HEINY

Heineken NV

A Dutch brewing company that makes beer and cider under brands like Heineken, Amstel, Birra Moretti, and Tiger, sold around the world. It began in 1864 when 22-year-old Gerard Adriaan Heineken bought an Amsterdam brewery called "De Hooiberg" (The Haystack) and renamed it after himself. Fun fact: the iconic green bottle started as a post-World War II workaround when brown glass was scarce, and the red star on the label traces back to medieval brewers' guilds.
