HEINEKEN AFTERWORK: FIRST SIP HOUSE | PURE MALT BEERTAILS, BITES AND VIBES

The first sip of Pure Malt Premium Quality Heineken® is hard to wait for. So don’t. Welcome to Heineken’s First Sip House - Heineken®’s pop-up afterwork destination where your first sip is the key that unlocks a night of refreshing discoveries.

Entry is FREE and comes with a FREE Heineken - just show up, take that first sip, and let the night begin.

FIRST SIP BAR — Pure Malt in every sip. Pure Malt in every bite.

After selling out last year, June Baek and Justin Hammond are back at the First Sip House with an all-new menu of four innovative Pure Malt bar bites and beertails. With Heineken's Pure Malt elevating every flavour in each sip and bite, explore four distinct pairings exquisitely crafted to make that first sip taste even better:

• Punched Out — Pure Malt delivers a perfectly balanced taste. Tangy Tuna Tartare with Pure Malt powder on warm crostini, paired with a Soju Bomb of Heineken Original and Omija berry.
• The Recharge — Pure Malt, premium quality ingredients. Quality in, quality out. Rich, earthy Mushroom Parfait with a Pure Malt balsamic caramel you finish yourself, paired with a Heineken Silver Spritz of grapefruit, ginger and thyme.
• The Discovery — Pure Malt adds richness, depth, and complexity to everything it touches. Malted Peanut Butter Soba with cured egg yolk and Shichi-mi tōgarashi, paired with a layered Malt Sour of Heineken Silver and silky malt foam.
• The Payoff — Pure Malt takes craftsmanship, and craftsmanship takes time. 48-hour slow-cooked Beef Short Rib Tacos with a 3-day malted mole, paired with a Heineken Michelada, you may finish your way - Tabasco, wasabi, or sambal.
