Low on alcohol, high on flavour! Vedett Session IPA is the ideal choice when you have to go the distance. Because settling in for a session shouldn’t mean having to settle for anything less than a full-flavoured taste experience! Even before that first refreshing sip of Vedett Session IPA, the first thing that hits you is its intense aroma of citrus and pine resin. Hold it to the light and you would even say this golden, slightly cloudy Belgian ale glows. Taste it (finally!) and the initial burst of refreshing acidity slowly develops into a crisp, flavoursome bitterness. With a distinctly hoppy aftertaste that beckons for more.

330 ml. bottle. BBF 01 2019. Clear golden sparkling soapy white head, vaguely Duvel looking. Nose is mild esters, floral, hay, perfume, papery low soggy bread,.. Promising smell but taste is all soggy paper chalk, vague sweeter apple, weak chalk,… Taste is all soggy paper, bland, esters from the nose etc. is lost. It isn’t watery but it isn’t pleasant either, the body like coats your mouth in soggy paper and cotton. Not a fan.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Albert Heijn, Culemborg. Clear light golden with a white head. Citrus aroma with some graininess. Taste is medium bittersweet, with a bit watery body. That's ofcourse to be expected with such a low ABV so no real harm done here. Nice session beer.

Bottle @ home. Very watery and very boring. It's like a watered down pilsner with a very, very slight amount of extra hops. If you're looking for a good session IPA please skip this one.

Clear pale golden colour, tall foamy white head, slowly collapsing in a rather messy irregular way, patchy lacing. Aroma pale malts, orange, lychee. Light sweet and medium bitter taste, malty, grainy, fruity. Thinnish and mild bittersweet aftertaste, fruity notes, becomes rather metallic at the end, light body, watery texture, soft carbonation. Not bad for a low-alcohol beer,

Bottle from local AH, BB 12 2018. Almost clear light golden color, big rocky head. Aroma of a bit onion and garlic, peppery yeast. Slight citrus and coriander in taste, slight grainy malt, asft bitterness. Duvel extra extra light, but quite tasty. Ofcourse, nothing to do with session IPA, but I didnt expect that anymore from a rather large belgian brewer. Still, minus points need to be given.

33cl Bottle from Deka. Almost clear pale golden colour, white head. Aroma of some tropical fruits, some citrus, orange peel, light wort. Flavour is very grainy, dish rag, unpleasant, minerals, hops try to save the beer but fail unfortunately. Wouldn't order again. Light bodied.
