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.

Bottle at home. Very pale golden with white head. Sweet malts, bread, green tea, lemon, tropical fruit, grass. Moderate sweet and bitter. Thin to medium body and soft carbonation. Feels soft and drinks like citra dry hopped mineral water. Flimsy but tasty, not complaining.

Bottle at de koninck. Pours slightly hazed blonde. Full, stable , creamy white head. Smell is citrussy, fresh, hoppy. Taste is surprisingly hoppy, fruit forward, malty backbone. The selection of alternative grains give this beer a more complex backbone, and a remarkable full body. I am surprised to find such low ratings on this beer .... Is it simply because it's a bigger brand? Or am I plain wrong for really diggin' this ( especially since it's by a big brewer !) a blind test should confirm my wrog or right here. Up untill than, keep up the great work, as this is a pretty good session !
