Brewed by Stadsbrouwerij Helderse Jongens in Den Helder, this Session IPA sits at 3.5% alcohol, bringing full IPA character in a lighter, more approachable form. The brewery, run by three passionate hospitality professionals, operates from Fort Westoever in the north of the Netherlands.

Expect prominent hop aroma and a fresh profile with restrained bitterness. The light colour and modest alcohol content make it easy drinking, yet the hoppy character remains the focal point. A stripped-down take on the style that doesn't sacrifice flavour for drinkability.
