Picked this up at my local supermarket. Was scanning the ales on offer and dicided to give this a go as I was already regularly buying the Goose Island Session IPA's and enjoy them as a "through the day" drink.
Poored into my trusty Seef tumbler.
The very pale golden colour immediately draws my attention. It's... water with some yellow colour...hmmmmm?!? Thin soapy foam on top. Cute little pearls seek to escape to the surface.
Non existant smell. Metallic. Some malty caramel in the air somewhere.
Same with the flavours, metallic sensation then becomes a bit salty as traces of the malts emerge. And gone before it even started.
Aftertaste is still metallic, hints of bread or wheat cookies.
Mouthfeel is dry and just slightly sour.
My wife will love the low alcohol content, but this is just watered down beer. It lacks in everything.
On the genre, what can I say. Belgian brewers copy Americans nowadays. This one, however, is not convincing (or fooling) anyone.

330ml bottle. Pale golden & clear with a short-lived, thin head. Smells & smells strongly of fresh lemons & spicy Belgian yeast. Thin mouthfeel with moderate carbonation and a dry, dusty finish. A good effort for the super low ABV but personally I’d choose to drink one Duvel over three of these.

very light in color, straw yellow; little haze to it lots of medium bubbled carbonation, small white head, leaving lacing
a little stinky feet, lime, overripe mango, unpleasant
little Pilsener malt, but also restrained bitterness for a session IPA. This keeps it in balance. not much to show for
A bit harsh carbonation, but ultimately refreshing, thin
I like the Duvel brewery, but I do not understand this brand. There is nothing interesting about this beer though it is not bad. The aroma is a bit unpleasant

Light golden color with a thin head.
Aroma with notes of medicinal herbs, chamomile, pineapple juice and white bread.
Flavor with notes of bread, herbs, mild pine, orange citrusy and a bit of resin. Dry and bitter aftertaste .
Light to watery body with appropriate carbonation.
I found this too thin. It has potential after beefing it up all elements. But it may just turn out to be their current IPA.
