Not sure if this is the right one. I got a few cans of Steam Brew session IPA's. Also 4.9% abv. So I reckon it is this one.

Can design is simular to the picture and kind of nice.
Picked up at the Liddl here in Holland, for not much more than 1 euro 50, was cheap, but not sure.

Looks, pale hazey lemon colour, poured at 6 degrees in a tulip glass, 1 finger foam with medium retention and lacing
Smells, malt and grapefruit
Mouthfeel: watery.
Taste: hops are nice, but too little body. Too much water. Lichee and mimosa. Which is not bad, but all too watery, And malts that overpower the hops.
But affordable and drinkable. An d judging on the foam, lazing and carbonation, a proper made beer.
Might be a good beer at lower temperatures on hot days.
Not for me.
Maybe for the mrs.

.5l can from Aldi. Hazy straw colored pour, skin of white head. Funky, fruity aroma, overripe stone fruit. Taste doesn't improve, fake melon and stone fruit flavorings, hard candy. Fizzy feel, ends so quickly, which is a good thing, because this is not very enjoyable.

L- Mid/dark golden. Pours clear. Brief bubble cap receded to leave traces. Minor haze. After 5mins it looks lifeless and dull.
S- Mild, subtle floral hints. These occasionally re-appear but don't come through in the taste etc.
T- Tastes vaguely adjuncty and a cross between a lager and a gentler IPA. Some hoppy dryness into the finish.
F- Quite dry, light in malts. Decent CO2 adds to sense of dryness.
O- Unmemorable. Nothing stands out that wants you to go and buy more; all pretty blah. It's currently scored at 81, ie 4/5, That's where I rate a notably solid beer; I'm unable to rate this anywhere near that level.
500ml can. Bought from Lidl, Cambridge, UK. BB: 12/2022

De Lidl. En Hotel Golf Trinidad Roquetas de Mar. En vaso de cepillos de dientes. Amarga, si, pero con un perfil que respira artificialidad por los 4 costados, entre metálico y jabonoso. Sin espuma

A relatively simple session IPA, with some yeasty notes, but not much hops aromas.

From Lidl in 440ml cans.
Pours cloudy pale yellow. A very thin foam, laces a bit like a lager.
Aroma is sweetened grapefruit.
Flavour is very sweet, lemonade, grapefruit citrus, sherberty finish.
Very light, half expect it to be wheat rather than barley. Easy drinking and quite simple pleasant flavours. Nothing particularly special, but not bad. What you want from a session ale I suppose!
