vandeStreek Grapefruit 0.5% IPA Can (24 x 33cl) Utrecht, Netherlands.
A West Coast style IPA brewed using Columbus, Mosaic, Citra and Cascade; then infused and enhanced with grapefruit juice.
Fruity and citrus flavours of the hops combine with grapefruit as a perfectly balanced beer – spicy and very refreshing: an amazing thirst quencher
vandeStreek Brouwerij is a new craft brewery based in Utrecht in the Netherlands. The beers are modern, full of flavour, challenging and creative – above all, top quality.
Brothers Sander and Ronald Van de Streek started home brewing in 2010. Production was still just 50 ltr per brew in May 2013 when their beers were introduced to the public at the Utretch Beer Brewers Festival.
By 2016 a crowdfunding campaign allowed Ronald and Sander to become full time brewers, settle on a core range of beers and draw up plans for their own brewery, which opened for production in 2017.
vandeStreek brew a core range of seven beers including the Playground Non Alcoholic IPA. Then, in addition, they brew a ‘special’ every other month, complemented by both collaborations and ‘Barrel Aged’ beers from their growing stock of barrels.
