vandeStreek Grapefruit IPA
By vandeStreek · Netherlands
“A juicy low-alcohol IPA with an extra kick of grapefruit”, vandeStreek says: under 0.5%, with natural grapefruit aroma on the same four hops as Playground. 16 kcal per 100ml.
At under 0.5% ABV, this isn’t alcohol-free under UK guidance, which keeps the term for 0.05% or less. We list it with alcohol-free beers, as UK shops do. How UK labels work

What is Grapefruit IPA?
vandeStreek is an independent brewery in Utrecht, in the Netherlands, run by the brothers Sander and Ronald van de Streek. They started homebrewing in 2010, sold their first beers in 2013, brewing in other breweries’ kettles, and opened their own brewery in Utrecht in 2017, the year they added alcohol-free beers. Its alcohol-free range has six beers, all under 0.5%. The UK shops sell Playground, an IPA, Fun House, a New England IPA, Bumper, a blond, and Grapefruit IPA.
vandeStreek describes “a nice bitter base where the grapefruit flavor connects beautifully”, with fresh, fruity character and a bitter kick. It uses natural grapefruit aroma rather than juice, and the same Columbus, Mosaic, Citra and Cascade hops and 60 IBU as Playground.
vandeStreek’s website gives 16 kcal and 2.5g of sugars per 100ml, about 53 kcal a can. We haven’t scored it yet.
