beer_name: Hercules Double IPA
text: A: Pretty dark in color. A clear coppery color with a massive cream colored head that takes forever to go away. S: Pretty solid hit of pine hops with a little overripe mango and a hint of banana. T: I hate to say it, but I was a little disappointed by this one. The malts completely overpower the hops. There's a lot of caramel malt sweetness and a bit of pine hops, but the malts ride right over the hops. It's still a good beer, but far from being one of the better DIPAs I've had.
