beer_name: Hercules Double IPA
text: Presentation: 12oz brown pop top bottle with nice label Apperance: Hazy dark gold beer with a big ivory large bubbled cap...good retention Smell: Big toasted caramel and grapefruit/piney hops...everything's nicely in balance here, the hops aren's as aggressive as I thought...I'm looking forward to the first sip Taste: This is VERY nicely balanced with earthy hops and loads of biscuity malt keeping each other nicely in check Mouthfeel: Medium/heavy with a bit of noticeable alcohol Drinkability: High Conclusion: Nice very well-balanced DIPA...nothing smashing or revolutionary, but quite a solid brew, one I plan to return to. Yet another reason why this brewery just plain rocks.
