Hercule Stout
Popping the swing top on this one nearly woke the whole neighbourhood! Poured dark burgundy/black with an off-white collar. Oily petrol aroma at first with a bit of aniseed and licquorice before a hint of roast coffee maltiness. Sweet and malty at first before a an intense, bitter, licquorice/aniseed aftertaste. Full bodied and lively brew that drinks very easily for an +8 % stout but, hey, who's complaining.
