Hercules Double IPA
Bottled date not on the label in typical locale. A: Orange-copper ale with less than a finger of creamy head which falls in a moment to a sheet of the same. spotty lacing. Excellent clarity. S: Sweet and nutty malts with nice earthy and citrus hops. Hints of toffee. Decent. T: Sweetness of malts are countered with substantial hop bitterness. Fairly one-dimensional as a beer. Some hints of resin and maybe even a touch of mint? M: Medium body with low carbonation. Silken feel. Dry finish. O: Beer is good, easily drinakble for 10%ABV. The bottle date would have been nice, and likely would help me out on the judgment of the beer, but such as it is - face value. Not likely to buy again.
