8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Poured from 473mL can (thanks Travis). Black with minimal beige head. Really nice coffee, chocolate, the bourbon doesn't really come through besides a feint booziness, but this is actually quite nice and balanced. I'm assuming they used the coffee that they roast on site. Good stuff.

473mL can, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma has some herbal notes, some bready malt, and some grassiness. Flavour is herbal, with lots of bready malt, grassiness, herbal notes. and some spiciness. Low bitterness, kind of lacking crispness. It's alright.

Poured from 375mL bottle (2020 vintage). Hazy golden orange with small dissipating white head. Mild oak, acidic but not overbearingly so, some soft earthy citrus notes. A good first spon ferm beer from Hercules. It's probably good this has aged a bit or it may have been too acidic, enjoyable.

Quite a soft hop profile and very low carbonation. Easy drinking.

Poured from 473mL can (citra rye pale ale version; bb 09/24). Cloudy pale yellow with small white head. Good hit of citra hops, mild rye malt, very yeasty - too much yeast soup. A cleaner version of this would be nice, but overly hazy. Officially now the top rater of Hercules beers!

Poured from the tap (finally tied solidfunk for top rater of this brewery... sorry bud, I'm aiming for #1). Dark mahogany brown with full beige head. Toasted nuts, clean and simple, perhaps slightly muted, but decently made.

Poured from the tap. Clear pale blonde with small white head. Muted wheaty esters, feint floral hops, a bit timid. Meh.

Poured from the tap (the description says they've updated the hops with Simcoe and Motueka on top of the original Citra and Mosaic (could be a new rating version). Lightly hazed blonde gold with small white head. Belgian yeast, esters, light hopping. The hop character is a nice background characteristic, would prefer less esters though. Okay.
