Great Divide Hercules Double IPA: 30

Taste: 10 Finish: 10 Visual: 5 Aroma: 5

It is a great golden amber color. The aroma is full of floral hops and honey. Lots of hops up front but then the alcohol numbs the tongue a bit allowing it to flow over. Honey undertones. Then mid-tongue the hops kick back in through the finish. There's also some citrus as expected.

Really, this is a flawless big IPA. It does not disappoint. One of the best I've had easily on par with 90 minute. Maybe better. I'll have to try them side by side.
