Hercule Stout Brasserie des Legendes Belgian Stout 9% 330ml bottle
£5.95
La Hercule is a “Stout” beer : English type, black in color, brewed with roasted barley (like coffee) and very smooth.
The Hercule is considered by many to be a classic – very malty, but dry, with a hint of sweetness in the finish, and perfectly hopped. It has a very distinctive and intoxicating spicy aroma of fresh spruce that suddenly, irresistibly, fills the room when the swing-top is released.
Agatha Christie’s Detective Hercule Poirrot (probably Belgium’s best-known citizen, and a native son of Ellezelles) is the namesake for the “Hercule” Stout. It is the only distinctively Belgian stout, and every bit as sturdy and dapper as its namesake.
