Commercial Description:
Hades is brewed with a rare Belgian yeast strain that gives a complex spicy flavor and aroma. Noticeable hops and medium malt character make it an extremely well-balanced, crisp ale. Hades goes great with a bowl of fresh mussels, crusty bread, and virtually any artesian cheese.

Light clear, yellow body with a beautiful display of lacing, but sadly diminishes quickly. Aroma composed of Sharp malt, spices sensations.. A crisp and clear tasting bear that is very approachable, in the tradition of Great Divide brews. I imagine best after a day on the slopes. Lacks the complication of even New Belgium’s Tripple, but certainly fun to drink.

Bottle. Golden colour, small head. Potent grassy and fruity hop nose. Good fruity hoppiness. A solid Belgian-style blond ale.

Slight, bland aroma. Dry - not a lot of flavor - certainly no sign of "spices" as advertised on the label. A bit of a waste of time and money.

Bottle. Cardemom, anis and orange in the aroma. Sweetish flavor with orange and various spices (cardemom, coreander, anis). Also spices in the finish. Sticky mouthfeel. Just a touch of alcohol.

Bottled. Aroma has citrus, some grain. Clear, golden coloured beer with a white head. The taste is sweet, slightly bitter, has citrus. Boring.

Bought this for the wife to drink after I sampled. We both thought this was a Duvel LIGHT, and thats not in a good way.

Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a pint glass. The color is a light yellow with two fingers of white head. Some nice lacing as well. The smell is pretty peppery with some a hint as honey and a sweet sugary flavor. The taste is a bit citrus with some pear, banana and other fruit flavors. Some spices mixed into this beer like clove. The feel of this beer light and pretty easy going down. Is easy on the pallet and is refreshing with is spicy, crisp flavor.

This is interesting. Kind of like a tripel, but still very different. Very light, slightly hazy gold with a light head; aromas of of hops and spice give way to a fruity aroma as it warms - almost exactly like a sweet white wine. Has very prominent grain flavors with a crisp hop bite; light and very refreshing. Good lawnmower ale; not very complex, but pleasant.
