COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Hercules Premium lager is craft brewed in small batches by master brewers. Every pound of malt, every whole real hop is weighed out and added by hand. It’s brewed more slowly than mass produced beer so that time and yeast can work in harmony to remove the harshness that ’fast’ beer can retain. The result is a distinctive sparkling lager with a delicate citrus nose.

BlackHaddock (2367) - Shropshire, - NOV 16, 2012
Yet another beer by this brewery where they don’t add their name to the ’credits’. Picked up in ’Rhythm and Booze’ near Blundell Park, Cleethorpes. 330ml bottle: best before 13 Nov 2012, opened during one of my random drinking evenings on 16 Nov 2012, some three days late. The beer was poured into a Duvel glass at home: golden with a slight haze with a fading white head from the start. The beer had a sour feel from the begining, might have been skunked in the fairly bright shop, I’ve only had it a week. Bland and boring, glad I only bought one of them. To be fair it is really just another supermarket brew from Hepworth and should be viewed as such.

rauchbier (3399) - Isle Of Beer, Lincolnshire, ENGLAND - NOV 26, 2012
Bottle, from Rhythm & Booze Barton-upon-Humber. Gold, thin shortlived white head and low condition. Gentle herbal hop and sweet honey notes in the nose, quite soft in the mouth with a gentle malty sweetness bordering on estery balanced with a low hop note, finish is short and sweet with a low chalky bitterness.

kwik-lime (868) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - SEP 12, 2012
Bottle sold at the Mercure Hotel in Exeter, while watching Andy Murray secure the 2012 Us Open. Perhaps I was just in a good mood because of that, but this was a really enjoyable lager. Pours with a good head that lasts nicely, citrus and pear in the nose and a smooth, malty taste with good citrus character and a nice balance. Good craft lager.
