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.

12 oz. bottle from Princeton’s. -Straw color, foamy white head. Typical wheat/yeast flavor from a Belgian. Sweet, slightly hoppy flavor with a dry and slightly bitter finish. Unique beer but I’m not sure I like this much hoppiness in my Belgians.

22oz. bottle. Fruity, mildly sweet aroma, some honeyed golden apple, pear and floral notes, combined with a lightly dusty, doughy and earthy yeast character. Clear light golden in color with a lasting, bubbly head. Flavor is comprised of some pale malt sweetness up front, followed by a blend of spicy, peppery bitterness, herbal hop flavor and some mild bubblegum and melon easters, finishing up with a drying acidity, some lemon citrus and a faintly alcoholic presence. Mouthfeel is clean, soft and effervescent, with a medium-full body. Held my interest.

Bottled at RBESG ’07. Clear golden. Sweaty grapefruit aroma. Dry with clean, rounded mouthfeel. Perfumy and very hoppy with lingering bitter finish. Very American style, and quite good at that.

Hazy yellow color with a big white head like beaten egg whites. Light spicey nose. Bitter orange peel and spice flavors, with some earthy yeast notes. Light and crisp, but not very complex.

Sparkling gold, creamy white head. Soft cotton candy and citrus perfume nose rides soft peppery herbal tones. Hints of yeast at room temp. Lightly spiced candy flavors round to a soft earthy hop note. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation, soft bittersweet finish. Drinkable, but definitely not GD’s best effort...
