The only self-proclaimed ‘Belgian stout’ ââ¬â 9% by volume ââ¬â named after famed Belgian detective Hercule Poirrot and considered a World Classic.
Made in small batches, then lagered for ten days in German oak casks.
"The Hercule is considered by many to be a classic ââ¬â 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. This unique house character probably derives from the strains of yeast used by the brewery ââ¬â and possibly from the fermentation in oak ââ¬â because the beers are made entirely of malt and hops, without any spices or sugar."
