the reaction leads to production of hydrogen gas ...

2Al(s) + 6HCl(aq) → 2Al3+(aq) + 6Cl-(aq) + 3H2(g)

They're an aerosol of HCl droplets, so avoid breathing them. Hydrogen is also given off. Al has a thin film of Al2O3 on it, so there are two reactions. Al2O3 +6HCl=2AlCl3 +3 H2O, and
Al+3HCl=AlCl3 +3/2 H2.
