Commercial Description:
Corruption, Greed, and Lust. They're all represented on the hooks of today. Tomorrow, they'll be stinging Gluttony, Desire, and Sloth. Go ahead. Tell yourself you're better than all of them. But you can't. Hell can be funny like that. Down here it's all just sin. Everyone here is screwed just like you. They don't care who you sliced, diced, or cheated. No on is escaping this heinous place. Your roommate is an ax murderer. Eerily, he's not threatening. How can he be? Here, the Fallen Angel owns your body, mind and soul. As such, no one can take your life. It's already been taken. Or was it given? Neither matters. Did you seriously think you were living a virtuous life. At least Satan serves beer in Hell. He brews it himself right there in that flame stoked cauldron. Rumor has it the beer is straw yellow, bone dry and simply labeled Inferno.

Hazy, pale, thin creamy head. Spicy honied aroma with marshmallow and wheat. Sugary with lemon and spices I can’t put my finger on and a slightly dirty finish. Not bad.

Pours gold topped with a nice white head from the 750ml. bottle at Port Brewing/Lost Abbey Brewing Co. (San Marcos, CA): Fruity nose, barnyard spicy yeast taste, as well as flavors of sweetened citrus, dough, and toasted earthy hops. A nice alcohol warming takes the finish. Drinkability: Brings to mind drinking a Saison. Pairing: Ripened goat cheese, chicken caesar salad. Rebuy: Yes. #319 on 02032010, DG.

This beer really grows on you as you sip it and it warms. Nice spicy, fluffy, well rounded and full of flavor. I’m not really a Belgium fan but this draws me in.

Bottle@Home. Nice balanced beer with a small bite. Flavours are OK but it’s a bit clean.

Impossible cork. Pours a dense golden/amber with a fine settlement of silt. Unremarkable yet creamy head settles to a thin film of white. Yeast-heavy aroma with punctuations of citrus rind. Otherwise heady banana bread with sour milk/sharp cheese and a dash of cinnamon spiciness. Smooth, creamy mouthfeel, moderately carbonated, a little thin... like when you quaff a sip of skim milk but were expecting 2%. Tart, fruity flavor with unripened apple, pineapple, sourdough, orange peel, low alcohol, low maltiness along the lines of dark fruit on a biscuit, no sweetness. Mild chalkiness lingers on the palate. ~~~~~~~~~~~ 750 ml purchased about 3 weeks ago at Binny’s, Algonquin, IL.

Had this one bottled, thanks Jim! Cloudy, medium yellow pour with a thick, tan head, banana and orange in the nose, strawberry, clovey, spicy with a potent alcohol finish.

Bottle. Hazy golden yellow pour with a very copious head that formed into stiff peaks. The aroma consisted of grape, apple, citrus, and dough aspects. The head had a highly bitter taste and the beer itself was somewhat sweet and strongly sour and bitter accompanied by a very lively mouth feel.

Bottle shared by Ben. Poured a hazy orange color with a large frothy white head that mostly lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy tart citrus, floral and yeast aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. This is a very drinkable beer and my expectations where met.

pours hazy yellow with massive thick white head. aroma is light and fruity, bubble gum, some citrus hops, and a touch of spice. drinks crisp with fruits, straw, bubble gum, noticeable citrus hop bite that was very well done, a very light spice, and a dry finish. very very tasty.
