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.

the rumor! "straw yellow, bone dry and simply labeled inferno" ... well, there’s quite the description actually and the label is detailed: hazy, golden straw body, practically dead, with a thin white head and a disappearing lace; doughy, a bit of acidic citrus, and it is actually pretty dry; good.

Bottle from the brewery at the Cuvee / Anniversary release. Pretty awesome label they made for this. Light yellow color with big white bubbles and spotty lacing. Aroma is a lovely blend of aromatic hops, fruity orange citrus and pear esters, and a toasted bread yeast tone. Grassy flavor with more citrus and yeast underneath. Very dry and carbonated finish that leaves a slight sting on the palate.

750mL bottle. Yellow-gold color with a small white head. Banana and bubblegum estery aroma, faint spiciness and grassy hops. Herbal, grassy hops over a subdued maltiness. Spicy and citric yeast flavors permeate. Tinge of fruitiness in the finish, with residual hop presence. Mouthfeel is a light medium, rather dry.

750ml bottle from the brewery. Murky, pale yellow in color. Small amount of carbonation, some lacing. Light hops and Belgian yeast dominated the aroma, some banana and citrus as well. Brew had a very dry, crisp finish. Reminded me of a mellowed out RR Damnation.

Golden yellow poured from the bottle with a small white head. Nice aromas of yeast and a little spice.Very easy on the palate. Dry hoppiness without much sweetness or maltiness. A bit of citrus.Excellent sustained finish as are all Lost Abbey beers.Good beer.
