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.

20-JAN-2012, bottle @Bishops Arms CPH, with Ulkløbben. Golden with lasting high white head. Belgian yeasty nose with banana, cloves, and the works. Very belgian-like yeasty taste as well. Very dry and extremely smooth. Fine Belgian.

Cloudy, light copper in color. Head is thick, frothy, white in color. Lacing is okay. Citrusy aroma. Salty pretzels is also in the aroma. Peppery and some alcohol burn. Semi-creamy in texture. Thee is a tad bit of choclatyness in the flavor. I was expecting more spice in the flavor but still.a good beer.

750 ml. bottle- Pours hazy straw golden with a nice creamy pillowy white head. Aroma is yeasty, pepper spice, citrusy and fresh. The taste is very creamy, yeasty, banana, coriander. Body is medium, mouthfeel is full and creamy, carbonation is full and bubbly, love how it feels on the palate. Overall I really loved this golden Belgian strong ale, It could have had more spice, was hoping for more pepper spice, but you can’t always get what you want.

Thisis12ptfont (80) - Los Angeles, CA, California, USA - DEC 29, 2011
Smells of floral hops, citrus, pines, orange and light vanilla. Pours a beautiful light golden color with an enormous foam top. Taste is of powerful citrus and fruit with a genius malt and hop combo. Finish is thoroughly bitter and leaves you wanting more. Overall, a pleasant bitter hop taste with a spectacular explosion of fruity citrus flavor. This is a massive tasting beer with a plethora of flavors. I’d give this an A+

A - pours light golden orange with two fingers head, some lacing. S - yeasty Belgian cloves earthy. M - light body with very high carb. Tastes - On the nose, earthy spices cloves anise? and subtle tropical fruits- citrus orange pineapple. Spicy yeast Belgian middle. Light sweets died fruits malty end. O - just above average belgian beer. Spicy notes and fruits are a plus. Drinkable, but not overly complex. 5/5+

Pours an opaque orange with a thick, fluffy white head. Aroma is Belgian yeast, grass, citrus, pine, spicy. Flavor is nice; lots going on. Strong alcohol flavor, citrus, bitter orange peel, sour, clove, Belgian bite. High carbonation is a little much for me. Otherwise, quite decent and drinkable.
