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.

Bottle poured golden yellow with an off white rocky head. Aroma of spices, clove, and yeast. Dry initial taste with a lighter body than expected. Light bread with a grassy hop bitterness. Slight fruit in the flavor. Went nicely with Thanksgiving.

Golden, sparkly. Fruity, spicy, herbal aroma. Big pale malt signature. Dry, herbal notes but also fairly malts in the finish. Tasty stuff.

Brewtopia bottle. Clear pale straw color. Sweetish, genever nose. Crisp, saison-like hop character. Fun fruitiness never becomes sweet or pop-like. Quality.

Bright orange body, cloudy and unfiltered, fluffy white head, spicey orange nose, pear, apple, bittered well in the early boil, no floral hop notes make it through, creamy and delightful

Bottle at Downtown Johnnie Browns. Very pale straw colour. Aroma is herbal with a soft pilsner malt base, chewy/bready yeasty components. Light black/green pepper as well. A touch of lemon balm citrusy character and a nice dusty dryness. As it warms the yeasty breadiness really becomes more expressive. There is a nice soft spiciness as well. Fairly herbal and dusty with a bit of light clove and coriander. Flavour shows just a kiss of mintiness as well. Fairly simple for these guys, but it is quite nice. Softly sweet towards the back. Pretty nice brew really.

Nov 15, 2008. Bottle. Pours cloudy, golden, with a medium white head, good lacing. Strong citrus smell, almost like a wit, with some hay and malt aromas too. Velvety, smooth, fairly thick body. Big malty, fruity sweet flavor but not at all cloying, a little apple and grapefruit. Well balanced, with a mildly bitter finish.

wow, not quite sure ive ever had a beer that fits its own description so well. This beer poured a cloudy straw yellow color with a big white head. Aroma was nice and spicey with hints of clover, some vineous character and yeast. Flavor was really spicey, wheaty, nice amount of hops, just almost hard to explain and extremely dry at the same time. this beer is more wine like than any that ive ever had. Excellent!
