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.

Smells of Saison from 2 feet away. Peppery, clean and grainy. It poured nice and has a cloudy straw color that is both plain and pretty. Mouthfeel surprises as it’s more oily than spritzy. Alcohol taste is non-existent. Refreshing. Has a creamy-malt background and is a beautifully put-together beer. Good balance.!

750ml bottle: Deep gold pour with a sizeable frothy head that leaves surprisingly little lace. Amazingly clean aroma with lots of hay, fresh dough, lemon, white pepper, clean alcohol and fresh cut grass. Moderate carbonation leads into an esthery experience that offers granny apple, sweet pear, underripe peaches. The yeast plays off the moderately maltiness that adds light caramel, straw and earth to the mix. Finishes a bit sweeter than would be preferred, but this is well built and flaw free. I guess imitation is indeed the most sincere form of flattery. Nicely done Lost Abbey.

Thanks BOLTZ! Pours a cloudy gold with a decent size white head. Aroma of citrus, pepper, and yeast. Incredibly easy to drink, 8.5% ABV is well hidden. I love the artwork on the bottle. Could write a lot more, but it has been one hell of a week.

Bottle: Poured a yellow color with a light head. The aroma was spicy, peppery, malty and citrus. The flavor was similar, spicy sweet and smooth. Overall, my first experience with Lost Abbey and it was a good one. Looking for more from them.

750mL bottle. Pours hazy golden, capped with a big off white head. Yeasty, peppery aroma, with citrus and malt. Flavor is a bit sweeter than the aroma, with sweet malt, earthy hops, spice, and yeast. Long, dry, hoppy finish. Very drinkable.

The hell is up with that description??Who wrote that? Charles Manson??Aroma is somewhatmalt and tart yeast. Taste is slighty fruity malt with harsh drying finish. Decent but somewhat common for Lost Abbey

Bottle. Pale orange pour with some white head. Aroma is light bubblegum, belgian spices, some pale belgian malt and a little richer malt as well. Flavor is similar, citrusy though also, sweet and light bubblegum, but offset by spices with a sort of grassy finish.
