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.

Yeasty malt aroma. Hazy straw color. Very intense sweet flavor that dissipates fast. Some fruit notes, light color ones like peaches and pears. Light grainy, bread notes with a touch of hop zest. This gives the beer a crisp somewhat dry finish. Very drinkable. Very good just not that wow factor.

Bottle bought at Systembolaget. Cloudy orange, the white foam was not the world’s most beautiful. The aroma was quite fresh, green apples, yeast, straw, and a bit "detergent". The taste was a "typical Belgian taste" fruit, "detergent" and yeast. Aftertaste was long and dry. Refreshing and easy to drink despite the relatively high alcohol content.

750ml bottle from Drinks over Dearborn, in Chicago. Pours a hazy golden color with offwhite head and foamy lacing. Beautiful aroma of citrus and ripe appricot. Nice flavor, balance of sweet dried fruit and slight bitter. Traces of spice and ripe fruit. Nice lingering sweetness and dryness.

Pours a beautiful orange-copper liquid with a huge off-white head, Aroma’s of citrus, lemon zest, grapefruit, toast. and some Dupont saison tones. The taste is medium bitter and mildly sour, a tiny bit citrussy. Very well balanced, Creamy medium body with soft carbonation. Wonderful bitter finish which stays forever. Great stuff.

Cork explode off the top of this bottle. User warning! Beer pours clouy, golen color with a massive, retaine egg white colore head. Aromas of dust, sweat, band aid and flowers, also earth. Flavor is alternately bitter an sweet. The finish is dry and astringent. This is an over all enjoyable beer experience.

Corked bottle. Pale golden color. Melon, pineapple and lemon in the strong aroma. Loads of tropical fruit and flowers in the somewhat tart, slightly alcoholic flavor. Hints of pepper. The fruit and pepper linger on in the aftertaste. Well balanced, tasty yet sticky beer.
