    So, I really enjoy putting together themed tastings for my friends and family. My next theme I'm working on is Heaven & Hell.

    Here's what I've come up with:

    Heaven:
    The Lost Abbey - Deliverance
    The Lost Abbey - Angel's Share
    DuClaw - Sweet Baby Jesus
    Evil Twin - Even More Jesus


    Hell:
    Surly - Darkness
    Three Floyds - Dark Lord
    Anchorage - A Deal with the Devil

    I need some other suggestions/recommendations. Let me know what you think. Cheers!

    Duvel! Also I feel DFH WWS and 120 black and tan should be part of the tasting since it is call Heaven and Hell.

    Really anything from Lost Abbey as they have the whole Biblical motif, Inferno, Serpent's Stout. Founder's Devil Dancer (if you can find one).

    Seeing SpaceEurope bring up Duclaw just reminded me about, Devil's Milk and Divine Retribution.

    I believe Dieu Du Ciel Peche Mortel fits in the Hell category.

    I second Avery's Mephistopheles, as well as Avery BEAST. Founders Devil Dancer is a good choice, but it is quite expensive! Ommegang Seduction if you can find it (good chocolate stout). NEBCO 668 Neighbor of the Beast (Satan is on the can, and it's a fucking delicious brew, win-win).

    It's a triple IPA from Founders that is released in the late spring/early summer. Due to the high ABV I think people do age it, so it shouldn't be too difficult to trade for 1-2 bottles of it.
