Commercial Description:
Corne du diable (French for "Horn of the devil") is a contemporary interpretation of the classic English India Pale Ale. This new style, born on the west coast of North America, is characterized by stronger and hoppier beers. The result is a red ale expressing caramel flavours coming from the malt, sharp bitterness and powerful hop aromas, thanks to dry hopping.

Rating number 500. Dark amber pour with excellent one finger off white head. Very nice lacing. Aroma is grapefruit and grassy notes with some floral characteristics as well. Quite pronounced and multi-faceted in its hop character. Sweet malt comes through to create a nice balance, but only barely. Flavor is an excellent balance of bready and caramel malts, with a powerful kick of grassy and floral hops. Citrus character is not as pronounced, but is still noticeable. Full bodied palate with mild carbonation and a surprising cream like texture. Very well put together. An excellent example of a great style.

Pours a teak color with a small white head. Aroma has nice hop content- grapefruit, tangerine, and floral notes. Flavor is quite good- Hits the standard flavors of a good IPA right on. Good stuff.

Bottle split with Pat. Pours a hazy reddish brown body with small white head. The aroma is Southern Tier Mokah - didnt clean my glass out enough. Taste is smooth, delicious well-balanced hop.

Another old rating. Aroma was of some citrus hops and a little biterness to this one. A solid beer but not that great of an IPA.

Bottle thanks to MrBunn. Aroma is fantastic of pineapple spruce and some grapefruit rind.Pours a orangey murky color.Nice clinging head. Good bitterness to it. Flavor is a bit sweet and grapefruity. Not bad at all

Bottle. Pours a murky orange with a very small head and massive pine and resin aromas with a little pineapple and brown sugar. Flavor is a little too brown sugary sweet and finished with crisp conifer forest and alcohol notes.

Pours a hazy dark amber with a off white head. A sweet malt with a strong caramel toffee nose. Taste is about the same with a good bitter front. A very unique take on an American IPA. The caramel notes in the nose and taste were very unexpectied yet very welcoming. I like how this beer is different from what I thought I was going to get.

Pours a really nice deep orange color with a thin off white head. Aroma is toasted malt, a little citrus, some biscuit smells. Flavor is a little hoppy but more on the sweet malty side with a hint of toast and bread. Kind of yeasty. Not overly bitter, and maybe a bit more towards the English style of things. Interesting beer.
