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.

The description is so accurate. Very hoppy, very delicious. Sharp bitterness in the aftertaste.

Poured a dark copper color with a white to off-white head. Decent lacing. The aroma was grassy, light citrus and malt. The flavor was malt, grassy and citrusy hops and some definite pencil shavings. Lots of malt, you can definitely feel the English influence. Not an aggresive IPA, more of an English Pale Ale. Expensive for what it was.

Cloudy amber and a thin white head. Smells like pine. belgian yeast. Thin butter like feel. I think the bottle might have some age because it seems toned down. Very smooth with a roasty finish.

Bountiful head, slow to diminish. Lots of lumpy lace on the glass. Amber, on the side of darker, a little bit of cloudiness. Plenty of floral hop in the nose. Mild, lighter malt is also present. Tastes like a traditional American IPA. Lots of harsher bitter flavored hops. Initial sip barely shows the neutral malt presence. The rest is bitterness through the long aftertaste. Good body, low carbonation. A very good example of the style.

Extremely creamy and sugary IPA that had some very unusual spices. Orange peel, but sugary orange peel. Lots of sugars and the malts are huge in this one. It almost coats the mouth. Very good, and the hops are pungently bitter too, like unrefined bitter. Too bad it’s so expensive for just a 6.5% abv ipa...

Bottle. Dark orange-brown pour, a little carbonation and an aroma that was citrus and very herbal. Flavor was very different from my everyday hop heavy IPA, very peppery, flowery and finished with some nice hops and very bitter. Way better than I expected!

Butters Big Blowout - Pours a cloudy dark amber with off white head. Malty caramel aroma with hint of hops. Hops comes through on this one. Medium bodied. Not bad

Butters’ cellar reduction blowout whatever tasting. Its been good so far. Copper color with a touch of red. Nose is of sweet caramel. Malt and hop as well. Nicely balanced aromas. Palette and flavors fall short with their intensity. Little spice just a little bitter. Pretty good. Not bad at all.
