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.

Bottle. Pours orange amber with an off white head. The aroma has a caramel malty sweetness with herbal and floral hops. The flavor has sweet malt, herbal hops, and a little bit of grassy bitterness in the finish. Decent, but really not that impressive.

Bottle. The Rover. Gothenburg. Cloudy amber colour. Hops, grape, pine, caramel malt, apricots, faint rubber. Not bad, but probably better if more fresh. An easy drinking IPA with a malty backbone.

Pours a dark hazy copper color ,with a medium white head. Smells of big piney hops, grapefruit citrus, and yeast. Pretty sharpnose. The flavor was very crisp and biting. Huge hop bitterness hits you right away. Big juicy citrus hops and grapefruit just soak the taste buds fully. I would have thought this was stronger than 6.5% abv. vrey big flavor, drys out slightly in the finish, but leaves a big hop afterataste on the palate. Very solid IPA.

11.5 oz. bottle served in a Duvel tulip. Bottle conditioned. Poured a hazy dark copper with a finger of off white head. Plenty of carbonation. Citrusy hop aroma, plenty of malt. Slight oxidation, but in a good way. Some fruity aromas from yeast. Big malt body, then more of the citrusy hops. There is a fair amount of bitterness here. Drying finish from the hops with more of that citrus. This beer comes on a lot bigger than 6.5%. I really enjoyed this one, interesting.

Caramel colored with an off white head. Aroma could be bigger and has caramel, pine, and some roasted malt. Flavor is caramel, fruit, grapefruit, and pine. It is balanced toward the sweet side. Feel is a bit powdery but otherwise is medium bodied. Finish is floral. Very nice!

Good Assertive IPA. Spicy Earthy hops, really not my favorite, though. Good malt backbone

Bottle. Stong hops, grains and soil aroma. Dark amber colour with huge beige head. Bitter hops flavour although with fine notes of oats, raisins and nuts which adds to the dry aftertaste.

This beer loses points for being in a 11.5 oz bottle. WHat gives?? It was an interesting blend between what tasted like Fuggle hops and cascade(?), but thats just a guess. It had the maltiness of an English IPA and lacked the bite of an American IPA. This beer is searching for an identity.
