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.

Ranging between 10,99$ (!) and 14,99$ for a 6-pack in Quebec’s Self-Aborted Country (...). I saw it at 4,99$ per 341ml bottle on the website of a liquor store in Washington, D.C.! An impressive beer, very bitter, with powerful malt flavors, warming with a hint of sweetness hidden in this well balanced kick-ass-power-brew. Grapefruit, caramel, pine, freshness (yeah, it’s in there!), long aftertaste. Great in bottle, delightful on tap at the sympathetic brewpub in Saint-Jérôme, a now occasional beer at Montreal’s brewpub. I’m really glad they bottled this one. Official winner of the best-IPA-in-Quebec title, with both Hopfenstark Postcolonial and Bièropholie’s amazing IPAs down on the floor bleeding seriously (all others have been slaughtered brutally). ADDED: Hello, my love, I just dropped by to tell you how I grew to love you more and more, how your perfume is making me lose my head, how you taste delightfully fruity, bitter and wet. Your moisten taste reminds me of a greek baklava. Be sure you’ll stay for long in my life! I love you. You are amazing!

Bottle. It pours hazy amber with a big off white head. Aroma is lovely, malt and lots of hops with notes of strawberries, grapes and hay. Unfortunately the flavour isn’t that intense, mainly dry citrus and malt with weak notes of hay. It has a tart and little to acidic aftertaste. But it’s a good one anyway.

12oz bottle from Belmont Station in Portland. Pours a deep amber with a moderate sized amber head. Very grassy aroma with a decided hint of apple as well. Nice apple and pine hop taste as well with a decidedly bitter and spicy finish. Quite enjoyable, now I need to pick up a Peche Mortel.

Bottle at Haket, Göteborg. Deep amber color, very nice lasting offwhite head. Fruity aroma, hops, apples, peach, tropical fruits, milky and creamy notes. Fruity, hoppy flavor, fruits, apples, peach, grass, and metal notes. Grapes and fruitsd and hops in the finish. Very nice body. One of the best IPA I ever have tried.

Bottle. I think this came from Glouglouburp. Pours amber with a thin off white head. Smells of perfume, wildflowers, hay. Tastes refreshing and spicy with some peppery splashes and a nice grassy finish. Not a typical IPA, but a very enjoyable one.

Bottled at Haket, Gothenburg. Deep amber with a creamy, tan head. Soapy, grassy, flowery aroma. Loads of fruits and flowers in the flavour. Balanced and late bitterness.

Malty and dusty. Lots of hops and English style IPA mixed in. The wonderful brewery that isn’t cheap. But this is an nice musty beer. Citrus and caramel mixed in as well.

Crushed with Jakebra. Equal doses of hops and nast in both nose and flavor. Middle of the pack, very average IPA.
