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.

Deep amber-orange beer with a thin tan head. Aroma is lightly orangey and fruity. Light peach and pink grapefruit as well. There is a lightly zesty/spicy note to this beer as well. The flavour is hoppy, but not all that bitter. Grapefruit and citrus and a kiss of light caramel on the back. Quite a nice beer, really.

bottle. Hazy orange in color with a medium off white head. Aroma of citrus hops- a good amount of cascade- maybe some amarillo, some darker crystal malt, and some earthy resinous hops. Taste has a good amount of hop character- earth and citrus, some light sticky crystal malts, and a moderate lingering bitterness that gets a touch abrasive. Nice IPA that is a bit above average.

A - hops are clear and abudant. traces of raisins, light fruits, faint whiff of cinnamon 7+ V - large bubble head about one finger in depth, copper red in hue, prominent lacing 4 T - spicy bite to it, stronger cinnamon which fades into a bitter hop blend, bitter sticks around 6 P - somewhat creamy, but the residual taste is flat and dull 2 O - fine enough, but I do not find much to make this stick out amongst other IPAs

bottle, from Sams quikstop or bluelight. Good aroma, sweet, bready, nutty, citrus, cardboard. Hazed brownish orange color, small head that stayed as a ring, minor lacing on the way down. Bitter sweet flavor, a sour bitter with hints of citrus, little tobacco. medium body creamy mouth feel, bitter dry finish. Good,aroma had some nice range. flavor was more straight forward.

<i>Bottle (34 cl) at Bishops Arms, Göteborg, Sweden</i>. Clear deep mahogny, rich beige head. Malty and caramelly, with pinye and citric hops, and with some dark berries. Medium bodied and smooth. Well balanced with a lingering soft bitterness. Very nice.

Bottle, for breakfast, during EBF 2008, Copenhagen. Slightly hazy deep amber look and a solid US pale ale taste. My notes say "too goddamn early to write good notes".
