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, clear copper pour with a foamy head that settles over time. Aroma is dominated by pine and floral hops, but there is also a good amount of roasted, nutty caramel malt. The malt comes through more in the flavor, with lots of pine and grapefruit hops balancing the sweetness. A really nicely balanced IPA. I could enjoy a few of these!

Rather dark for an IPA. Fairly large tan head at first that sort of goes away after a minute. Lots of caramel in the aroma, with a dose of pine. The bitterness is all up front in this one with a sweet lasting caramel finish. A solid IPA but I’d like it to be a little hoppier.

Aroma of lots of caramel and toasted malts. The hops smell earthy and floral with light hints of pine and citrus. Darker than most, burnt orange more or less with a great lasting head and fantastic lacing. Lots of malt headed towards the toasty side for the most part. The hops follow through and are floral and citrusy, but not too bitter or over the top. I’m pretty sure my bottle was a touch oxidized, as the hops weren’t as vibrant as I thought, but it was still a good drinking ale.

Roasty, Toasty IPA. Pours with a lasting off-white head that was still there at the bottom of the glass. Smells of roasted malts, some burnt caramel, and bitter hops. Great IPA taste with a lot of roasted notes going on. Some citrus undertones are noticable but this one is dominated by its roasted character. Not bad, but not the most refreshing IPA either.

Really enjoyed this one, eh!!! The beer was a beautiful burnt orange with an off-white head. The foam wasn’t as tightly packed as I would have liked. Aroma is floral, with grapefruit and bright citrus. Flavor is sharp but balanced...nice touch of honey to add that needed sweetness. Better than expected!!!

bottle. pours a deep copper/red color with a solid white fluffy head. some hop and piney aromas... wish it had a bit more on the nose. I almost feel this could be a IIPA, but it needs more aroma. Huge hop presence on the palate and through the finish.... nice and soft over the tongue with a good amount of carbonation. the deep caramel and malts come through as well as the beer warms. a very nice American style IPA from Canada...

341 mL bottle. Copper brown with citrus, pine, caramel, and toast in the nose. The flavour is aggressive, but well balanced, with grapefruit and pine balanced by caramel malt. The finish is bitter and lingering. Decent body and appropriate carbonation. A solid IPA.
