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. 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.

Tasting - Perfect Pour - Dark amber, creamy off white head. Rich caramel nougat and peachy pine aromas warm to soft honey spruce notes. Sugared fruity and pine hop flavors balance on a bready caramel backbone from start to finish. Loads of hop flavor without any bite. Medium bodied with pillow soft carbonation. A very different, but tasty IPA...

12 oz bottle. Pours dark rust color with tight beige head. The aroma is sweet and citrusy, with honey, tangerine, brown sugar, pineapple, a little bit of pine. The flavor has a mellow maltiness and a resinous hop flavor, followed by a rather assertive piney bitterness. It finishes with some burnt caramel and wood, and some more hops. This one is very tasty.

amber pour. Aroma is Cascades (or close) with somewhat darker amber malts. Decent IPA, but a dime a dozen.

Bottle courtesy of Hog Town Harry. Thanks. First Dieu du Ciel beer. Pours a nice slightly cloudy amber. Swet malt & piney grapefruit hop aroma. Slight medicinal taste along with marmalade, grapefruit, caramel. Nicely made beer

murky and hazed red bright brown body. dirty flower petals. lasting thick bubbled head that is all white. just a touch of lemon in the nosetastes like my uncle jesse’s front porch smelled when i was a kid . dusty with the wind bringing the scent of the pines and the honeysuckle hanging from the fence line, but under it all dirt, oil, sweat, clay and old wood of everything because everything around there was old even back then the smell of the metal that was always around from the poles holding up the roof to cemtn . the berry patch that grew to the south by the pear tree and at the edge of the property the grape vines that grew fat & so dark that they seemed black all this with the constant sound of a motor somewhere. the wind, the creak of the trees and the constant distant voices just beyond understanding that came from all the other family houses just on the edge. damn. i ramble when i drink sometimes. decent beer. 3 6 6 4 12

11.5 oz bottle. Cloudy amber with a tan head. Odd nose - citrusy and earthy, peach and caramel. The peach and earth take over in the flavor - tasty but strange.

This dark amber ale poured with a thick fluffy beige head and a toffe aroma. There is a rich caramel malt flavor with a powerful hop finish that leaves pine on the palate. This is a very tasty brew.
