Diamondback Brewing Company is located in Baltimore, Maryland. Diamondback is a brewery that provides a "hand-crafted and progressive approach to beer production" (Diamondback, 2017). Today, we are providing our thoughts on DQ'd, which is an American Culinary IPA brewed with locally sourced organic berries, milk sugar, and vanilla beans. Yum!
Appearance:
DQ'd poured a hazy yellowish purple color with a short frothy white head.
Nose:
The culinary milkshake IPA expresses ripe raspberry, blueberry, and creamy vanilla notes.
Palate:
DQ'd is an extremely flavorful milkshake IPA. Blueberries, raspberries, and creamy vanilla dominate the flavor profile of this delicious culinary IPA. The mouthfeel is rich, smooth, and creamy. DQ'd is an exemplary example of how a milkshake IPA should taste. In our opinion, the sweetness from the lactose balances the tartness of the berries very well.
Final Thoughts:
Overall, we believe that DQ'd is the most flavorful and balanced IPA that is available from Diamondback Brewing Company. The milkshake IPA is really well-balanced, and the berries, lactose, and vanilla beans complement each other throughout the sensory experience. Great job, Diamondback!
Diamondback Brewing Company was founded in 2013, and their first batch of production beer was available in late 2014. Diamondback Brewing Company does not can as much as the larger hyper-local breweries, but they are ramping up production and releasing craft beer cans more frequently. Their taproom is open Wednesday through Sunday and is tucked away in the old Phillips Seafood and Coco Cola facility.
We recommend visiting this craft brewery for their unique and hand-crafted ales.
Our Recommendations:
Diamondback Brewing Company:
Greener Machine (DIPA), Hop Broth (DIPA), DQ'd (Culinary IPA), Omar (American Pale Ale), and In Brouge (Hibiscus Table Beer).
Thanks so much for stopping by!
