S43 Brewery Diamond Hands
American Barleywine 11 º
Diamond Hands is a powerful American Barleywine that masterfully balances a rich, complex malt profile with a massive presence of Pacific Northwest hops. Deeply caramelized toffee and biscuit notes provide a sturdy foundation for the assertive hop character driven by Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, Cascade, and Columbus. This blend delivers layers of resinous pine, bright citrus zest, and floral undertones that pierce through the dense malt. At 11% ABV, the beer offers a significant, comforting alcohol warmth and a luscious, chewy texture. It concludes with a firm, lingering bitterness, ensuring this bold collaboration remains remarkably balanced for its substantial strength.
Appearance. Color ranges from deep amber to rich copper with ruby highlights. It displays good clarity and supports a moderately-low, off-white to light tan head with fair retention. Visible legs are apparent on the glass due to the high alcohol content.
Aroma. High intensity aroma featuring a dominant blend of rich malt and assertive American hops. The malt presents as deeply caramelized toffee, toasted bread, and a hint of dark honey. Hop notes of grapefruit, resinous pine, and citrus peel from Citra and Simcoe are prominent. Low to moderate fruity esters and a clean, noticeable alcohol presence round out the bouquet.
Taste. The initial impression is a wave of malty sweetness, showcasing caramelized toffee and bread crust. This is quickly met by an aggressive hop bitterness and flavors of citrus, resin, and floral spice from Centennial, Cascade, and Columbus. The balance remains malty but decidedly bitter. The finish is long and warming with a lingering resinous hop character and a smooth, well-integrated alcohol presence.
Mouthfeel. Full-bodied and chewy with a velvety, luscious texture. The high alcohol content provides a noticeable, smooth warmth without being harsh or solventy. Carbonation is moderate, contributing to the rich, mouth-filling sensation.
