Bend Brewing Co Black Diamond Dark Lager

“The nose is a pleasant balance of toffee, dark chocolate, coffee, and toasted malt with hints of floral and perfume-like hops. The borderline-acrid roast notes overpower the flavor profile and wash out much of the subtle nuance. Clean and crisp, but the bitter elements are a bit over the top.”
