Pouring golden and clear with a crisp, sparkling head, Diamond is a refreshing premium lager.

Using first-class ingredients and cold-conditioned for 21 days, this lager is light and malty with a touch of sweetness which combines with a welcome hoppy bitterness. The result is a gold standard, full flavoured beer to be drunk as an early afternoon appetiser or late evening finisher.

Diamond is embedded in lager folklore having been officially crowned the best premium lager in the world twice at the International Brewing Awards in 2013 and 2017. Diamond lager is also vegan friendly.

No head on a slowly carbonating golden coloured body. Fruity & malt aroma. Medium to thin bodied, low carbonation & dull on the back. Light malt, cereal & grain tastes with a citrussy finish. Lacklustre

Pint on tap at The Railway, Buxton. Clear amber beer with creamy white head. High carbonation. Grainy, malty nose. Fine mouthfeel, like expensive mineral water. Nice lacing. Taste is lightly bitter, finish is malty leading to tinny bitterness. Nice and drinkable in the sunshine today.

On tap at Grove Inn, Ashton New Road - nowt wrong with this one, yellow body, lots of fizzy white head. Nose is grainy, but holds together with a balanced sweetness. Refreshing and that’s it.

Light amber; fruity-hoppy, fresh bread. Still comes over a little light compared with other Holt's
