Prior to my visit to Baltimore this summer, all that I knew about the City was learnt from The Wire, which many people regard as the greatest drama series in US television history. One of the significant story arcs from The Wire was the attempts to regenerate the decaying industrial waterfront of the Patapsco River.
Diamondback Brewing are located at Locust Point, at the heart of a very smart development which combines re-purposed warehouse buildings surrounded with lots of new-build apartments and houses, constructed with similar materials.
It looked to me like they are very well positioned indeed to leverage the large catchment area of wealthy City dwellers, and the taproom was quite busy when I arrived early on Wednesday evening.
The beer choice was reasonable, and I enjoyed a couple of very decent IPAs sitting outside on the patio, in the shadow of the huge old chimney stack, which is the landmark for the Brewery.
