One-third pint, tap at the brewpub. Coal black body, tiny fawn-coloured head leaving spotty lacing behind. Smoked malty nose, hints of brown sugar. Brown and black malty flavours carefully smoked. Developing, lingering finish of mid-sweet peat with a twist of chili. Full bodied. A tasty, well balanced brew (Leeds Holbeck 07.07.2015).

Cask. Shakespeare’s, Sheffield. Clear, dark ruby red. Blotchy, bubbly, tan head. Yep. Very peaty. Earthy, dried fruit and tobacco leaf. Has a light, woody smokiness. Taste is vinous sweet. Mild, woody bitterness. Palate is fairly light, given the ABV. Lots of lip stickage. Finishes fruity dry. Enjoyed this one.

Cask @ Refectory, Leeds. Black with a thin off-white creamy head. There’s lots of peat in its smoked aroma. There’s less in its taste, but it certainly lingers in its aftertaste. All this combines to hide its strength. 926314

Draft sample @ Berlin Braufest 2015. Brune foncée presque acajou, col blanc-cassé. Arôme offre un léger bouquet tourbé ponctué par des effluves de fruits noirs et un malté pâle, léger chocolaté. Palais met bien en avant le tourbé sans tomber dans le surfait. Retrouve un côté de banane confite sucre brun et une fine note amer des houblons très UK. Certaine épaisseur en bouche pour un usage d’avoine? Fini poussiéreux caramel et Otter ponctuée par un fruité noir. Le tourbé reste bien présent mais reste assez discret tout en donnant un agréable caractère cette bière.

Craft #100 fest at Clapham. Cask. Opaque dark brown beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry with good fine carbonation. Light cream in the malts. Big sweetish band aids and a good dose of peat. Bubblegum ester. Light dry crisp finish. Meh!
