20th March 2023. Monthly Beer Share, Chez Sophie in Shrewsbury; five guys who love beer and talk bollox while drinking. Cheers Simon for this 'well out of date' 440ml can of beer. Black bodied, tanned wispy head. Peat Bog Whisky aroma and taste, interesting but too 'peaty' for my palate really.

440ml can @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, March 23. Dark brown pour, off white head. Huge peated Islay nose, taste delivers the expected big nutty peaty Islay TCP peatbog flavours, fairly intense. Good to try a brewery that no longer exists but was a struggle for me, as most Islay BA beers are. Rated according to style.

Can, smallish head, opaque extremely deep brown colour, aroma of peat, burned wood and a bit of chocolate in the back, flavour of burned wood and paper, bittersweet chocolate, a bit of peat, quite boozy. Nice but a bit heavy.

Black with thin head. Aroma and flavour are initially quite grassy. Dark malts, with a touch of liquorice. Loads of peaty, smokey, leather, ash notes. Woody too.

On cask at the Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - mat black and opaque. Nose - big smoky and iodine. Dark chocolate. Taste - dark chocolate, tar and smoky. Palate - rich and medium to full bodied. Creamy middle and smoky, roasty, dry finish. Overall - lovely stuff. Probably better because it's cask.

Keg at the Hanging Bat. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aromas of liquorice, iodine, coffee, whisky, oak, leather. Lovely nose. Taste is musty though. Cardboard oxidation. Behind that some nice notes, but overwhelmingly oxidised for me. Dry finish.

440ml can. Pours jet black with a medium head. Aroma is liquorice, blackcurrant and a little smoke. Taste has liquorice and smoked ham to start with a smoky TCP finish. Savoury, umami aftertaste.
