Thanks to a friend at the brewery for letting me try the Blind Salamander. It had the East Kent Goldings hoppy aroma and the ECM is on the dark for the style. A significant amount of Special B malt yields a significant caramely flavor, and it was smooth on my palate. Overall this is an above average beer for this style and you should defiantly try it considering its "rare breed" status.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 12, 2009 Bottle: Dark caramel color with a thin beige head. Nose is sweet and malty, very little citrus hops. Tastes more malty than anything with a very light bitterness. Peat, smoke, and florals. Wtf? Rather earthy stuff going on here...

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 3, 2009 12 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with blutt59. Pours a hazy amber with a moderate-large off-white head that lasted until mid-glass and left partial lace. Aroma of malt along with stale air. The flavor is malt with a bit of treacle and cardboard followed by some mild-moderate hops bitterness. Glad I tried it, but probably not something I would drink with any regularity.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 30, 2009 Bottle ( 12oz ). Shared by garthicus with me and blankboy. Coppery pour with an average beige head. Slightly lactic grassy aroma, orange juice and mild roastiness - a bit funky (goldings!!). Taste is oily-bitter, grainy, with citrus and a little dry herbal bitterness - light, mildly astringent, nicely carbonated ... simple, unmemorable: clean though.
