Blind Salamander Pale Ale is the first of a series of Rahr beers called Rare Breed. These beers are dedicated to improving the lot of endangered Texas species. Rahr is making donations from these proceeds to the Texas Parks & Wildlife Foundation to help with the recovery of these species. The Texas Blind Salamander is a rare cave dwelling troglobite amphibian native to San Marcos, specifically the San Marcos Pool in the Edwards Aquifer. It has bright red external gills for absorbing oxygen from the water. Its mature length is 5 cm and its diet varies by what flows into its cave, including shrimp, snails and amphipods. Blind Salamander Pale Ale is a blend of the finest pale malts and East Kent Goldings hops. The fine balance of these toasted caramel malts and earthy hops makes Blind Salamander an easy drinking and satisfying ale.

    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

    Aroma of canned sweet peas and earthy mushrooms, which is hard to ignore. appearance was unusual it was very dark, a burnt amber body with almost no carbonation or head. Flavor was a little better it had slightly bitter hops, and plenty of toasty malts, with an o.k. finish. Overall its drinkable but its an odd beer. Its nice that part of the procedes go to help the blind salmander, so i gave it an extra point in the overall category.
