About
Established since 2002, Blindmans Brewery can be found at Talbot Farm in Somerset amongst the cows. The brewery is a five barrel plant in a converted Milking Parlour. The brewery is fairly unique in having its own exclusive water spring which is carefully quality controlled, guaranteeing consistency. All ingredients are procured locally wherever possible, with malt supplied by Warminster Maltings, traditionally germinated on open floors in a process spanning centuries.

Cask handpull The Edgar Wallace, London. Chestnut red colour, lasting thin beige head. A slightly syrupy strong bitter. Good stuff though. Ar really good ESB. Fruity malts onto some green peppery hops. It’s a very good English ESB.

Cask Conditioned at Market Porter, London
Hazy red-amber color. It has a mild but nice malt and caramel aroma, light hops, a bit perfumy, floreal. But the flavor is much simpler, just waterish caramel; correct bitterness. Ordinary.

6.8/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
Cask-conditioned at the Portcullis, Bristol 11/12/08. Exclusive to the Dawkins Taverns of Bristol. Reddish-amber in colour with a slight, off-white head. Malty, orange and redcurrant aroma, with some caramel and earthy hops. Flavour began slightly sweet, before some leafy hops and then a finish which proved very long with orange peel, cloves and a lingering nutmeg kick. Unusual and a huge improvement on mulled wine.

Cask at Wenlock Arms, London, 22 Nov 2008. Reddish brown colour with brief, beige head. Malty, nutty nose with dark fruit and caramel. Malty taste with notes of dark fruit, raisins, prunes, cherries and a slightly bittersweet finish. Medium body, rather sweet. Good standard bitter. Nice but hardly stunning.

Cask-conditioned at the brewery tap, the Lamb, Frome 6/12/08. Chestnut coloured with a moderate, off-white head. Big fruit cake aroma of fruit and nuts. Flavour was sweet with plenty of caramel, more fruit and some hops lingering in the background, before a short dry finish. Good.

Cask-conditioned at the brewery tap, the Lamb, Frome 6/12/08. Copper coloured with a lacy white head. Fruity malt aroma with some nuttiness. Sweetish caramel flavour, with some earthy hops and a hint of roasted malt in the bitter finish. Good.

Cask-conditioned at the brewery tap, the Lamb, Frome, 6/12/08. Reddish amber with no head. Sweet, sugared fruit and caramel aroma. Flavour was syrupy, with a hint of diacetyl, some more fruitiness and a short, bitter finish. Not my favourite Blindmans beer by a long way.
