I'd have to say this beer threw me for a loop. It resembled a light Belgian, but instead of a floral flavor, the Old Salt provided a peppery, salty spiciness that reminded of anise cookies. The beer finishes dry. Apparently Harpoon only brews it for Legal Seafood restaurants which is why there isn't a pic of the bottle. Honestly the funkiness of the beer basically makes it a situation where you're either a fan of the Old Salt or you aren't. The 5.1 % ABV is expected from a Harpoon descendant. The Old Salt Ale gets a 3.0

weird. I was at a Legal's on Friday, and didn't see it on the beer list.. suspicious i say..
I believe that I read somewhere that this beer is only sold at the Legal Seafoods in South Boston (which used to be Jimmy's Harborside). Or it might have been the Legal Test Kitchen, which is also in the same area. I could be wrong, which would not be unusual...
