Ipswich Dark Ale

Pours dark, dark brown with a small, short-lived head that left a ring and very little lacing. Roasted chocolate malts dominate the aroma with a hint of hops and molasses. Taste is sweet malts as well but less chocolate than the aroma indicated. The hops also make their presence felt in the finish with a slight dry bitterness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with a lot of carbonation that tingles the tongue nicely. This is a very good brown ale and highly recommended.

Pours a dark brown. Tasted almost like a stout, just lighter bodied and sweeter. . . molasses, roasted malts, mild finish. Well balanced, and very tasty to drink.

Not bad as this is a damn fine tasty brown ales with that nice malty kick, some bitter hops and that recognizable yeast which gives their beers a backbone. It could use a fuller body and stronger aroma but its a very drinkable beer. I can’t believe I got this for a dollar at Sabatinis Pizza in the dollar beer bin.

Bottle: Dark amber w/ a small off-white head. Spicy hop aroma. Citrus hop flavor...not very balanced. Decent though.

Thanks Robert for sharing!!! I enjoyed this beer. Nice and dark in color, ok head. Flavor was nice and malty, decent hops. Not watery but not thick. Good brew! Thanks again Robert.
