Postmortem Brew Review
Deep copper/amber color.
Citrus hops smells and some malt undertones.
Frothy off white head with very nice glass lace.
Malt and hops balanced taste with great hops flavor finish.
Medium carbonation.
Medium body. Clean finish.

Grim Reaper's Eulogy 
Another Ipswich ale from Mercury Brewing.  Great tasting IPA that didn't go over the top. Excellent taste and easy to drink by the session.  I am glad they now ship to our area.

Check out the three masted schooner in scrimshaw effect on Mercury's Ipswich labels. Shiver me timbers and sink one of these soon, ya' landlubbers! Very cool logo.  Slightly different from its little brother the "Original Ale". Looking forward to other selections from them soon.
