Friday Night Tramp Stamp

Unlike most, this Tramp Stamp was done in good taste.  You'll not find this beer hanging out at Manny's in Puerto Penasco on spring break. 

This IPA was brewed by the Mercury Brew Co out of Ipswich as part of its Clown Shoes series of brews.  The Belgian styled IPA pours up with a light copper color and slight opacity yielding healthy head.  The scent of this Stamp is decisively hoppy with just a hint of sweetness and the first taste is abruptly bitter but with a clean finish.  Subsequent tastes mellow a bit as the hop receptors are saturated.  At 7.0% ABV this is probably not a good choice for a session beer unless, well, you're trying to forget that girl you met on spring break.  Cheers!
