"Mystic Descendant is a beer descended from the cultural history of the Boston harbor area. A dry Irish stout meets an English porter and is then fermented in the fermentorium with our saison yeast with a touch of the ubiquitous ingredient from the area's past: molasses. The result is a uniqe beer; it has more dark fruit than a porter and less roast than a traditional stout, while having a different ester profile than a Belgian stout. We thus dubbed our recipe a Suffolk Dark Ale, as an homage to our immigrant ancestors."
I love this beer, and I find it's unique taste so pleasantly easy to drink. The molasses gives it such a nice sweetness that doesn't overpower the rest of the flavors at all, but rather works with everything to make it a complete drink that stays on the tongue. It's just delicious.
Come and try some Mystic Beer at a tasting they'll be tasting at our store in Sudbury on Friday January 27th from 4-630.
