Ipswich Ale and Essex County Brewing merge for a better brew

A new merger between Essex County Brewing Company and Ipswich Ale Company is shaking up business, but not the brews they’ve become known for.

The brands are calling the move a “Craft Brewing Alliance” that will combine operations at Ipswich Ale’s brewery and taproom at 2 Brewery Place in Ipswich over the next few months.

While the deal will leave Essex County Brewing without its own taproom, which it currently has at Mills 58 on Pulaski Street in Peabody, co-founder Paul Donhauser said it’s an exciting new venture for him and his team.

The Ipswich Ale Brewery block party,

Good in the Hood, is back!

On Sunday, June 25, from 12pm-6pm, come to 2 Brewery Place in Ipswich to enjoy beer from the tapmobiles, in addition to a wide variety of food, entertainment, and activities for all ages. Our goal is to bring the community together for a fun, safe time while supporting and celebrating local businesses. In January of 2016, the Ipswich Ale Brewery opened their onsite restaurant the Ipswich Ale Brewer’s Table, which features 15 tap lines and a diverse menu with a mix of tastes ranging from brewpub to New American cuisine. The restaurant is open daily for lunch and dinner.
