Ulster Hotel, IPSWICH, QLD

It should be no surprise that football photos have pride of place in the bar of the Ulster. One of its most colourful licencees was Dan Dempsey, a member of the Kangaroos rugby league team in 1929 and 1933. During the beer rationing of World War II, Dempsey put on kegs to suit the hours worked by miners. The hotel is currently owned by his daughter Norma and her husband Denis Flannery who also represented Australia in rugby league in the 1950s.
