Hamilton bar The Ship opens in-house nanobrewery
The Ship in Hamilton, ON has opened an in-house nanobrewery which will be churning out seasonal beers for the pub, beginning with The Ships Rations, a 6.5% American-English hybird IPA.
The 70 IBU, unfiltered IPA utilizes Simcoe and Citra hops in conjunction with additions of ginger, molasmses and Chinese sugar crystals.
The Ship writes, “The ginger helps to create a powerful aroma of cardamom on the nose (putting the “I” in IPA) and is perhaps more felt than tasted -as it creates a synergistic effect with the hops- increasing the perception of bitterness and leaving a pleasant, almost hot, bitter burn on the palette. The molasses add color and complexity, and the Chinese sugar crystals help to lighten the body and create a rather dry beer.”
The Ships Rations is available now only at the pub.
