Hamilton's first Nanobrewery?

They've had the brewpub license for a while but I guess something finally kicked them in the butt to make use of it! First beer sounds promising - a hoppy ginger beer doesn't sound too shabby if done right. Looking forward to trying it. I believe they enlisted local homebrewer Victor North for this beer, which is a name that comes up often on competition results. I haven't heard a set date on when it will be launched, but should be within the next couple weeks.

Props to Tate for all the improvements he's made over the past year.
