Ginger beer was first brewed during the colonial spice trade, when ginger from southeast Asia and cane sugar from the Caribbean were fermented to produce a mildly alcoholic and wildly popular beer. Ginger beer was one of America’s favorite beverages until the 1920s when prohibition put a stop to the public production and sale of alcoholic ginger beer, leaving it largely forgotten. Over the last several years, Halyard has worked tirelessly to rediscover the lost art of brewing alcoholic ginger beer and reintroduce it to the American people.
