Considering the success of its shipboard breweries, Carnival Cruise Line has partnered with Lakeland, Fla.-based Brew Hub to become the first cruise line to can and keg its own private label beers crafted by its in-house brewery team aboard Carnival Horizon and Carnival Vista, as per an official release.The association - the first of its kind between a craft beer manufacturer and a major cruise line – was announced at an event aboard Carnival Magic at PortMiami, recently.Edward Allen, Carnival's vice president of beverage operations, was quoted as saying in the release, «With the success of our breweries on Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon the obvious next step was to let all of our guests fleetwide enjoy our refreshing craft beers and that's where our partnership with Brew Hub began.» «To be the first cruise line to ever scale up its beverage operations by canning and kegging their own beer is unprecedented. My hope is that our guests will take a four-pack home with them to share with family and friends as a refreshing and memorable reminder of their cruise.»The craft beers, which are based on recipes developed in-house by Carnival's brewery team, are now available in 16-ounce cans and on tap across its 26 ships and at all private destinations, as per the release. The three beers are:· ThirstyFrog Caribbean Wheat - an unfiltered wheat beer with flavors of orange and spices.· ParchedPig West Coast IPA – the embodiment of a traditional West Coast India Pale Ale, this hoppy, intense beer is loaded with bitterness with a bright flavor profile and distinctive aroma of citrus and pine.· ParchedPig Toasted Amber Ale – highlighted by its rich amber color and notes of toasted caramel and biscuit, this beer is well balanced, smooth and highly drinkable.It was announced that now passengers on all 26 Carnival ships will be able to enjoy these fresh, high-quality craft beers on every voyage and take some home after their trip. «Carnival's team of brewers have created three amazing craft beers, and we could not be more excited to be working together,» said Tim Schoen, CEO and Founder of Brew Hub.Carnival claims to have served nearly 300,000 pints of its private label craft beers to its guests, since introducing the first North American brewery at sea in 2016.Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek at the beers https://www.blouinartinfo.com/ Founder: Louise Blouin Read more
