This episode of the Port City Plate Podcast uncovers one of the most unique places, not only in Mobile, but on the Gulf Coast, Iron Hand Brewing Co! Meet Ben Ross, the head brewer and owner of Iron Hand located in the DeTonti Square neighborhood of Downtown Mobile.
Ben discusses his passion for brewing that began for him as a hobby, but has now turned in to Mobile's only brew-pub. We discuss their unique menu of beers and English-style porters and ales. Iron Hand Brewing is the only brewery in Mobile that serves food! We discuss their pizza, and British-style fare that is unlike anything in Mobile.
We also discuss the unique history behind Iron Hand. Henri DeTonti was one of Mobile's founding fathers with an interesting connection to one of our previous guests, The Pelican Girls. Grab a pint glass for this episode, it's full of history, food, community, and beer!
