History
Where the Ship Inn resides wasn’t always a restaurant. Back in the 1950’s and 1960’s the building (1860 Victorian building) was originally a bakery, a ice cream parlor, and a bowling alley. This bakery itself came first and fueled all of Milford, NJ. Allowing residents to get their needed breads and other baked goods. After the bakery next thing to take over the building was an ice cream parlor. This parlor came shortly after the bakery but did not see much success. A Speak-easy in the back of the building is what brought the residents in during the Prohibition Era. This back room was there during the passing of the bakery and the ice cream parlor and lasted all the way up to the ending of the Prohibition Era. Next, to take over the building was a two-lane bowling alley. Though the building’s width alone could barely fit the two lanes, it was still built. The bowling alley was there in the mid 1960’s. In 1985 the building was once again purchased. This time it was renovated and turned into what is now known as the Ship Inn. To this day all of the original tin ceiling, beams, handmade brick pillars, and the wood to the bowling alley are still being used and are still intact.

NJ’s First Brewpub/Brewing System
Renovations were done again to the building but this time it was the inside that got the face lift. One of the renovations at the Ship Inn was the bar. The bar was made from the old bowling alley wood. On the inside a new kitchen, more places to eat, and a brand new 7-barrel brewing system were put in. The brewing system was installed in 1994. It was officially used on January 3rd, 1995 and it also became the first brewpub in New Jersey to brew beer for consumption since the Prohibition Era. The system is known as the “Peter Austin System”. The system is based on the old English tradition of handmade brick, copper, and open top fermenters. Through this system the beer is properly fermented for a week and is then sold to the pubic for consumption. The ingredients are bought overseas from England and shipped to the restaurant directly. The ingredients that a manly used in the brewing process are yeast (Ringwood yeast), malt (Munton and Fison’s malt). Another ingredient used to give that international flavor is the hops. The beers themselves are kept between 46 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. This allows the beer to taste and feel like it was made in England. Some of the beers are put on a hand pump to give it a natural carbonation. The rest are carbonated to give the American/international flavor.

Food/Drink
The cuisine comes from original recipes that were brought over from England and parts of Europe. The ingredients are bought fresh from local stands and butcher shops. The food is then prepared and made from scratch in the kitchen. This gives the food a fresh and healthy look, feel, and taste. The point of the restaurant was to give it the English touch. Allowing people to come in and enjoy the look, taste, and feel of authentic English style restaurant/brewpub.

 * WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is an invalid reason for keeping an article. Besides, there is no way that this restaurant can be considered as notable as a major chain. This is simply a promotion of a local restaurant that does not meet notability requirements. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 14:51, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
