I guess a sub for the molasses could be some Steen’s cane syrup for the molasses it would be a bit stronger though.

Could, I suppose. Never had it, so I can't speak to it. I was just researching hot weather 'beers' and came across that in a book from the late 1700s.

Sugar of almost any kind, preferably flavored, water and yeast seem to be the key elements. ;)

Don't get me wrong... I love a harsh IPA in the middle of the hottest August day, but none of the recipes I looked at had hops in them. And I didn't start an IPA back in December when I should have.
