  Let $Z$ be a nondegenerate hypersurface in $d$-dimensional torus
$(\mathbb{C}^*)^d$ defined by a Laurent polynomial $f$ with a $d$-dimensional
Newton polytope $P$. The subset $F(P) \subset P$ consisting of all points in
$P$ having integral distance at least $1$ to all integral supporting
hyperplanes of $P$ is called the Fine interior of $P$. If $F(P) \neq \emptyset$
we construct a unique projective model $\widetilde{Z}$ of $Z$ having at worst
canonical singularities and obtain minimal models $\hat{Z}$ of $Z$ by crepant
morphisms $\hat{Z}\to \widetilde{Z}$. We show that the Kodaira dimension
$\kappa =\kappa(\widetilde{Z})$ equals $\min \{ d-1, \dim F(P) \}$ and the
general fibers in the Iitaka fibration of the canonical model $\widetilde{Z}$
are non\-degenerate $(d-1-\kappa)$-dimensional toric hypersurfaces of Kodaira
dimension $0$. Using $F(P)$, we obtain a simple combinatorial formula for the
intersection number $(K_{\widetilde{Z}})^{d-1}$.
