Eves of Destruction S.M.A.S.H. from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
4.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 2 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
Boring clear yellow body and okay foam, Smells vaguely of hops mixed with toilet water. Flavour is a lager-like concoction with soft hints of floral hops. Medium finish. Very easy drinking but also very forgettable.

35th Anniversary Enrico Shiraz Sour from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
6.1/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Medium clear red body with pretty much no foam, has a soft thin red wine and fruit aroma. Flavour is deep red fruit with vague malt hints, white wine. Sharp finish, good mouthfeel. Adequate but not as exciting as it should be given the hoopla of a barrel aged shiraz sour. Or something.

Field Berry Oat Sour from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
6.2/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 5 Flavor 8 Texture 6 Overall 7
Okay deep red body with no foam, soft fruit juice aroma of no distinction. Flavour is a deep malty musty affair that I don't think I've tasted before, somewhere between red wine and dark shredded wheat. Full on the mouth. Sharp and unique, funky without being overbearing, this stuff is a serious standout compared to Spinnaker's usual mediocrity.

Riesling Vitius from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
5.9/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Mellow clear gold body and just a titch of foam on top. Soft sweet white wine aroma. Flavour is sweet white wine notes, grape must, easy grains. Full mouthfeel. Not harsh nor sour but subtle and quite nice, though still lacking a critical depth.

Farmhouse Sour Saison from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
6.4/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Middling glinty gold body and little head. Huge brett yeast funk on the nose, major sourness, but nothing else layered in. Flavour is nice sour brett yeast, sharp carbonation, crisp finish. A great start, some impressive elements, Spinnaker's should explore this further.

Sorachi Rice Lager from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
4.4/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 2 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 4.5
Pale clear gold body and no head, smells of a musty bookshelf from a study that hasn't been entered into since 1966. Or maybe mouldy dog hair from a dry August summer. Actually maybe even doggy doo left to dry out in a park in the summer in downtown Phoenix. Flavour is bready rice cakes, dry carbs, followed by a sharp finish. Medium on the mouth. Awkward yet drinkable, no idea why someone would brew something like this.

Say My Name, Say My Name... from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
3.5/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 1 Flavor 3 Texture 6 Overall 4
Milky yellow body with modest head on top. Smells like rotting pineapples dumped into an ashtray. Flavour is soft hops followed by a foul bitterness. I like bitter hops but this is just over the top and unappetizing. Crisp mouthfeel though. There's not enough good here to recommend.

Original Pale Ale from Spinnakers Brewpub
7 years ago
3.4/10 — Appearance 2 Aroma 5 Flavor 3 Texture 2 Overall 3.5
Clear orange liquid, flat, no head. Soft cinnamon and apple pie filling aroma. Flavour is watery malts with a soft cinnamon spice peeking through. Incredibly watery, flat, no carbonation. This is either from a dead keg or just really, really bad.

Earl Grey ESB from Spinnakers Brewpub

6.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
On tap at Spinnakers, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with black tea - smells like an iced black tea in fact. Flavour is loaded with bergamot and other black tea-like notes, with the classic English malt backbone still apparent. This is quite nice.
