VICTORIA, BC – Spinnakers Gastro Brewpub will be previewing their newest beer, Spinnakers Northwest Ale, later this week:
Inspired by the assertively hopped beers of the Cascadia region, this ale is brewed with pacific northwest hops balanced out with a strong malt body. Sure to please the hopheads out there.
The 6.2% abv ale will be available at the brewpub on Wednesday February 23rd in a cask-conditioned version dry-hopped with Magnum & Citra hops. It will return this summer on draught and in bottles.

- Greg C. is drinking a ∞ Peppercorn Rye Saison by The Exchange Brewery at King & DufferinBottled in June 2017. Lots of layers & complexity - bit of funk, some tart fruit notes, rye astringency & pepper in the dry finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Dragon’s Milk by New Holland BrewingSplit at tasting. 4.5 years old. One of the most balanced and drinkable bourbon barrel aged stouts around. Always a treat.

- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Westvleteren 12 (2012) by Brouwerij De Sint-Sixtusabdij van WestvleterenSplit at tasting. #realtalk - I’ve never thought this beer is as good as it’s reputation. But I know I’m in the minority. And that’s OK.
- Greg C. is drinking a Black Ops (2008) by Brooklyn BrewerySplit at tasting. 11 years old and held up beautifully. Barely a hint of oxidization, great depth of flavour, rich mocha & oak. Fantastic!
