Archives: Padre Island Brewing Co., 9/16/06

Padre Island Brewing Company
South Padre Island, TX
Sat. 9/16/06
[open]

House Brews:
Raspberry Wheat
Tidal Wave Wheat
SPI Blonde Ale
Padre Island Pale Ale
Speckled Trout Stout

Got a sampler of all beers.

Raspberry Wheat: Thin and sweet. Very light body. No hops. Sour aftertaste. 7.4

Tidal Wave Wheat: A better body than the raspberry - easy to drink. 8.2

Blonde: Sour mash aroma. Insubstantial body. Faintly hopped. Their weakest beer, but warms up somewhat better. 7.8

Pale Ale: Aggressively hopped from aroma to finish, but it's more than just hops. Good balance. Well made. 8.6

Speckled Trout Stout: Caramel and coffee aroma - almost perfect mouthfeel with smokiness. Much more like a porter! 8.8
