BevNET Review: Capt'n Eli's Blueberry Pop is the latest soda to be product by Shipyard Brewing. All other beer companies that are trying to make their own soda should take a look at this lineup as they've achieved near perfection. The Blueberry Pop is no exception. With cane sugar and real blueberry juice, this beverage has been harmoniously balanced to create a body that is sweet, smooth, and clean to the finish. The packaging is a bit busy, but it does successfully create a super premium image that fits well with Shipyard's micro-brew beers. Overall, this is a very well done product whose only limitation is the limited market for carbonated blueberry beverages. Still, it's a true gem that will please anyone seeking a super premium micro soda.Reviewed on: 6/6/2006

BevNET Review: Yet another small-batch soda offering from Shipyard, the ginger beer has a complex, spicy profile that numbed our tongue for a little while. While it doesn’t look all that potent, it’s strong ginger flavor will absolutely have you dreaming of shots of dark rum to create that potent dark and stormy cocktail. And Capt’n Eli’s Ginger Beer comes dressed in an attractive label showing a kid in a rowboat, accompanied by a friendly parrot, to boot. Definitely worth a try for ginger beer fans.Reviewed on: 6/3/2005

BevNET Review: While we don’t know how strong a market there is out there for a small-batch carbonated fruit punch, we will give credit to Capt’n Eli – or his employees at the Shipyard Brewery -- for mixing up a good one. This stuff has all the bright red color and candy sweetness of Hawaiian Punch, and the clean finish of real sugar, with just the right amount of fizz. It’s got a terrific label, too – could there be anything more enticing than a parrot surrounded by delicious fruits? Definitely worth a try for fans of bright red lips and stained shirts.Reviewed on: 6/3/2005

BevNET Review: Capt'n Eli's Root Beer is without a doubt one of the best root beers to come our way in a long time. This full bodied root beer has a rich and creamy flavor and a very clean mint finish. The use of real cane sugar, wintergreen oil, anise, and vanilla give this product a hand brewed feeling. Each of the different flavors can be identified while consuming this product. In addition, the artwork on the label gives the product an attractive retro-style appearance that looks great. Overall, a truly exceptional root beer.Reviewed on: 3/5/2004
