UnderTow, Platform 18, and 36 Below Are Phoenix Cocktail Bars With a Big Touch of Theater | Bon Appétit

"Designed to evoke a 19th-century clipper ship and the voyages of a fictional captain, this ship-themed cocktail theater pairs creaking-wood ambiance and porthole vistas with a story-driven menu that changes regularly. The cocktail program leans into tiki and theatrical presentations: options range from flaming communal bowls like the Scorpion Bowl (rum, cognac, orgeat, orange, lemon, and nutmeg, served in a bowl with flames along the rim) to more delicate clarifed-milk-punch styles such as Clear Skies & Tropical Winds (a nuanced clarified milk punch featuring guava, red mango tea, citrus, and grassy rhum agricole notes). Bartenders act as directors of the experience, using tableside theatrics and long, narrative menus to make drinks part of an unfolding plot." - ByLanee Lee
