Congratulations On Yet, More Award Winning Beers
Celebrate With Alaskan
Holiday events usually include your favorite brews, but Alaskan Brewing gives us even more reasons to make sure their Ale and Porter are on the shopping list for gift or celebration. Did you know their Smoked Porter just won a prestigious bronze medal in the Smoked Beer category at the European Beer Star Awards? Their products, brewed in Juneau, Alaska are continuing to win national and international awards for excellence. Did you also know that Winter Ale utilizes the Sitka spruce tips (and of course our pure water) as a unqiue Alaskan ingredient? Alaskan Brewing continues to maximize Alaska's bounty of marine and land by making some of the world's greatest beers right here in Alaska. Read more about these beers and their chief beer-maker.
