Who’s bitter? Well, we’re not but this beer is a bit. Traditional English ingredients make for a pleasant and easy-drinking pint. A medium to light body melds well with a moderately hopped beer that starts hop-bitter but finishes clean. Cheers!

This Hazy IPA hits you with a citrusy nose as you raise your glass, tropical and fresh fruit flavors with just a little lingering bitterness ensure the second sip is not far away! Forget your worries at the end of the day and enjoy a pint of Memory Haze.

When asked what the goal was for this beer, brewer Dave Parker said, “We wanted to make something light and sessionable, but different from a traditional lager.” With 5.4% alcohol by volume, you can easily have more than one as you’re waiting for an update on your racers or cheering them across the finish line. For this reason, we decided to make a pale lager: a light and bright-colored pale ale/lager cross. It’s got the crisp smoothness of a lager with an extra little bite thanks to the Mosaic and Galaxy hops which give the beer a slight but complex fruitiness.

Being perhaps the heaviest of beer styles, our barleywine offers a ton of maltiness and a hefty dose of hops to help balance it out. With a body on the heavier side, it’s loaded with flavors of sweet caramel, roastiness, and even some molasses type notes. No question that this barleywine will warm you up on those cold winter nights.

A staff favorite returns! This rich and complex Winter Warmer combines the deep tones of Crystal and Munich malts with a hint of chocolate. Amply hopped with Galena and Eureka for a clean, balanced finish.

This Scottish is mostly malty with a touch of smokiness and a hint of honey sweetness. It’s bright in color and has a low hop profile. Delicious!

Brewed with cold-pressed, locally sourced cucumbers from Glacier Valley Farms, Cool Hand Cuke is our second collaboration with Beach Tribe Soda Works.  Simultaneously intense and subtle, the cucumber adds an interesting and refreshing twist to an already refreshing style. It’s kind of like a vacation in your mouth!

The Deckhand is a ginger-infused ale and is the first collaboration with Beach Tribe Soda Works.  This festive recipe combines a relatively ordinary malt bill, some Lemondrop hops, and house ale yeast with the extra kick of fresh cold-pressed ginger juice to produce an extraordinary spicy effervescent and downright feisty GINGER BEER.  This savory concoction provides our maritime friends a calming coziness after the Alaskan dark and stormy season. Cheers!

Pribilof Pounder has been brewed to commemorate the sesquicentennial anniversary (150 years) of Alaska's first baseball team, on St. Paul Island, the largest of the Pribilofs. Crisp, clean and refreshing. Peanuts, CrackerJax, and a light lager. Take ME out to the ballgame!

No aliens were involved in the making of this beer! Well, at least not that we’ll admit to! Area 52 is a pleasant and very drinkable light IPA. It offers what you would expect in an IPA but just on a smaller scale. A light body gives way to delicious fruity hop notes making this a very nice pint.

Perfectly balanced for both casual drinkers and hop lovers alike. Rich, smooth malts paired with crisp citrus hop flavors make this beer ideal for any location, occasion, or celebration.

Living to an age of sometimes over 120 years old, the YellowEye rockfish is prized on Alaskan recreational charters for its size and clean meat.  As a beer, the YellowEye is clean and big with tropical hop notes from apricot to mango to passionfruit to peach.  Yum!

We started with our Prince William Porter, cold smoked grain over pecan and cherry wood, and added a dash of Victory malt for toastiness. The result: our award winning smoked Porter.

Wild Country Raspberry is a hazy wheat beer with coppery red tones and a white head. Its aroma is predominantly fruity red raspberry. Raspberry is the predominant flavor too, but the mild sweetness of the berries is balanced with the tartness of wheat malt. A subtle hop spiciness underlies these flavors and adds interest. Surprisingly complex for a fruit beer, Wild Country is easy drinking and refreshing.

Chugach Session is a Cream Ale; brewed cool like a lager, but with an ale yeast. Think of it as an American Kolsch; rich, balanced and easy drinking.

Prince William Porter is a roasty, medium bodied, highly drinkable American Brown Porter. In the glass it is rich brown in color with ruby red highlights and a light brown head. Its aroma exhibits a malty blend of caramel and chocolate with hints of smoke and spice. Its body features a restrained maltiness supported by a subtle hop bitterness that finishes clean and refreshing. Despite its dark color this beer is very drinkable and food friendly.

Polar Pale is honey-golden in color and capped with a persistent white head. Its aroma whispers softly of hops...in tones of apricot, citrus and spice. Dry and balanced in body, lots of late addition hops keep the bitterness down but the hop aroma and flavor high. It finishes clean and dry with the lingering interplay of mild malt body and citrusy dry hops.

Pipeline Stout is a full bodied, inky black American Stout. Its rich aroma showcases roasted and chocolate malts and is accentuated with a hint of citrusy, spicy hops. Its flavor features a luxurious maltiness with roast highlights that fades to a hop balanced, chocolate fullness.

Northern Lights Amber is a brilliant copper colored ale with a slightly off white head. Its aroma is redolent of citrusy hops with caramel and toasty notes appearing as the beer warms. Caramel features prominently in its flavor, while the body is round and moderately dry. The hops play a supporting role in the flavor while keeping the caramel richness in check and providing a clean finish.

Refreshing and approachable, brewed with wheat yeast and unfiltered, this classic Hefeweisen style yields a pale yellow color a cloudy hue. Its aroma and flavor are an intriguing blend of yeast notes, wheat tartness and citric hoppiness. Try it alone, or pair it perfectly with a slice of lemon or orange.

Our Hard Apple Ale is a faintly red-tinged yellow in color with a decidedly cloudy hue. It has a mellow apple aroma with a spicy complexity contributed by a blend of apples. In the flavor the apples take the lead; their sweetness balanced with a refreshing tartness. Apple sweetness lingers pleasantly in the finish.

Fairweather IPA is our signature brew: big, balanced and assertively hopped. Light golden amber in color it has a slight hop haze that disappears as the beer warms. Its aroma is predominantly piny hops with subtle malt underpinnings. It is surprisingly full bodied to balance the citrusy flavor, spicy finish and pleasantly lingering bitterness that result from its extravagant hop schedule.

Bear Tooth Ale is an American Brown ale. It is light brown in color with a tan head and slight dry hop haze. More assertively hopped than many browns, its aroma is clean and citrusy with subtle malty sweetness. Its flavor is predominantly hop forward. At the start citrusy hop flavors blend with a dry, malty fullness. Malt flavors dominate the middle while a pleasant hop tingle lingers in the finish.
