Description
Alaska has a rich history of brewing. From the explorers of the 1700s through the Gold Rush, many a thirsty Alaskan has been able to enjoy locally made beers.

In 1986, 28-year-olds Marcy and Geoff Larson reignited that tradition when they opened the Alaskan Brewing Company, the 67th independent brewery in the country and the first brewery in Juneau since Prohibition. Alaskan beers reflect many of the same characteristics of beers that were brewed here during the gold rush era. From the historically based Alaskan Amber recipe to alder-smoked malts and Sitka spruce tips, Alaskan beers reflect Juneau’s local brewing history and innovation.

GABF 2002: I've waited a long time to try this beer. Very dark black but showing alot of red at the edges. Rich chocolatey and malty aroma. Plenty of campfire smoke in the nose. Very well balanced dark malt flavors with medium smokiness. Smooth. Outstanding.

GABF 2002: Bright amber color. Strong caramel aroma, with clean caramel flavors up front. Light bitter finish. Well balanced. One of the best ambers I've tried.

Med brown, has a vague cocoa character. Somewhat thin body has some fudgey notes, and the finish is pretty sweet. A little too simple, thin and sweet.
