    During a quick cruise port stop in Juneau, we dropped into the taproom and opted for the Alaskan Juneau Juice. It is a wonderfully executed Hazy IPA that leans heavily into bright citrus and tropical fruit notes. By keeping the IBU low, the brewery avoids any harsh bitterness, allowing the vibrant hop flavors to take center stage. At a solid 6.8% ABV, it carries a satisfying weight and a clean finish without sacrificing drinkability. This is an exceptional, fridge-worthy staple for any craft enthusiast.

    This place was fun but not the original brewery like we thought. Yummy porters and king crab if you are there for yummy crab. Atmosphere was chill and the staff was very informative and kind.

    What is good here, Beer & BBQ with a side of King Crab After getting off the ship (Anthem) we had a duck fart, then shopped, and then we hunted down food. What do most Texans want BBQ and beer! Tracy's was packed and seemed overpriced, Red Dog packed no room in that inn for eaters, soo we go to what was suggested by our Royal Caribbean port shopping person Jeff -- Alaskan Brewing Company! They are tight when needing a seat but if your patient people tend to eat and go here. Staff super nice and offer great suggestions on beer & eats. My husband and I really wanted to have some King Crab we just got one pound of crab as we also wanted to tackle the Alaskan BBQ Sampler which is perfect to share with a side of Hop Salt Fries. We selected the whole sampler to try and I'm telling you "wow!", so good they do put a side of purple cabbage slaw on the plate which also was very good. My husband had water but me I grabbed me a flight of deliciousness I recommend the Alaskan Amber and the Ascender both very good. We had great weather and shared our meal with our fellow cruise mates that came with us to Alaska. There is a pub upfront, eatery is in back and a gift shop with tons of items to buy.

    This place is a great stop for people getting off a cruise in Juneau. It is just steps from the pier and they have a huge outdoor seating area (the inside was packed). The crab was fresh (of course) and delicious. Their other food (brisket, mac and cheese, elk, etc.) is also good. They have a nice selection of housemade beers which are great for washing everything down.

    We stopped at Alaskan Brewing Public House when we were docked in Juneau. There was no wait and it was self seating. We ordered 2 pounds of Alaskan King Crab, Mac and Cheese with Brisket, and a Brisket Sandwich. The king crab was delicious and the Mac and Cheese had a little kick to it due to the hatch chilis. The brisket sandwich had only a few pieces of brisket and was definitely on the smaller side. A 4% convenience fee was added to our bill. When we asked what that was for, our server didn't really know. Aside from that we felt it was a pretty good dining experience.

    These have got to be the greatest beers I have ever had. Their entire fleet of beers is nearly note perfect. Really spacious place.

    Directly off of the pier when you first arrive into port from a cruise and easy to get into. They have a bit more limited seating options, so you may need to stand until something opens up (depending on how busy it is). The aesthetic is a modern / classy bar feel. The service moved a bit slow, but it was very crowded, so not a big deal. We did a quick stop in after doing an excursion and got a drink on the way back to our shuttle bus to take us to our direct pier. Overall: B Decent brewing house for a quick drink.

    When in Juneau, most people would go to Tracy's King Crab Shack for some Alaskan King crabs, but since our friends went to Alaskan Brewing Public House already, we decided to go there to meet up with friends and have some king crabs there as well. Since it was a brewery, we started our meal with a beer flight and all were very refreshing and tasty. There were plenty of things on the menu, but we were hungry for king crabs so that was what we got. They were so plump and juicy, totally different from anywhere else in the States. We also got the seafood chowder and it was ok. Overall experience was just ok. The food and drinks were great, but service was pretty meh. We didn't know we could just sit ourselves and waited around the door. We had to ask the bar to find out about the seating. After we sat down, no one attended us for a long while, to a point we went to the bar again and asking if we needed to order there. A server eventually came over but wasn't all that friendly. She was plenty friendly to other tables and even helped them to crack the crab legs. We made a comment and we believe she heard us because she came to our table to crack the crab legs right after that. Service aside, we would say this spot was a good alternative if Tracy's got packed for the king crabs. Not restaurant related, but our friends left before we even got there. We could have gone to Tracy's, lol.

    Stopped in for some beer after a day of exploring Juneau. Luckily, this place was right next to our cruise ship port so we could pop in for some tasty brew and wings before boarding the ship again. Great service and very delicious IPA options. Tasty wings and a positive vibe here. Really stocked merch shop next door where we got some awesome ABPH t-shirts and hats. Bonus yay!

    Gluten free Hop Salt Halibut Bites
    Curry W.

    I have to eat gluten free so finding gluten free fried halibut was exciting. It didn't disappoint. Great taste and the dipping sauce was great too. Sat outside and people watched which was fun. Service was ok (only reason not 5 stars). I definitely recommend.

    Fish & Chips, Soft Pretzels with Beer Cheese Dip, and Smokehouse Seafood Chowder
    Mario R.

    Fish & Chips were quite tasty albeit quite pricey at $38. The chowder and cheese were served lukewarm, and the pretzels were cold. Had I only had the fish & chips it'd be 5 stars but the rest of the meal was inedible.

    Stopped and grabbed a quick flight while we rested after walking around town. We tried the Alaskan White, Kölsch, Amber and the Smoked Porter. I'm not a huge beer drinker and liked the Amber and Kölsch the best. The Porter tasted like BBQ to me, and while the gal said it was one of the beers that put them on the map, we were not fans. Fun atmosphere but a bit disappointed in the fact we sat at the bar and the two bartenders were more interested in talking to each other than being available to answer our questions.

    If you are visiting Juneau while your cruise ship is docked, don't follow the lemmings and hit up…read morethe Tracy's near the port. While the food and prices are the same, you'll have to wait in a huge line with all the other tourists. Instead, get your hiking boots on and start walking to the 2nd location. Yes, it's another 15 minutes from the original location, but you'll work up your appetite for all the wonderful food you'll have. Once you arrive, you'll see the welcome sign. Follow the directions and order at the first window, then order your adult beverages from the 2nd window and find your seats in one of the two large tents. We arrived at 11:30 AM, and there was only 1 other party in front of us. After ordering, our food arrived in less than 10 minutes. My wife & I each ordered a combo (her the Golden King Crab, me the Snow Crab), which came with a cup of crab bisque, 4 mini crab cakes, a roll and drawn butter. We each also got a fountain soda (refills can be had at the first counter). The food is worth the hype. If you've never eaten fresh crab before, take your time and use the crab tool to free up the juicy meat. Eventually, you'll get the hang of it. And unless you get on the fishing boat and catch the suckers yourself, you'll probably won't have fresher crab again. Afterwards, walk off the meal and check out the Whale Project nearby. Your friends will want to see more pictures than all the meals you're having on this vacation.

    Cruise stop in Juneau. From the ship we could already see about 30 people lined up at the first…read morelocation, do we headed for the second location. There are a couple of small buildings and a big tent. Order at the first building and wait for your name to be called. Three of us ordered the combo (crab leg, bisque, and 4 small crab cakes, some Holden crab claws, and one ordered crab cakes. The combo price varies but is about $100 - steep! Red crab is more expensive than Golden. The crab and bisque were delicious. The crab cakes did not seem very crabby. If I returned I would stick with the Golden. Not only is it less expensive, but I think I preferred it. Also, instead of ordering the combo or a leg, I would go with the claws, which had lots of meat and were just as delicious as the leg.
