There isn't a massive saturation of craft breweries in Alaska like in states like Washington,…read moreOregon, California and Colorado but there are quite a bit more breweries in the state than you may think too. Arkose Brewing was a brewery Steve got to try when we were visiting Alaska last year. We shared the Mandarina Moose Grapefruit IPA which was pretty good. Perhaps not the best grapefruit IPA I have stumbled across but not bad. The cirtus notes and malty flavor made it enjoyable enough. If I ever do get to try beer from this brewery again I think I'd like to try a stout or a porter and get a take of this brewery's version of those beer styles.

#thankfulThursday…read more When the founder told me that the whole operation was ran by two people, I was floored. When he showed me an academic journal for brewers, I was ready to totally geek out. This, of course, was after I had tried a sampler with 6 of their beers. COOLEST THING: Every Thursday they do a small batch release. When I was there it was a Coconut Cranberry Macaroon Porter. And it was DELICIOUS. You ever hear people say "this is a beer for the non-beer drinkers?" Well, this is the place to go for them. The red and the stout were smooth and sweet. The Snarly was hoppy IPA but without the heavy bitterness in the back end. Above the taps the customer will find the beers on tap broken down by style. When I was there, they had light/Belgian, malty/dark, IPAS, and Barleywines. The space is clean and crisp. Lots of art and color, too. There is merchandise on sale and beer in both bottles and growlers to go. HIGHLY recommend Arkose.

Thank you!

Oh, and don't forget the beer brewed right in front of your eyes. Susitna Brewery is worth the trip !!

This place is Amazing, if I lived close by I could see visiting here often :) !…read moreThe service was fantastic and our server Sierra was super attentive and friendly. Wished we could have stayed a little longer to try other options BUT we will be back. Very clean restrooms and dining area. Lots of goodies to purchase and their prices (in my opinion) were very reasonable.

EDIT- upped to five stars because I tried the pizza. Moose's Tooth who????…read more Also - the gochujang wings were excellent. Not too spicy!! Best chicken wing I've ever had. Yes, I got wings at a wood fire pizza place - and boy, am I glad I did. We did the garlic Parmesan and the sweet heat wings. I don't know what magic they do to get the skin so crispy and bubbly, but I'm happy they figured it out! It's like popcorn, so light and airy. And even sauced, the crispy texture didn't end! We took half our wings home to Anchorage and even after the microwave a few hours later - still crispy. We also shared a Greek salad that was delicious, fully loaded, and so big we both ate off it and still had leftovers!!!

Driving around all day and it was starting to get late....and we were getting hungry! We asked a…read morelocal at one of the museums where he loved to eat and he recommended this place. We told him that we just wanted good food with a chill, laid-back vibe where we could just eat and hang without being pressured to leave quickly. We stopped by and it was busy. Parking is right in the front and lots of spaces available. There was indoor and outdoor tables and luckily we found a booth. The menu is simple and straight forward. You place your order first and then take a seat. My friend and I decided to share a pizza, we couldn't decide and we got half and half, Pear bacon bleu and Greek. I also ordered a ginger ale. So I don't know why my friend decided to share a pizza with me, maybe we were both tired, or she was sooo hungry that she couldn't make any other choice but it was surprising because pizza is not really her thing. When we were ordering, I didn't think anything of it, but as we were eating and basically almost done she said, "You know what, I would come back and have their pizza, that was the best pizza ever!!" No argument from me...both half of the pizzas were so good. It was the right combo. The pear bacon bleu was almost like a dessert pizza but still very savory with the bacon bits. We were both hungry and the pizza size was perfect and filled us both. I never did ask, but do they make their own ginger ale? It didn't taste like any other of the Ginger ales that I've had in other places. This was flavorful and very carbonated. The whole meal was perfect! Wood fired pizzas are something special since not a lot of places make pizzas this way but even better when done right. I highly recommend this place!

Total tourist trap rip-off. Ordered the fish and chips, and…read morefor the price, it felt like an absolute scam. It came out with the tiniest pieces of fish I have ever seen on a plate. To make it worse, the beer servings were full price for not even a 6oz pour. An absolute waste of money. The service was fast but completely robotic; I could tell the server knew the portions were a joke because they actively avoided asking if I was satisfied with the food when checking on the table. Skip this place and go somewhere that actually feeds you.

As we entered the restaurant we noticed it was very busy!…read more Went to the hostess stand since it's required to have them seat you. We were seated by Andrew and he let us know immediately that he was the only one doing food service and he would be right back. We totally understand where he was coming from since Andrew never stopped moving while waiting on ALL the tables. He came back shortly after seated and took our beverage order and when he came back we were ready to order an appetizer. Ordered their jalapeño poppers and I have to say they were really scrumptious, my only issue is they are pretty expensive saying that you get 4 poppers for the price of $19 I think that is steep! The atmosphere was pleasant and everyone seemed to be having a good time especially since it was Valentines Day. The beer prices were fair although I wished they offered Ciders I gave a 4 for the price on apps however I give a 5 for Andrew

My husband and I went here on a whim on a Friday evening…read more They were setting up live music from a guy playing guitar and it was so lovely. The place has a beautiful rustic wood bar that's comfortable to sit at and large enough to order bunch of food. The service was very friendly as well and patient with my indecisiveness. We orders the jalapeño poppers and the Alaskan meat lovers pizza. The poppers come with 4, they are sooooooo yummy but sooooo hot lol. The meat lovers pizza was stuffed to the brim with meats. Ugh it was so yummy! But it wasn't greasy or soggy or anything: it was perfect! I highly recommend this place and will be returning!
