Don't let the front door fool you. There is an incredible space awaiting you. Peppy music, two floors, and delicious beer. And some assorted snacks as well. Friendly service. Samples available. Trivia: According to the website, Bernard is the one who really runs the place. Who is Benard, and what's his other name? read more

There was a good food truck and the set up is really nice. This inside is modern and fun and the beer was pretty good. There was WAY too many dogs inside and out. Not everyone is a dog lover. read more

Absolutely amazing beer in Anchorage! The atmosphere is awesome. Huge roll up door that opens to the outdoor seating area in the summer months. read more

FINALLY, a brewery in Midtown! It's not my ultimate dream (that would be a brewery in Spenard, WHY has that not happened yet?), but it is a massive step in the right direction. (Matanuska Brewing doesn't count because they don't brew anything at their Midtown location, as far as I know) Equally as cool, for someone that fancies themselves "a climber" like I sometimes do, is that this is a climbing-themed brewery! In climbing (mostly in the sub discipline of rock climbing, and mostly in the sub discipline of rock climbing known as "cragging", which is the climbing of cliffs rather than mountains) the term "onsite" usually means climbing a route "clean" (with no falls) with no "beta" (beta is climbing slang for information about a route, allegedly because people used to get info on mountains by taking grainy video on beta tapes. For all you Millenials out there, beta was a competitor to VHS tapes. For all you GenZers out there, beta tapes were one of the first ways you could view video footage at your house.) In a brewery, it has all sorts of cool double-meanings, but I'll let you hear it from the founders on your first visit! The space is small and clean. It's going through a "soft opening" right now, but it already feels like a place where you bump elbows with people you know and make new friends out of strangers. This is a "nanobrewery", definitely the smallest in Anchorage. Their brewing setup is 31 gallons. If you don't know anything about brewing that might seem like a lot, but think about this way: that's 2 kegs per batch! For comparison, most homebrewers make 5 or 10 gallon batches. The owners were really friendly, despite my brewdate and I being maybe the only people in the space they didn't know. They also had a wonderful dog, Chai. Here are the beers they had on tap: Coffee IPA: I didn't try this one, next time! Brut Pale Ale: wonderfully dry with puncy hoppiness! Hops were Mosaic and...I forget the other one. Sitka Spruce Pale Ale: a spruce beer where you can actually taste the spruce, finally! Very nice pale with added complexity from the tree parts. Jalapeño Kölsch: nice spice to this one, but it tasted a little too much like pickled jalapeños to me. I'd love to see something like a habanero wheat beer though, some of my favorite beers of all time incorporate chiles. Love the sense of adventure with this beer. All-in-all, a great new brewery in the Anchorage brewery scene! I feel like the brewery bubble is bursting in some parts of the lower 48 (Portland), but it seems like it has SO MUCH more room to grow up here in Anchorage. So many people still have breweries that are a long drive from their house and/or place of work. It seems like most everything is either downtown or south of Midtown with little-to-none in the surrounding areas (Muldoon, Russian Jack, Turnagain, Spenard, South Addition, Fairview, etc). This one goes a long way into plugging a hole! Already excited for my return visit! read more

Great spot in midtown, they always have new beers on rotation and said you'd probably not get the same one twice when coming in! Check for a food truck out back to enjoy a bite with your beer on their nice outdoor seating area. Spacious upstairs area to! Looking forward to coming back to try more! read more

This super cute brewery is comparable to Cynosure Brewing but with a better parking lot. The inside is large enough, clean and has an industrial vibe. I love the adventurous art pieces hung throughout the space. Employees are welcoming and knowledgeable. Dogs are allowed inside. Love their Arctic Winds Pilsner. Onsite keeps an updated tap list on their Instagram. As well as their rotating food trucks. Did I mention On-site has the best glassware? Highly recommend. read more

Cute little brewery that looks the same as any other brewery in town. Wood tables, two levels of seating. They have a small selection of small batch beers. All the taps have rock climbing handles. I got the stout. It was OK. Not a coffee or chocolate stout. Strong yeast smell whe. You walk in, way stronger than I e smelt before in other breweries, just when my dad brews his beer at his house smells up the house for days. read more

Great beer. Good vibes when we get a beer here. Love to see that it is growing and always getting new beers on tap. read more

Three stars with a flag to come back again. The location is great, I love that we now have a brewery in mid-town. Lots of parking behind the building which is also a plus. Keep in mind they just officially opened in January. Before walking in I thought the name was pretty bland... but once I talked to the staff and understood it, it all makes sense! Onsite Brewing- they only brew and serve onsite. They have no intentions of offering the brews out of location. I personally did not like the feel of the brewery. The walls are a white concrete block with little to no decorations **keep in mind they are newly opened. They had a few picnic tables to sit out. Two bathroom stalls. There is an upstairs that they are ordering furniture for, so again, need to come back. Also, this isn't there fault, as it appears to be a new trend.. but there were more kids under the age of 10 than adults on the Saturday I stopped in. read more

Smart and cool tasting room and Biergarten Great beers. Well located. Nice staff! Felt more authentic than other Anchorage options. read more

What a hidden gem!!! I thought it was a mechanics when I walked passed... The shop front is a bit odd but the beer is sensational!!! Definitely worth a visit read more

While smaller than many of the competing breweries in Anchorage, Onsite offers a more limited but very tasty selection of beers. The tasting area is split across two levels, which can range anywhere from almost empty to packed depending on when you choose to visit. The staff is friendly and the vibe is very casual. Beers are on the pricey side relative to other breweries here. They don't fill growlers so glasses only. read more

Visited for the Grand Opening. Tried a session beer called The Project and their IPA (Junk Show) with Citra and Mosiac hops....I think. Both were underwhelming and not well executed. Will give this place another chance once they have a couple more weeks to refine the offerings. Love the vib and excited to see this adventure-inspired brewery take shape. read more

Nice location and great seating options, inside and out. Beers are on the small side for the price... I like my pint. Very friendly and quick service. read more

Over priced and very small pour. $7.00 + tax for tiny glass of their limited selection. No Stout.

One of the coolest taprooms to visit in Anchorage for great beer and welcoming, chill atmosphere. Def. give Chai the Brewery Dog some love while enjoying their unique, vibrant, and taste-packed pours like the Jalapeño Kolsch or Brut Session IPA For being brand new to the craft scene, Onsite already rivals local greats like Anchorage for quality beer. read more

We have come here before and the beer has been pretty good. Last time we came, we brought our 2 dogs. We went upstairs to drink our beers. There was another dog that came upstairs. All 3 dogs were fine. Someone else brought their dog upstairs, making 4 dogs. As soon as the 4th dog came upstairs, all 4 dogs started barking. A male worker came up to us and said we need to take our 2 dogs outside. He never said a word to the other people whose dogs were barking. Our 2 dogs were pitbulls and I feel that is why something was said to us. We will NEVER be back to this brewery. read more

Some of the best beer in Anchorage, in my opinion (especially delicious IPAs). Also, chill atmosphere inside and friendly servers.

Did a microbrewery crawl in Anchorage, this was stop #6 of 9z building and atmosphere is small and perfect. Beers are decent, seems to be mostly local people due to size of brewery. Be prepared to pet everyone's dogs. read more

Unassuming front door but very cool vibe inside! Cool mountain/climbing artwork and lofted seating area. The back door also rolls up for patio seating and they had a food truck parked outside. The owner and her husband were working the bar and were very sweet and welcoming. And best of all there is a very friendly bar pup! read more

wonderful small scale brewery with some delicious brews, fun vibe and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

small brewery with some of the tastiest beers in Anchorage maybe the state!
