Special Bottling Commemorates 20th Anniversary Of Alaskan Amber - Beer Advocate
When Alaskan Brewing Co. opened in 1986 it was the only operating brewery in Alaska and only the 67th in the nation. “When the brewery started up we all wanted it to be a success," said Vickie McMillan. “We just never imagined how successful it would become." Alaskan Brewing Co. is in the Top 10 out of 1,378 craft breweries nationwide, and it is the most award-winning craft brewery in the history of the Great American Beer Festival.
I drank a few of these during my Alaska trip this summer and the Amber is excellent. One of the workers took time to call me on my cell phone after I left an after-hours message at the brewery asking where I could find good beer in Juneau. Soon enough I was at The Hanger having several cold ones with my parents. Congrats!!
