Can’t believe I didn’t rate any of their brews! Kind of kills me. From what I recall, really small and quaint home-town charm. Wait staff was incredibly attentive and the place was packed due to our cruise ship landing their. Food was really well prepared and piping hot on a cold day. Definitely worth stopping in if you are in port!

Nice alaska lodge type of vibe with about 5 good house brews on tap. The food was very good as well. Especially the fish and chips. As far as beers I recommend trying the spruce tip ale.

Quaint little saloon, only missing old-west style saloon doors. Was semi-full. Service was ok. Halibut fish and chips were better than excellent, they were incredible. Had Alaskan brews and some other as well as the house brands. Had a sampler of their house stuff for the ticks. Only decent place in town. Definitely worth the trip.

This place makes Skagway worth traveling to -- it is that good. Walk to the end of all of the touristy crap and take a seat at the bar. Order the fish & chips and start drinking. You will thank me. Two barrel aged barley wines when I was there. Best fish & chips I have ever had. London can’t compete.

If you make it to Skagway and don’t go here to have a few beers . . . well, you probably were just dreaming of Skagway. Don’t even think of asking the bartender for any samples - with a few thousand people getting off cruise ships here each week during the summer months, he gets tired of people who don’t even drink beer coming in, asking for a beer sample, and then leaving. So don’t blame him for being a little grumpy by late August. Make sure you buy a hat before you leave - it’s probably the second best thing they sell here, and will remind you of the best thing they sell here . . . that being the spruce tip pale ale.

Amazing place to go and hang out. The only downside of this great place is the price, but it is totally worth it. They have a great variety of beers, liquors, and and great food as well

If you’re marooned here on a cruise, make your way to the end of Broadway (the map below is not correct) and have the taster. For the middle of nowhere, the beer is good, if a bit pricey. I skipped the food, but many were eating.

Visited on a late Wednesday afternoon in September, this place was big and rough and fun. Loud music was blaring but a good selection. Service was quick and friendly, noting our return later. Four of their own brews were on tap as well as a couple guest taps (including Unibroue!), all fair and good. Tasty grilled cheese and fries for lunch. How is it that Alaska can get fresh Unibroue kegs over 3000km away from the source... and the province next door cannot? Anyway, worth visiting if in town.

(Visited 05/2008): Surprise find during an Alaskan cruise. This brewpub is located toward the far end of the main drag of downtown Skagway. The interior is a green/yellow color scheme with lots of wood. The bar is on the left side, with table seating on the right. The brewing equipment is not visible but is on another floor. Skagway Brewing has 6-7 beers on draught, including one or two seasonals. I did not see what bottles, if any, were available. 4 of the beers are available in a sampler as well. The beers are somewhat unique, including a Spruce Tip Pale and Wee Heavy included with the more typical Stout, Amber etc. All of the beers were above average, with a couple being very good. Service was good on a weekday late morning. The place was really getting busy (with the majority of the clientele being cruisers getting samplers so they could get a free hat - think South Park). We did not try any food on the visit. Overall this brewpub is a gem that is a must-stop in Skagway.

Atmosphere is pretty low key, the one room is kind of run down feeling to be honest, although stark might be a better word. The house beers are just okay, but quaffable. Couple of solid guest taps including Unibroue which almost offends me since we don’t have too many of those in Ontario! Stone IPA turned out to be my highlight of the day. Came back later and the friendly server remembered us from our first visit, even though she hadn’t been waiting on us the first time! Had a grilled cheese sandwich and fries which was pretty decent and reasonably priced. Not the most amazing stop in the world, but well worth a stop if you are in town.
