COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our flagship beer is based on a turn-of-the-century recipe that quenched the thirst of miners during the Klondike Gold Rush. Smooth and richly malty, this altbier goes well with any meal.

Bottle. Poured a copper red color with a foamy white head. Aroma consisted of malts, hops and caramel. Very smooth and balanced flavor, I was really impressed with this beer. Hints of spice with a overriding yeast and hops flavor that left the palate nicely. Would definately pick this up again.

troopie (1557) - Munchen an der Willamette, Oregon, USA - MAY 11, 2007
Bottle, pours pale gold, almost like a pilsener. Thin white head, also like a pils. Faint caramel aroma. Full malty body with some spiciness and much bitterness. An all over the tongue finish.

Doon (106) - Phoenix, Arizona, USA - APR 2, 2007
12 oz. bottle....On sales $5.xx at bevmo. We cna’t get this where I live, so I wanted to try it! My frist impression was that this was a very hoppy amber! And that’s great! typical amber color, but not as sweet as some of the others mentioned. I would definately try this again.

12 oz bottle from bevmo. pours a deep copper color with a small head that quickly dissapears. The flavor is mostly sweet malt. It feels very nice in the mouth. Overall its a good beer if your in the mood for something a bit sweet.

On tap at pour 24 in ny,ny. Pours a clear copper with a small frothy white head. The aroma is a faint fruit malt with a faint cararamel. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet malt with raisin and caramel. Easy to drink a good amber ale from alaskan brewery.

On tap at Dexters in Madison, pours a clear dark amber/brown with a decent off white head, the aroma was sweet with a good amount of caramel and dark fruit, the flavor had a nice sweet front end with dark fruit, a hint of chocolate and a finish of hops, not bad at all.
