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.

This is a good solid beer but I find that it has a kind of sour, almost skunky, aftertaste - not real bad but a bit annoying. It also kind of ’sticks’ to your mouth.

I’ve had an Alaskan amber shirt for almost 2 years now and I finally just now got to actually drink it. Obviously amber in color, moderately malty in aroma in taste, quite refreshing after a hard day fishing in Idaho.

Copper red-amber with a creamy tan head. Smoky, roasted malt aromas. Soft, fruity flavors pervades the generous maltiness of this beer. Floral hops round out the caramel malts. A smooth and balanced beer.

Pours a deep amber with a really nice head. Aromas are nutty and sweet with some anise in the background. A good firm body with some nice mild noble hop flavor. Great session beer.

Poured a clear deep amber color with a small off-white head. Sweet caramel aroma. The flavor was sweet and malty with an earthy hop on the crisp finish. Semi-dry finish.

On tap: Mahogany liquid, with a lasting rich creamy head. Nose of berries, reminds me of a Anchor product. Caramel malts, berries and some earth tones. Lighter mouth feel, slightly oily. Very enjoyable.

Pours a wonderful deep amber color with a small white head. Aromas of sweet malt and a hint of hop. Flavor is of malt with a tiny hop bite in there as well. Nice finish. Not too bad. Thanks Brewblackhole for this one!

Overall a great _easy_ drinking brew on a hot day (when Ice cold). Nothing here to challange the Pallete or expand the tasting abilities of the drinker, but nothing offensive either. A great alternative to the Buds and Coors of the world.
