About This Beer

Did you know it’s against the law to give beer to a moose in some parts of Alaska?

Poor moose. They live near one of Thrillist’s Best Breweries in the Country, and they can’t even experience this Galaxy, Strata, Motueka, and Melba Hopped juicebomb!

Tasting Notes

It tastes like fresh mango juice with a spritz of sweet passionfruit. Notes of lemon kush and evergreen pine linger on the finish, balancing the fruity flavors.

Delicious IPA with an even better aftertaste! This array of hops works so well together and I wish I had more of this beer.

Gorgeous colored DIPA. So much stonefruit on the nose from the dry hopping. The aroma just pours out when popped open. Great balanced hop profile with a slightly dank, piney finish.

Daily corona battle. Fun fam Christmas stuff edition. This is earthy, funky, dry and hop layered. Lemon and mango abound. Anchorage always pleases.

A bit confused on the wide range of untapped reviews. I found this to be ultra smooth - crushable at 8.4 - and delicious. Mango / Melon forward with a unique hoppy bite to keep the cycle going.

it’s better I don’t live near Anchorage. I’d probably live at the brewery.

YES my day is much better this way with another winner from Anchorage Brewing. These Galaxy hops explode it’s signature flavor hop profile of citrus, passion fruit, and definitely peach. Fruity juice bomb. Creamy, fluffy, soft body. Too smooth, too good.

not the best I’ve had from anchorage. Has a spicy bitterness, with a flavor of menthol and grapefruit with a slightly piney finish

Good as always from Anchorage Brewing. Not something I’d rave about to friends but I’d buy it again.
