The Alaskan Brewing Smoked Porter smells like a camp fire when you pop the bottle. Big fan.

gm of the bar i was at suggested it to me. i only had 1
That's the trouble I'm running into with it.. a lot of bars are like, "we won't carry it because people only order 2-3 and they're lit" (ergo; no a lot of beer sales)

I hate those bars.

It was my go to beer when I lived in Thailand. It's smooth, creamy, has a good flavor and a clean aftertaste. I wish Guiness would get off there butt and sell it all across the country.

It's one of their best beers. Probably their most award winning.

Can anyone recommend a good Cream Ale? I can't find many in the states and the few I have found have a horrible aftertaste.

The only Alaskan I've ever had was their winter ale. First time I had tasted spruce in beer and was an eye opening experience in my early maven days.

Yeah, they use Sitka Spruce tips and try to source as much locally and regionally as they can. Good people there and they make a good product. I do business with them.

I live in Kauai and stumbled across Kilkenny at the Kauai Beach Resort Inn. Bartender says they only have 3 kegs left and will not be getting any more in.

If you like blue moon give this a try. I like it more bc it doesn't have the waxy aftertaste.
