Alaskan Brewing Company

Alaskan Brewing recently sent out a press release about their 25 Anniversary Ale – Perseverance.  It lands on September 1st.  Even more exciting than an anniversary ale is that Alaskan will soon be distributing to Wisconsin.  Per the release:

“We are thrilled to represent Alaskan Brewing Co’s award-winning beers in our markets,” says Mike Frank, President of Middleton’s Frank Beer Distributing, one of Alaskan’s Wisconsin partners.

With the addition of Wisconsin, Alaskan’s second new market entry since 2008, Alaskan beer will be available in a total of 12 states. Alaskan will be entering Wisconsin with their Gold Rush-era inspired Alaskan Amber. Alaskan IPA and White Ale will be available in mid-September, a number of their year-round and seasonal beers will be available in kegs and caseware in the state later this fall.

Perseverance Ale is a Russian Imperial Stout brewed with Alaska birch syrup, fireweed honey and alder-smoked malt — a tribute to all that makes Alaskan beers truly Alaskan.  Available in 22 oz bombers.
