49th State Brewing Company
Posted on June 25, 2017 by Ching under Food and Drink.
No trip anywhere is complete without visiting a local brewery.
This one has a neat restaurant with lots of good food choices.
Grownups only on this dining excursion, for obvious reasons.
The flights were a good deal. They offered several options that you could mix and match or even completely create your own.
I really wanted a set of these cute little pilsners. Alas, they weren’t for sale.
We weren’t that hungry so we just ordered a bunch of appetizers to share.
The chips were just okay. Nothing to write home about.
This was the crab dip, which I enjoyed, even though I think it was fake crab.
These bacon bites were my favorite out of everything we tried.
And, of course, we had to try their chicharrones, which were just okay too. We still like the ones they serve at The Hill the best.
Here’s a pic of Brian trying one of the bacon bites.
It was cloudy and cold the entire time we were in Anchorage but imagine this view had Mother Nature decided to cooperate.
This is the view from 49th State Brewing Company’s deck.
I imagine this would be a neat place to hangout in throughout the summer.
Here’s a panoramic so you get the full effect.
And a group photo of us out on the deck.
After taking a short break for photos on the deck, it was time for dessert. This is the tiramisu that Clayton and Sheryll picked out.
This is a slice of chocolate pie, which was Brian’s pick.
I got creme brûlée.
All four of us shared the appetizers and desserts though, so everyone got to try a little bit of everything. It was a great experience over all with good food, good drinks, and good friends.
Our server Matt was super friendly and, because it’s a small world, we found out that he has family in Wichita. He’s actually loosely related to Cynthia, the owner of Lumpiapalooza and Parsnipity Cafe.
The only thing I would have changed about the entire experience, had I had the foresight to plan the activity, would have been to schedule a brewery tour. I think that would have been really cool. Perhaps we will do so on our next visit because I doubt this will be our last trip to Alaska.
