The Alaskan Brewing Company is located in Juneau and was founded in 1986. You can find these craft beers now outside of Alaska in stores and bars along the west coast, and it remains a very popular brand here.
One thing you notice if you’ve been living here for a while and then you go outside for a visit, especially the further east you get, is that everything here historically speaking is relatively recent. Alaska has been inhabited for thousands of years by the native tribes, and is rich in pre-history, but wasn’t an organized territory until the early 1900’s. We only became an official state in 1959, so you don’t get the sense of colonial American history here, but the prehistoric resources are abundant.
