    Awesome vibe & spot! Can't wait to come back! I had their kombucha and it was super tasty!

    This super cute Palmer brewery definitely lived up to the hype. We stopped by early on a Sunday morning. They were serving a yummy brunch but unfortunately we didn't have the time to partake. We needed a few tasters to be able to fill a few growlers. Blood Brothers and Brojito is what we chose. Bleeding Heart definitely has the most unique and largest selection of beer on-tap that I've seen in Alaska thus far. Employees were warm and helpful. Their indoor and outdoor space is a vibe worth experiencing. The only con is you have to use a port-a-potty in the parking lot to relieve yourself...I held it till our next stop. We can't wait to return.

    This tiny place packs a punch. It's too classy to be a dive. But it's also eclectic and intriguing and, all around, just awesome. I was telling a friend about it the other day and, I was so animated, he said I should treat it like a coffee shop. Just go and read, journal, hang out. I had not envisioned it that way, but it made perfect sense when he said it. Their motto, "Drink like you give a damn!" sort of sums them up in a phrase. I appreciate they are friendly. I appreciate they have "normal" beers and they also have exciting beers that push boundaries and flavor patterns. I appreciate they have a simple menu that is always changing (though I could eat their banh mi any day of the week). They always seems legitimately excited about the food they are serving and it is always really, REALLY good. They chef is welcoming and kind and he seems to really enjoy cooking. I appreciate the outdoor seating in the summer and the comfy benches and seats indoors. Notables - Bleeding Heart is closed on Monday's. It's possible to walk through a gate and get to Matanuska Brewing. Alaska Pickers share this space with Bleeding Heart and, when the hours line up, you can peruse the shop while you sip on a beer.

    Out of all of the breweries that I've had in Alaska this one comes in at #7. Absolutely, hands down, they have the best coffee porter in the state. They need a award for their Grounds for Divorce coffee porter, it's rich, complex with just the right amount of coffee flavor! I was also surprised by their Basic Bit** sour. One of my favorite parts about this brewery is their relaxed, comfy environment that is so inviting to bring your friends and just sit down and enjoy a cold one! They have outside sitting as well which is great. They offer food as well which was very good!

    The place doesn't look like a brewery from the outside. We weren't even sure how or where to enter. (Apparently the small door off the parking lot is sufficient, or you can walk around the left side.) Once we figured it out, we found the interior was... eclectic. There were some creative seating options, but not a lot available. Thankfully it was a lovely day when we went, so we sat outdoors. The line to order was long, and they were out of a few beers we wanted to try. Substitutions had to be made. A second flight later on allowed us to taste the root beer, purple nurple, and kombucha. The purple nurple was the best of that lineup. The staff was kind. The food was alright. We enjoyed the Cubano, but the accompanying mac and cheese was cold. We ordered some kind of caprese thing that was nice but unbalanced, with more toast pieces than tomato, basil, and cheese. The napkin provided on the plate was covered in balsamic. It was a novel experience, but not one we deemed worth repeating on our own steam.

    During our visit to Anchorage from LA we took a day trip to Palmer. Bleeding Heart Brewery was our first stop and it didn't disappoint. It is a cozy brewery with a great selection. You feel comfortable as soon as you walk in and the staff is helpful in getting you the best beer for your taste. We ordered the cheese charcuterie board with two flights of beer. We tried all but one of the beers in their selection and they were all great or not something we've tried before. The beer selection is smaller than most breweries with about 15 total but good nonetheless. The look of the brewery itself is unique and super kiche in a good way. The brewery is connected to a thrift shop where we ended up getting some music cassettes and a vintage postcard. It was a fun little stop in our day.

    Industrial setting brewery. Attached to what appears to be a pretty awesome antique store. Unfortunately they're closed! Beer was decent. Staff would be better if they were more friendly.

    Bleeding Heart has finally reopened in their new space! Not going to lie I miss the charm of the farm. This new space is gorgeous, and if I've never been to the farm I wouldn't know the difference. I just feel like the farm perfectly encapsulated the quirkiness of this brewery. None the less I am excited for their journey in this new location. They deserve all the success! The beer is still amazing, and some of the most creative brews in the state. The space is very nice, and they share the building with Alaska pickers so you can get some shopping done too while on site. Bigger space means bigger brewing capacity, and they have the tap list to prove it! I didn't try their food menu, but I am excited to go back to sample some bites and see where they go with the food side of things. Excited to have BHB beers back in my life so I can continue drinking like I give a damn!

    I want nothing more than support local breweries, but I was a bit underwhelmed with Bleeding Heart. TBH it was probably closer to a two-star experience. Located adjacent to Matanuska in Palmer, this cozy place offers some limited seating inside along with outdoor picnic tables and heaters. The beer list was different than most breweries these days, which could be good or bad depending on your preferences. No IPAs or lighter ales, but several non-beer options for the one who prefer some trying else. The Guillermo el Hippopotamo was tasty (stout with hiracha). They serve brunch until 7 on Sundays. I ordered the chicken and waffles, which were "meh" at best. Come for the beer I suppose, but be prepared for weed smoke drifting in and dirty silverware.

    Stopped in for a late lunch and was extremely happy to have a couple vegetarian options. Opted for the tofu Banh Mi sandwich and chose the Mac and cheese. Both were phenomenal. The beer was great as well!

    Best beers we had in Alaska. 49 state brewery doesn't even compare. Nice atmosphere with plenty of seating outside if the inside gets busy.

Ample parking, easy access, and the kind of brewery where you feel welcome whether you're a lifelong Alaskan or just passing through. Pro tip: Arrive with an appetite and an open mind. Get a sampler flight of the beers, ask the bartender what's new or seasonal, and don't hesitate to pair it with something from the kitchen--this one's worth the stop. All told: If craft beer is part of your travel plan (or if you simply want a great local spot for food & drink), Matanuska Brewing Company in Palmer should be high on your list. Cheers to that!

Mantanuska Brewery is the latest brewery I got to try for the first time and it was an enjoyable first time experience. Steve and I got one beer from this brewery on two separate occasions and I liked it both times. The Deep Powder Porter was the name of the beer we had. What I liked about this beer was that it was very smooth which made it an easy one to drink. There is a malty sweetness going on here with roasty, caramel and cocoa flavors. Untappd had the beet as a feature with this beer as "brilliant " and I can see that going on with this porter but I might call it "alive" as this porter wasn't a dull one at all to drink but instead it was a fun one.

    There isn't a massive saturation of craft breweries in Alaska like in states like Washington,…read moreOregon, California and Colorado but there are quite a bit more breweries in the state than you may think too. Arkose Brewing was a brewery Steve got to try when we were visiting Alaska last year. We shared the Mandarina Moose Grapefruit IPA which was pretty good. Perhaps not the best grapefruit IPA I have stumbled across but not bad. The cirtus notes and malty flavor made it enjoyable enough. If I ever do get to try beer from this brewery again I think I'd like to try a stout or a porter and get a take of this brewery's version of those beer styles.

When he showed me an academic journal for brewers, I was ready to totally geek out. This, of course, was after I had tried a sampler with 6 of their beers. COOLEST THING: Every Thursday they do a small batch release. When I was there it was a Coconut Cranberry Macaroon Porter. And it was DELICIOUS. You ever hear people say "this is a beer for the non-beer drinkers?" Well, this is the place to go for them. The red and the stout were smooth and sweet. The Snarly was hoppy IPA but without the heavy bitterness in the back end. Above the taps the customer will find the beers on tap broken down by style. When I was there, they had light/Belgian, malty/dark, IPAS, and Barleywines. The space is clean and crisp. Lots of art and color, too. There is merchandise on sale and beer in both bottles and growlers to go. HIGHLY recommend Arkose.
