    Gold Rush liquor has been purchased by the parent company that also owns Brown Jug. As a result,…read moretheir bush order department no longer exists. Instead of continuing to monitor the old bush orders email address and notifying customers of this change, they allowed it to become an email black hole. After my second order attempt in months, I called them only to be told by a Brown Jug employee that "Gold Rush was supposed to notify their customers". Further, although it seemed like they were able to get into the email account after that, and I sent updated copies of my license and liquor permit, they apparently lack the capability to provide a pre-shipping subtotal... either that, or they just decided my request was unreasonable and they don't want to do business with me any more. I might never find out; they still haven't called me back, and I'd sooner order from someone else. Problem is, it looks like Liquor Stores USA North is attempting to buy up all the liquor stores in Anchorage, so you'll soon not have a choice but to put up with their bullshit.

    Gold Rush Liquor is a giant space of alcohol. Booze as far as the eye could see…read more Is it fancy? No, but it also isn't daunting. Clearly labeled sections make finding your spirit of choice a breeze and the low shelves makes finding people even easier. My friends split up upon entering but keeping track of each other was simple enough. And the selection! Wow. I saw alcohol here that I can't find anywhere. I immediately regretted not having more time in Anchorage for surely I'd pick up more. Everyone was so friendly here too! Employees were polite but not over bearing. The only downside is the price. We were on a hunt so we went here and then immediately to other stores. We were surprised to find identical product (same brand, type, size) $10 cheaper elsewhere. For the hard to find stuff Gold Rush is the spot, but for everything else there's cheaper elsewhere.

    I came down here for lunch with a friend earlier today after completing some projects around the…read morehouse earlier. Alaskan Burger & Brew has three locations in town and this one is located on Old Seward Hwy and E. 80th Ave. in front of Dino's Donuts. The dining room interior has a comfortable retro old-diner feel with 50's tunes playing. I wish more places were like this. The trendy metropolitan look that a lot of the newer restaurants are using for the dining area are nice, but they lack a certain comfort a classic diner look has when you're enjoying a meal. Not too many places have that feel in the fast-paced world we live in now. We chose a booth in the middle next to a stuffed Dall Sheep on display that towers over you. The employee at the front counter was friendly and very quick to take our order. I decided to go with the Mac & Cheese Burger (1/2lb. patty, bacon, macaroni & jalapeno cheese topped with melted American & Nacho cheese). My friend ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger (caramelized onions, mushrooms, Swiss cheese, and house dressing). We both picked onion rings for the side. The wait was only a few minutes before our orders arrived. Luckily, we came in before several people arrived to order for the lunch rush. The burgers were delicious as other Yelpers have stated in their reviews, but the onion rings were not that great. I will choose a different side next time. Other notable items on their menu include the Flamin' Hot Cheetos Burger (1/2 lb. beef patty, Hot Cheetos, and house Nacho cheese), Burger & Brew salad (1/2lb. patty on a bed of mixed greens, avocado, pickled onions, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, Swiss cheese with firecracker aioli and avocado dressing), the Octopus Dogs (beef hot dog links cut and fried to look like an octopus), and the Wild Fries topped with pico de gallo, chorizo, pickled onions, jalapenos, cheese sauce, and avocado dressing. Orders are available through GrubHub and DoorDash delivery. A sign is set up by the entrance showing their daily specials. This place is a good option for lunch during the work week.

They have a self-serve condiment bar with free pepperoncini and sauces. I had the bacon cheeseburger which was pretty good. It was dripping with juice and it was a good size too. Love that they serve it with seasoned fries. They were tasty and crispy. Not a super crazy menu but I would come back again for some burger!
