COVID is long gone, no one is wearing masks, but this policy remains. All I can think of is that it's some sort of anti-homeless-people initiative or some other way to keep "unsavory" people out of the store. They still are the best place for the best ethanol-containing beverages and it's their store, they can do whatever they want, I just have no idea why they are adding additional friction to the shopping experience. One other thing: no more chilled cans of wine, you'll have to go to Brown Jug for that now. Why? I have no idea. Canned wine probably has 10X the demand as Sake and...that ethanol containing beverage has a massive cooler dedicated to it.

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.

Perhaps the best way to describe La Bodega is as a boutique liquor store. Every bottle is on the…read moreshelf because the owners think you will enjoy it, and it shows. This has always been my first choice when looking for seasonal and limited-release beers and should be your first choice as well. La Bodega (previously Yukon Spirits) appeared on my radar because it's the only place in Anchorage that encourages buying individual bottles of beer. Per-bottle prices are usually the six-pack price divided by six, and they have a box-full of empty six-packs for convenience. Warts: the selection varies, so if you like it you'd better stock up, and they don't have sales, so Brown Jug is the better deal if there's a sale on the beer or wine you want. This being Anchorage, though, I am willing to look the other way if it means that I can have easy access to this much quality beer. Between La Bodega and the Brown Jug Warehouse, Old Seward between 36th and Tudor is definitely the place to be for fans of beer and wine. Located near Natural Pantry. There's an outside entrance, as they are open somewhat later than the mall stores.

The Elf on the Shelf Pizza = 10/10…read more Recently, we visited Anchorage and were told that we absolutely had to try Moose's Tooth. I'll admit, when I first started reading the menu, I was a little concerned I wasn't going to find something I'd like. Some of the combinations were definitely outside of what I would normally order. Then I spotted the Elf on the Shelf pizza. We asked our amazing waiter what he thought about it, and when he told us it was one of his favorites, we decided to commit and give it a try. Let me just say... MIND. BLOWN. This pizza was easily a 10/10 for me. The combination of flavors worked together so perfectly, and it ended up being one of my favorite meals from our entire Alaska trip. My only complaint? I'm back home in Arizona and we have nothing like it here! But I guess that just gives me another reason to come back to Alaska. Moose's Tooth, you officially have an Arizona girl dreaming about Elf on the Shelf pizza.

It also happened to be Monday, and the lunch special slice that day was the Call of the Wild, which was exactly the one I wanted to try. The Call of the Wild had reindeer sausage, steak, bacon, mushrooms, red peppers, cheese, and garlic cream sauce. The reindeer sausage was what sold me on it. If I'm eating pizza in Alaska, I might as well get the one with reindeer on it. It was savory, meaty, and very good. We also got a small Brewhouse Favorite with chorizo, sun-dried tomatoes, onions, cheese, and Denali sauce. The spicy chorizo and tangy tomatoes were a great combo. The thin crust was excellent. Chewy with a nice crisp edge, and sturdy enough to hold all the toppings without getting soggy. Lots of seating, plenty of parking, and a fun atmosphere.
