    Tacos
    Douglas D.

    We first visited Midnight Sun five years ago on an Anchorage brewpub tour. We are from Ohio. Our son recently moved to Anchorage, and we were anxious to return. We love the beer. We love the food. I've been following on IG since our visit. The Taco Tuesdays have caught my attention. So we picked a Tuesday. Well worth the visit. I had three tacos: pork, beef, and potato. Very good. We look forward to our next visit.

    Beer flight
    Brandy C.

    Midnight Sun was my first stop in Anchorage. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had a full dining in food menu; paired with their list of beers. I opted for a beer flight and ordered a pint of one of the 4 beers I tried. All tasted great! On the way out, I checked out their cute little merch shop to snag a koozie and souvenirs!

    Midnight, sun has easy earned a seat at the top 10 breweries in Alaska They are brewery that is not afraid to take chances on stouts and various beers that are fantastic. I love it when breweries take a chance on various beers! Overall for a IPAs I would recommend the puffin, PleasureTown and, of course, the infamous panty peeler! The atmosphere was very relaxing, and they have outside seating as well! The menu was fantastic with some great choices and staff was helpful was well!

    Canned cocktail with honey stick
    V Z.

    Service was a little dodgy when we went in terms of timely refills. We also tried sitting at one table after they told us to sit anywhere, and they asked us to move to a different table. There were a lot of people when we got there, but not for long, so other tables freed up quickly. We struggled for space with our party of 4. There was no dessert on the menu, and when we asked about it, they said there wasn't one for the day. Jokes were made about serving maple syrup and bacon. The food we did order was edible, but what wasn't consumed wasn't worth taking home. The canned cocktail was good, but the idea of a honey stick in a cold drink wasn't very well thought out.

    Bigger Better BLT Sandwich
    Michel S.

    Not impressed. I was looking for a place to have dinner and I wanted to support a small business as always. I looked up breweries and this place has 4.5 so I went. I walked up the stairs and I asked for a table to be told to sit anywhere. I sat outside and I was told that they only served there when they have a wait or they are really busy. If you want to sit outside, it would be self serve. So naturally, I moved back inside. I asked for a root beer and a water and the waitress was very nice and professional. I ordered my meal and she promptly brought my drinks. 5 minutes after placing the order another staff member asked me if I was okay while I had my drinks and everything. (Not sure if I was giving some weird vibe). A few minutes go by and I get my meal and I thought that it would be better. The focaccia bread it's massive. You can feed a squadron for sure. The amount of tomatoes or the thickness will question why you ordered it and just plain arugula. (I held the mayo because I hate mayo). I actually did not eat the entire bread because I just did not see the need. The soup was good but it had a lot curry and it was intended to be Spanish but it sure was leaning more Indian with all the curry. I have lived and visited Spanish countries and I have never eaten something like it. To be honest, I was hoping for a better meal but the biggest dissatisfaction was the fact that I drank the entire rootbeer and the water and I was not offered an additional drink. My waitress never came back to ask me if it tasted good or was it horrible, nothing! To top it off, my bill for a BLT sandwich with a side of chicken curry soup, a rootbeer and a glass of water came out to $28 + $6 tip = $34 was a shocker. I think the place is spacious, beautiful decor, the staff seems to care for their customers but I just don't see the ROI. I hope that you have better experience than I did.

    2 way burrito
    Tiffany R.

    I love midnight sun brewing for the cheap beers and good food. I've been coming here for about six months mainly because the food is delicious. I came here today and was mediocre. It was not as delicious as it usually is. I got the southwest wrap and he got the burrito. Service and beer were good. Think we will try some new brunch/lunch places before we come back. Rated 4/5 because the first time I came here it was amazing. Last few times I feel like food quality have been okay.

    The Smackdown and a flight of beer
    Anne L.

    This place is like a 4.5 stars... First sit down at a brewery since being in Alaska and ordered The Smackdown and the waiter tried to tell me it's big and that it was featured on a foodie show and I said "sure why not". I just thought he was hinting that it's a lot of food for me but he obviously has not seen me throw down food. When he put the meat platter down, it is huge! I was hooked on the first bite and I figured afterwards it's the garlic bread! I heart garlic bread and that made it 5 stars for me but since the meat variety wasn't all marinated/flavorful...I took half a star off. I'm not a beer person but there's definitely variety. If I hadn't ordered a flight, I probably would've finished the whole sandwich (and wore a badge of honor for it... And hated myself), but I didn't hate myself after eating half and finished my beer flight, so that's positive.

    The special

    Great food, cold beer, fantastic service. This place is a hidden gem. I will come back as soon as possible.

    Grilled chicken wrap
    Daniella A.

    I love Midnight Sun's beers. I think they're innovative,cover a wide variety of styles, and are most importantly very tasty! I think this is one of the more well known breweries in Alaska, and I had heard of them before I moved up here. I love that besides the classics they release beers that can only be found in the brewery so you have an exciting reason to stop by. On my last visit I had "termination dust", which was a long anticipated release on my part since I was pregnant last season. This barleywine did not disappoint. My favorite classics from them are panty peeler, monks mistress and pleasure town. I love that they have a kitchen in this brewery. Their menu is mainly sandwiches, but they also do daily specials that add some additional options. Each day their specials fit a theme. Their sandwiches are very tasty, and they have quite a variety to choose from. They also have a large selection of sandwiches that can be made into wraps, which my husband loves. They also make a good poke bowl, which is a random surprise. I've never gone for taco Tuesday, but have heard good things. Midnight Sun has a great beer selection, an in house kitchen, and a nice space with a small patio for summer time. They're definitely worth a visit if you're looking to have some good beer, and a simple meal!

    The "28". The best tasting Porter you'll ever have, and if you're a Stout fan you'll love this too!
    Brian M.

    Not only the tastiest beer in Alaska, but their "28" Porter is now my favorite beer ever, so yummy, and I'm normally a stout person. Guinness used to be my go-to beer, not anymore. The only problem is that they only make it every once in a while. It's not always available, so get it while you can if you see it. I promise you, you won't be disappointed. Oh yeah, and the food is awesome too! Can't get enough of this place!

    The Mountain Sandwich
    Daniel S.

    One of the better brewery/restaurants in Anchorage, with both the food and the beer being really good. I got the puffin pale ale, and the pleasure town, both very good and pale ales, but they have a wide variety of styles available, both on draft and to go. For food I got the mountain sandwich, which I loved, had a lot of meat and a nice soft bun. The staff were all super nice and cool. It's got both outdoor and indoor seating, with ample supply of both. The décor inside is cool, a nice wooden theme. They have a parking lot, but even if it's full there's nearby street parking. This may be the only time I get to AK so I'm glad I got to check this place out.

    Saison
    Queenie W.

    Great food, excellent service. I had the pupusa (Friday night special) and my friend had the Ahi Poke bowl as well as the Saison. Art on the wall was for sale.

Between its sweet, modern vibe, HUGE rooftop beer garden, and delicious options on tap I could easily have spent several hours here tasting my way through the menu. Alas, there wasn't time for a lengthy visit, so I sipped on a pint of their crisp, fresh Czech-style pilsner while gazing out at the beautiful mountains surrounding this amazing city. In cooler weather, they also have outdoor fire pits which looked like a ton of fun. Inside, there was plenty of seating amongst the brewery apparatus. And, while the beer line was long, the staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. This stop is definitely one to add to your beer list when traveling in the area!

I was in beautiful Anchorage and…read morewanted to grab some lunch. 49th state brewing was perfect because it wasn't far from my hotel and because it was so cold outside, I didn't want my walk to exceed 15 minutes. I was really hungry so I got there right when they opened at 11 a.m. I was able to be seated immediately and opted to sit upstairs where the tables were lower as compared to downstairs where the tables were high tops. Off the bat the food is phenomenal. For starters I got their popular handmade Bavarian pretzel. It was perfectly seasoned with butter and salt and the pretzel itself was soft and fluffy. It came with a side of cheese which was just as tasty. I was a little nervous it would taste like the melted cheese you eat at an amusement park- but this cheese had fantastic quality. One really neat thing about this brewery is they make their own fountain drinks! I tried the raspberry one and as you can see they aren't shy about the portions! The drink was really good. It had a great flavor to it, and a nice balance. The raspberry wasn't overpowering which I'm grateful for. For my entree I had the Yak burger that came with a side of tater tots. My waiter recommended I get it cooked at medium to keep it juicy. Typically I'm a medium well to well done type of girl, but I decided to trust his judgement and he was right! The burger was huge, messy, and delicious. The medium was definitely a good call. It was juicy but not so red where it would be off putting! Overall, I had a really incredible dining experience at 49th state brewing. And the prices were unbelievably reasonable. My meal came out to about $52 (not including my tip). I would love to come back when it's a bit warmer and sit outside- the views from the restaurant are phenomenal. Also, shout out to my waiter! I didn't get his name but he was so kind and the service was excellent!

They kept not coming up in the IG search results...weird. I initially was worried they went out of business because it said their IG page was down. I warned the birthday girl that maybe that had suddenly closed and joked "unless I'm blocked, lol" to which she replied "they blocked you!" So weird and so sad. Never in my 267 brewery reviews on Yelp has a brewery blocked me from their IG. (that I know of, lol) My only interactions with them on IG are to re-share their reels so my friends know what beers they have on tap or what food truck is out front. I guess if I had to guess it would be that my 3-star review about their being the only brewery in Anchorage that doesn't allow you to taste their beer first must've struck such a nerve that they researched to find what IG account is connected to my Yelp account, and then blocked me. Really disappointing, I always thought the owner/brewer seemed cool but I guess he has thin skin. Their Anchorage-style Pilsner is still one of the best beers in town, hopefully I'll get a pint tonight. Last night I had a west coast IPA and a Cold IPA. Both were good. The fact that you have 3 different IPAs on tap combined with a 3 drink limit by the state of Alaska...really speaks to why tastes are helpful. Still the worst name of any brewery. It sounds like a Temu beer kit that makes murky booze your friends pretend to like.
