Alaskan Brewing Co. Commemorates 40 Years with Limited Edition 40 Pack

JUNEAU, AK—For Alaskan Brewing Co., 40 years is both an amazing milestone and a stepping stone along the path of its continued legacy. To celebrate four decades of crafting authentically Alaskan, community- and employee-owned beer, the brewery has released a variety pack like no brewery has released before: the Alaskan 40 pack.

Loaded with four cans each of 10 of Alaskan’s signature beers, this 40 pack is perhaps the largest variety pack ever assembled by a craft brewery. It includes Alaskan Amber, Husky IPA, Kölsch, Icy Bay IPA, White Ale, Class 5 Pale Ale, Juneau Juice IPA, Excursion West Coast IPA, Ascender Pale Ale, and Wildness. It was made as a thank you from Alaskan to its fans to give them a reason to gather that’s also reasonably priced.

“What I love about our 40 pack, and what I’d love to see come back, is that notion of ‘let’s go have a beer’,” says Geoff Larson, Alaskan Co-Founder. “Let’s sit down and talk and have a beer. Invite friends over, open up the 40-pack, celebrate, and enjoy.”

As pioneering leaders in the craft beverage industry, Alaskan Brewing adds this 40 pack to a history of innovations implemented, awards achieved, and even patents acquired over the years. Founders Geoff and Marcy Larson’s vision for their truly Alaskan operation—run by Alaskans and inspired by the surrounding wilderness—has come to life through the tenacity and grit required to live and work in its vast frontier.

Craft beer lovers in Alaska and Alaskan’s additional 24-state footprint can find the Alaskan 40 pack starting now in select retailers while supplies last. Share your 40th anniversary celebrations on social media with @alaskanbrewing and the hashtag #Alaskan40.

Media are invited to join Alaskan Brewing Co. leaders at a virtual 40th anniversary press conference, slated for Tuesday, August 25 at 1 p.m. Pacific. RSVP to this exclusive media event and inquire about the Alaskan Brewing 40 pack by emailing Emily Hutto at hutto at radcraftbeer dot com.
