Brewery: Kodiak Island Brewing Company
Location: Kodiak, Alaska, USA
Kodiak Island lies off the south coast of Alaska and is the second largest island in the United States. Although roughly the size of Connecticut, Kodiak Island is called home by only 14,000 inhabitants. Kodiak, once the capital of Russian Alaska, is the largest town on the island with a mere 6,300 people.
Kodiak is known for its fishing industry, its amazing scenery and of course Kodiak brown bears. The Kodiak brown bear can weigh more than 1,500 pounds, only the Polar bear is bigger. With rugged beauty and the feel only an island can bring, I don't think there could be a more perfect place for a small craft brewery!
Kodiak Island Brewing has been around for 5 years and has a handful of year round beers and quite a few tasty sounding seasonals and specialty beers. Recently the 100th batch of their Liquid Sunshine was brewed. Congratulations, I hear its incredible!

I've got a growler of Liquid Sunshine (his 100th batch of sunshine) and Ben's latest stout in my fridge right now! Yum, yum!
Your Maine beers look good. Lots of folks from Maine in Alaska.... I'll have to ask them about the beer back there. And there are a couple folks from Kodiak who moved to Maine just recently.... I'll have to ask them.
Cheers!
