Sips of The Mat-Su
In The Mat-Su, local flavor is something you can taste in every glass. Our breweries and distilleries are the social anchors of our communities, turning the Valley’s agricultural bounty and pristine glacial runoff into world-class libations. This is the arès-adventure headquarters, where hikers, mushers, and pilots gather to swap trail stories over a cold pint or a warm spirit.

We play hard and we celebrate well here. We invite you to be a steward of our community and yourself while enjoying our local pours:
- Know Your Limits: High altitudes and cold weather can change how your body processes alcohol. Stay hydrated with our delicious tap water between rounds to ensure you’re ready for next day’s trek.
- Plan Your Transport: Our communities are connected by scenic roads, but safety comes first. Use local shuttle services, rideshares, or designate a sober skipper to navigate the Valley.
- Respect the Wildlife: If you’re walking back to your lodge or cabin after a night out, remember that you’re in moose country. Stay alert, make noise, and carry a flashlight.
