Stayed in the resort to go fishing. So after a day on the water going to Timbers was a great way to relax with great selection of beers on tap and some good wines. The dinners we enjoyed were wonderfully prepared and delicious. The chili Salmon, the halibut, and their steaks were all done to perfection. I can't forget the local oysters were incredibly good. The staff were all friendly and professional and made the meals that much more enjoyable.

You will know the moment you walk in that this is not your typical brew pub. The scent of the alder wood grill and wood fired oven, the energy of the sparking exhibition cooking line and the glow of the brewery delight your senses. The BrewHouse features rotisserie grilled meats, the freshest Alaskan seafood, brick oven pizza and award winning hand crafted ales. The BrewHouse is Anchorage’s downtown landmark restaurant-“Where Alaskans meet Alaskans”.

The food was excellent and the service was great. The fruit was all perfectly ripe and tasty. The French toast was great with fresh whipped cream and berry compote. And the desserts - perfection. The only issue we had was it was a little chilly in the restaurant - as it was -28 that morning, and the hot water for hot tea was on the tepid side. However, the coffee was reported as very good.
