What To Expect
1
Girdwood Brewing Company
Once fueled up on our lunches, we will make our way to Girdwood Brewing Company. Founded in 2017, we will cozy up in this beautiful brewery while we taste the hand crafted beers and receive a behind the scenes tour the brewery. Mingle with the locals and learn the art of brewing craft beer in the Last Frontier.

Turnagain Arm Drive
Continuing the adventure toward Anchorage, we will parallel the Turnagain Arm on the most scenic 40 mile drive in Alaska.

Anchorage Distillery
Continuing with our 100% Alaska crafted theme, we will visit the largest distillery in Alaska. Utilizing Alaska grown barley and wheat, fresh Alaskan berries, and pristine glacier water, Anchorage Distillery is crafting some of the state’s smoothest gins, vodkas, and whiskeys. We will sample these spirits straight or in a handmade craft cocktail and go behind the scenes to take a closer look at the production process.
4
Double Shovel Cider Company
Rounding out our Alaska Crafted Tour will find us at one of the most popular tasting rooms in the state, Double Shovel Cider Company. Named for a caribou antler formation prized by hunters, Double Shovel opened in 2016 as the first microcidery in Alaska. Sourcing as many local Alaskan apples as possible and utilizing a proprietary juice blend from the Pacific Northwest, see and sample these gluten free cider blends at the source. Your Alaska Crafted tour and transfer will finish with a hotel or airport drop-off.

What a wonderful way to end our cruise vacation... Bryan picked up eight of us (3 generations of family) at the Seward cruise port for a full day of site seeing and fun. We learned a lot about the area, had a wonderful lunch at Alyeska and all enjoyed the brewery, distillery and cider stops and tastings. They are all truly local places where we were very welcomed. Bryan had everything scheduled such that we had time to enjoy ourselves and time to see and do and learn so much. We highly recommend this tour... Don’t just take a bus to Anchorage - book a day with Big Swig Tours!

Bryan was an unbelievable guide with great knowledge of Alaska. Each of the stops was very personal with tours to learn about Brewing, distilling, and fermenting. Extremely well organized and timed with ample time to enjoy the views from the top of Alyeska. Highly recommend if going to Seward to do train one way and Bigswigs on the return to see Girdwood and the different scenery along the road and train line. Michael
