Today is day 9 of AK Beer Week! Last night my wife and I poured for Coronado Brewing Co. and Full Sail Brewing at the first session of the Great Alaska Beer & Barley Wine Festival, and after the festivities we hopped on a bus to the after party at Cafe Amsterdam where Alaskan Brewing presented Ken and Shauna Pajak a painting that AK Brewing commissioned from me as a thank you present to the Pajak’s for hosting the event for ten years.

Today’s Year of Beer painting is of another notable Alaska brew – Darth Deliruim from Broken Tooth Brewing in Anchorage, AK. I hope Luke gets to drink that tasty pint, however, if he does, I know it will be over for the Rebel Alliance because even with the Emperor meeting his demise, this dark ale is sure to convert Luke to the dark side!
