back

Giving back to a place that has given us so much is part of how we live life Alaskan.

So when you tip the Brew Crew, we pass your generosity on to our community. Each year, the Alaskan Brew Crew gives our collection of annual tips and proceeds from fundraisers to a local nonprofit organization. For 2024, we’ve selected the Juneau Animal Rescue as our community partner. Learn more at Juneau Animal Rescue.

Life in Alaska is about more than the place we live; it’s about the creatures we share it with, too

And one of the most iconic Alaskan creatures is the Alaskan Husky. Alaskan Brewing’s Ales for Tails program is a charitable giving program inspired by our Husky IPA. The Ales for Tails program allows us a chance to give back to the loyal four-legged friends that many of us call family and has raised nearly $100,000 so far for registered animal nonprofits like humane societies and rescue organizations.

Ales for tails

Alaskan Brewing Co. has dedicated a portion of the profits from pints of Husky IPA sold at participating locations to support nonprofit animal organizations like rescues and humane societies. We’re calling this dog-focused program Ales for Tails. Since 2017, the Ales for Tails program has raised nearly $100,000 for animal nonprofits, with participation in Alaska, Washington, California, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, Texas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Michigan, Nevada, South Dakota, and Ohio.

Husky IPA

Giving back to four-legged
friends with every pint

Due to its overwhelming popularity, Husky IPA was added to our year-round lineup in September of 2017, with Ales for Tails returning along with it. With the introduction of Husky IPA in cans in 2019, the Ales for Tails program hopes to exceed previous years’ donations and to inspire even more participation with furry friends from Anchorage to Cleveland receiving aid. That’s a lot of wagging tails!

Alaska has over 6,500 miles of coastline

the most of any state in the US…

… so healthy oceans and waterways are incredibly important to us. Alaskan Brewing promotes sustainable business and brewing, but we also promote sustainable living. To help promote the health and sustainability of our oceans and waterways, Alaskan Brewing donates 1% of all proceeds from Alaskan Icy Bay IPA to the Coastal CODE program.
