HooDoo Brewing for a pint is always a terrific stop and if you have time to venture up to the Silver Gulch, it's definitely worth it and a pretty nice ride as well.

    Interesting beer note: at "The Banks" in Fairbanks, a pint of Alaskan Amber will run $5.50 and a 22 oz will set you back $7.75. At Breaker's Roadhouse in Marquette, MI, it's $4.25 for a pint and $5.75 for 22 oz. Odd that Alaskan beer is cheaper in Michigan than it is in Alaska~
    You're really underestimating the market for booze up here. Supply and demand.

      I seriously wouldn't be surprised to see an own goal this weekend the way this season has gone for both these teams.

        I think I know this one. I saw the movie.
        Something like…
        1. You do not talk about Seawolve hockey,
        2. You DO NOT talk about Seawolve hockey,
        3. You do not watch or attend any Seawolve games.

        Am I close?

          I'm just glad I no longer have to wrap that 6 pack in the dirty clothes in the suitcase and hope the TSA and baggage handlers don'e steal or break them! Best wishes to both teams on rivalry weekend. Really wish I could be in all five rinks to see how the various rivalries play out.

            Seawolf basketball didn't want to come play with us tomorrow. I'm kind of bummed.

                    If you didn't leave to begin with, it wouldn't be an issue at all.

                      You are in the know so clue me in .....
                      What is up with the Alaska teams have to buy all hotel rooms for visiting teams as well as the almost 15 grand they have to provide for travel.

                      UAF made the kind of hockey history on October 10th 2015 that no team wants to claim – the Nanooks became the first NCAA Division I victim of Arizona State.

                        UAF, UAA and UAH all have to front the costs for that as it was the stipulation for being allowed in the league for at least the first few years. Not sure the full reason for UAA then since they've been in the league for much longer but that's the reason I've been told.

                          Because us and UAH aren't smart enough to be located in the upper Midwest.

                            From ADN:

                            "According to NCAA, the (UAF) hockey team used ineligible players in every game played from the 2007-08 season to the 2010-11 season. Over that span, the wins and ties will all become losses. 4 wins and 2 ties came against rival UAA".

                            UAF is 56-86-12 vs. UAA.

                              It's not "almost 15 grand".
                              We have been giving them $15,450 and they want more cash in addition to hotel rooms.
                              They also get all the revenue from the additional home games the NCAA gives them as a reward for coming to Alaska.
                              And not having sat in on the meetings I don't know what else they are demanding.
                              Just wondering if "greedy ********" has entered anyones thoughts?

                                Not only that, you're putting them up at the nicest hotel in Anchorage (although I'm sure the rooms are an in-kind donation).
                                We used to put teams at the Westmark. Now we have the wisdom to stick our opponents at the airport La Quinta.
