Tasting Profile

4.3Untappd

Gutted pours a deep, near-black mahogany with a thin khaki head that fades quickly, leaving only faint traces of lace on the glass — classic for a high-gravity barrel-aged dark ale of this stature. On the nose, the Woodford Reserve Double Oaked barrels announce themselves immediately: rich bourbon, caramelised brown sugar, and dark dried fruits — raisins, sun-dried cherries — are layered beneath a whisper of anise and vanilla. The palate is where Gutted truly earns its reputation. The mouthfeel is silky and full-bodied, with a luscious sweetness underpinned by molasses, toffee, and dark stone fruit. Bourbon integration is seamless, warming without becoming aggressive, while a gentle oakiness adds structure and restraint. The finish is long, sweet, and satisfying, echoing caramel and dried fruit with a faint boozy warmth that lingers elegantly. Despite its intensity, Gutted rewards patience — whether opened fresh or cellared for several years, this is a beer that ages gracefully and only grows more complex with time. A benchmark release from one of Alaska’s most celebrated craft breweries. Explore community ratings and tasting notes on Untappd.

Food Pairing

Anchorage Gutted is a superb companion to a rich dark chocolate fondant with caramel sauce, where the beer’s brown sugar and bourbon-laced sweetness amplify the dessert’s bittersweet intensity. It also pairs beautifully with a slow-braised short rib in a red wine reduction — the beer’s dark fruit character and velvety mouthfeel cutting through the richness with ease.
