Another great local brewery in the heart of downtown Palmer, Matanuska Brewery has an amazing selection of handcrafted offerings to please everyone in the group. Indoor and outdoor seating available, even on a cold winter day, just grab a spot in the heated igloos on the deck. The poke nachos and fish tacos are a personal favorite, and you can never go wrong with a burger. Just head towards the Palmer water tower and you can’t miss it.

We had a great tour, approximately 2 hours long. Crampons and walking poles were available for use. Walked out on the ice, learned about the different types of ice that make up a glacier, even drank fresh cold water right from the source.
