Banned
Happy hour is banned in Alaska. A bar has to charge the same price for a drink across any seven-day stretch, so short-term drink discounts are not allowed.

Happy hour in Alaska
Bars in Alaska can't discount drinks for part of the day, so there are no happy hour windows to list. What venues tend to offer instead is food specials and a lower everyday price on drinks.
