Commercial Description:
Moose Drool is our Brown Ale. Far and away the best selling beer brewed in Montana, Moose Drool is chocolate brown in color with a creamy texture. Our brown ale is a malty beer with just enough hop presence to keep it from being too sweet. The aroma also mostly comes from the malt with a hint of spiciness being added by the hops. Moose Drool is brewed with pale, caramel, chocolate, and whole black malts; and Kent Goldings, Liberty, and Willamette hops. It has an original gravity of 13 degrees Plato, and is 4.2% alcohol by weight, 5.3% by volume.

moos drool is not what I ecpected. I enjoyed the beer however not as much as my brother amped it up to be. I will probably not go out of my way to buy this beer however I would not turn one down if offered to me either.

Aroma: Big malt character with spices in the back ground. Appearance: Moose Drool is clear, deep brown and has a tall off white head. Flavor: The toasted/roasted malts are the dominant flavor; it does have spice notes in the back ground. Overall Impression: A solid beer, the toasted/roasted malts are not my thing.

12oz bottle. Pours a clear, brown-ruby body with a finger-width, beige, foamy head that leaves a good amount of lacing. Aroma is mostly berry malts. Some light citrus and toffees, but mostly sweet berries. Flavor is much nicer than the aroma. Very nutty and smooth. Some lightly roasted grains, toasted caramels and toffees, and a hint of chocolate. A touch of spicy hop taste. Some light citrus and berries, but not nearly as prevalent as the aroma. Soft, roasty, bitter lingering flavor after a dry finish. Body is malty, full, and exceptionally creamy and smooth. Overall, a really nice brown ale. Good flavor and fantastic body. Solid stuff.

On tap. Brown color of course, maybe more copper actually. Dark roasted, nutty aroma. Flavor was much the same, very easy to drink, not bad, but not great either.

Pours an almost black with reddish brown accents. The head is a huge mocha coloured bubbly monster with really nice lacing. Aroma has tones of hazelnut, chocolate, some grainy malt, a hint of earthiness, and spice. Tastes roasty and nutty. Chocolate, spice, hazelnut, and caramel. Mouth feel is soft and pleasant. By far the best brown I’ve tasted so far.

Bottle. Ooh, 666th rating for this brew! Nutty chocolate nose with a touch of caramel and roasty black malt, very faint hoppiness. Chestnut-mahogany pour with a quivering tan head. Sweet start with roast and nuts, body is medium-full, dryish finish. On the whole, smooth and flavorful malt-forward brew, nice example in a relatively boring style.

Pours chestnut brown with a small amount of lacing. Mild aroma, transitioning into a pleasant if somewhat mild taste. Not quite on the level of Bell’s or Goose Island, but a very drinkable ale.
