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.

Brown pour with a nice red center to it. Nutty caramel nose with a hint of chocolate. Flavor is a little more chocolate upfront with the caramel and nutty flavors as well and a mild hop presence. A little too watery, but outside of that a solid brown ale.

Pours a nice ruby brown with a 2 finger tan head that fades rather quickly to a thickish skin. Aroma is chocolate, caramel, dark fruits, plenty off rich buttery roasted nuts, and some floral/herbal hops. Flavor is nutty, grainy, a little chocolate, caramel and some herbal hops. Body is a little over carbonated and thin, but still a little sticky.

Cloudy brown with an internal red hue. Cashews, malt & driftwood nose....all fairly light. Crisp....with sunflower seeds and a touch of fennel? Malt and cocoa deeper in the palate. Finish is light with the cashews appearing on the finale. Soft and crisp in the mouth. Decent.

Bottle: crystal malt and plum aroma. A very nice beer with slight dryness, heavy carbonation and with a smoked malt taste dominating. It has a slightly sweet dark caramel vinous taste coming through which is nice and sets it apart from other brown ales.

A very nice brown ale. Nice pour of a dark caramel brown with a thick tan head. Aroma is malty of caramel and nuts but with a nice chocolate aftertone and a slight hop presence. Flavor is much of the same with a good bitter finish. Creamy texture and very easy to drink.

~Pours a rich amber brown color with small off white head. ~Crystal caramel malts, raisin, sweet chocolate malts, and nuts in the scent. ~Caramel malt taste, as well as raisins. ~Medium feel, smooth, bitter aftertaste. ~Well made brown ale, lots of scents and flavor make this an interesting brew.

This was a nice brown ale, with a tiny seet aroma. The taste gave me a well balanced example of the style,with a twist. Glad to have the chance to taste. Thanks Mark.
