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.

Had this on tap in Seattle. This was actually pretty good. Had everything you would expect from a brown ale, slight sweetness, slight hops, and quite drinkable. Nothing outstanding, but drinkable and nice with a meal.

Bottle. Rich and sweet chocolate aroma. Dark mahogany color. Complex malty flavor. The sweet chocolate comes through and the. The beer lacks any lingering bitter aftertaste which makes this brew very drinkable. What an amazing beer. This beer has the best elements of a brown ale, but also some characteristics of Altbier or a porter.

pretty much exactly how i’d imagine making out with a moose would taste like. light, brown nectar. real thin brew, not thick or heavy at all. for some reason was really enjoying it this way even though i usually like thicker brewz. easy to drink!

Clear brown color, nice head. nice burnt malt presence. moderately hoppy. definitely a malty beer but it thankfully isn’t very sweet at all. definitely one of the better browns i’ve had.

12 oz bottle. Light chestnut color with a thin soapy white head. Nice light creamy palate. Very mild and clean hop aroma with a slightly nutty maltiness. Taste has a bit of a hop tingle, but it’s mostly a malt show. The hop aroma is very good for a brown however, and the beer is very drinkable and refreshing.

Not sure if I like this or not. Drank from the bottle, and there’s a big difference between aroma (bread, raisins) and flavor (nutty). From the tap it’s much more balanced. Dark brown in color either way, with not much head and minimal lace.

Pours a dark, dark brown, almost black like cola. Thick creamy, toffee head fades, but not completely. A thin layer of creamy, yeasty foam stays for the duration. This ale smells like cookie dough, tastes like a hazelnut milkshake. Delightful!!!! 99 cents for a pint at Discount Liquor in Milwaukee on 9/21/2007.

Pours dark and thin, little head and next to no lacing. Smells like oatmeal raisen but has a nutty-pine taste. A little thin , smooth finish.
