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.

Aroma of toffee, coffee and light hints of chocolate. Deep brown color with ruby hilites. Beige head that leaves quickly with some light lacing. Medium+ mouthfeel. Sort of chewy, a bit of sour, along with chocolate malt, not sweet. There is enough hop to balance the dark malt. A rather dry finish. Not nearly so harsh as most browns, but not so smooth as Newcastle by a long bit. Maybe a bit of fruit in the finish. Pretty tasty ale.

Good stuff!! POured a nice dark brown with a off white head that stayed. Aroma was malt and chocolate. Tasted smooth with caramel and malt and some slight sweetness.

12oz bottle. Deep Brown with a tan head that retreats quickly to a thin layer. Caramel and toasted malt aroma. Sweet up front, with chocolate and roasted malt. Some hops come to the forefront towards the end. Finishes dry.

Great beer! Very smooth and well balanced. Definitge session beer. Could use a little more body and choco malt to give it the classic profile. but it’s still good so wtf.

Ah, pretty weak for a brown ale i though, watery, not a lot of flavor there. its certainly drinkable, just nothing to flavorfull or nothing to offensive to it.

Didn’t like this one, so I have nothing to say about it. I think we got a bad batch or something, becuz its 81 percentile and I hated it.

(On tap) Dark brown with an orange glow and a small, off-white head. Lightly burned, toasted aroma. Medium body, notes of nuts and roasted malts and then a vague, ashy edge. Ends dry but not particularly bitter. A very decent Brown Ale. 230307
