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.

Bottled (at Chriso, BB 08/2009). Dark nut brown color, small beige head. Caramel and cardboard in the nose. Caramelly, slightly tart flavor. Some cardboardish hops. Standard boring brown ale. Needs more fresh bottle, I think.

"I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this beer. Rogue’s brown ale is by far my favorite but this was really enjoyable also. Dark brown pour with a tan head, coffee, sugar, malts in the smell. Good stuff!"

Pours a dark reddish brown with a lot of tan head. Aroma is hoppy with an alcohol bite. Flavor is mild, with a bit of coffee and caramel and a slightly hoppy aftertaste. Thin mouthfeel and a tad watery, but better as its temperature rose in the glass. Not bad.
