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.

Pours brown with a light white head. Aroma is malt, toffee, some caramel. Flavor is more of the same although this is a pretty watery beer. Tasted good cold, but nothing mind blowing.

Bottle. Pours a watery brown, with not much head. Aromas are of some caramel, dirt, some malt, some nut presence. Flavors arent very striking in this, the king of Montana beers. Weak coffe and choclate taste with maybe some acorn notes. A little sweet, but very thin and watery. light bitter in the end.

Tasted at the San Diego International Beer Festival. Copper brown with a creamy tan head. Molasses nutty and roasty aroma but a perfumey soapy taste.

Can. Pours with a mahogany brown body and a khaki, mountainous head with some lace. Aroma is sweet with hazelnuts, berries, tar, chocolate, turbinado sugar, and a lightly metallic note. Taste is chocolate, light roast, earth and a slightly fruity finish. Somewhat sweet overall with low levels of bitterness. Water-like mouthfeel and feels as if it is force carbonated. Very nice brown ale.

12oz bottle served in a stem glass. Clear dark brown body with a thin off-white head. Smells of cocoa powder, vegetal, and toffee. Taste is coffee, ash, cocoa, fruity. Lasting finish with some roastedness. Much more flavor than a typical brown ale but the flavor that is there just isn’t doing it for me.

really a great Beer! When i first poured it i knew i was in for something great, it looked almost dark enough to be considered a Stout, its just a really Dark Brown ale, The best i have ever Drank, I am looking forward to the Other five i have in the Fridge. Aroma was amazing a Great Carmel, Coffee, malt Smell. The flavor was magnificent, really wasnt Expecting it from a brown ale, it really took me by suprise. You must try it if you like Dark Bears, or stouts! Will try Other Big sky Brews!
