Big Sky Moose Drool

From Big Sky Brewing – 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.

Appearance: Pours an amber brown with a white head that quickly subsided to a mere ring.  Didn’t leave any lacing on this pour.

Aroma: Dark fruit,walnuts and a touch of roast.

Taste: Fruity notes up front, pear perhaps, burnt toast, Brazil nuts with a modest spicy hop finish.

Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, very prickly.

Overall: A pretty solid brown ale. I would definitely drink this again if I was in a Brown Ale mood.
