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.

UPDATED: MAR 2, 2013 Pours brown with a tan head. Aroma of caramel, malts, and roasted nuts, Taste has the same properties. Pretty good but not quite there with Short’s and Bell’s browns, in my opinion.

Tap. Pours deep, dark brown with average, frothy off-white head; good retention and lacing. Aroma sweet, roasted malts, figs, dates, floral hops, and light caramel. Flavor is sweet and toasted malts, floral hops, and dark fruit esters, and light chocolate; dry finish. Medium body and low carbonation.

Brown ale taken on with Big Sky’s typical aplomb. Solid brown, but a little rich for me.

Very drinkable beer. Oddly dark, so the dark roasted malt and grain is no surprise in the taste and aroma. Nothing special to me, but fairly unique and worth trying at least once.

This is a good brown ale that you can drink regularly. I actually keep this one in the fridge for guests and new craft beer drinkers

Xmas eve at Al’s...in my pint glass this beer is a very dark brown, with just a slight ring of cappucino foam on the top. I like the aroma of this one, pine needles, damp earth, and light chocolate notes. Taste is much more bitter than the sroma would suggest, body is quite thin and the flavor has almost an astringency to it. Ok beer, but needs to mellow a bit.

Pours brown with a red hue. Aroma is malty bread and roasty aromas and faint hints of pine. Taste is chocolate roasty malts up front and gives way to a more smokey malt flavor and finishes with some pine flavors. One of the great american brown ales out there and definitely enjoyable.
