Moosehead Lager

Brewed by Moosehead Brewery
Style: Pale Lager
Saint John, Canada

Serve in Dimpled mug, English pint, Lager glass, Shaker

Pours a decent looking clear pale color with nice white head that dissipated quickly and left a little bit of lacing on the glass. Aroma was skunky. Flavor was less skunky and a light grassy flavor. Carbonation was heavy while mouthfeel was light. Nothing I would ever seek out again.

For the record, it’s better to drink it in New Brunswick, Canada. Still, a potent Canadian lager and a nice alternative to the Molson-Labatt brews that are widely available in the USA. Sure it’s skunky but so are many Canadian bieres.

A very typical big brand lager. Clear yellow, virtually no dead. Light bodied. Very mild grassy hop flavour. Seems to have a reputation for being an expensive/quality beer here in Ireland for some reason.

A buddy of mine and I used to stand in front of all the beers at the grocery store and argue about which one to try next. We didn’t know a gd thing about beers, and we thought that by going north of the border for this Canadian lager we were thinking outside the box. To tell you the truth i always enjoyed the skunky aroma because I thought it was what a "man’s beer" was supposed to taste like. Not a beer I’ll go looking for but if I come across it and it’s on clearance I wouldn’t hesitate to pick up a 6er.

In my opinion, it’s quite different than your typical lager, besides the obvious, the light greenish color. Has a smooth taste, but lacks any presence of hop flavor. Another beer you can drink all night without getting full.

thin, fizzy, corny sweetness, skunky aroma. Typical mass produced mega swill

Reminds me immensely of Yuengling. Aroma is barely existent with a slight, slight hop characteristic. Taste is smooth and inoffensive. Not a bad bet, I wouldn’t be upset about drinking this if it was the best thing available.

Not as good as I recall. Smell is a bit skunky, but not so much in the flavor. Poured with a nice fluffy white head and some lace. Lovely golden color. Huge grain flavor like unfermented sweetness and taste.
