off lager beers that i have had this is the worst. My previous roomate father worked in the moosehead brewery, so was prefenrential to it so had no choice but to see it in my fridge. Aroma is a grassy/barnyard like tinge with a hint of something like burnt paper to it. Has a golden pale appearence with medium head. Flavor is bitter hint of sweet. Your first mouthful you get a slight cringe. I don’t drink this too much.

A real bready flavored lager. nothing special. I can’t say it’s a bad beer, but there are plenty of better lagers out there. I wont be drinking this again any time soon.

Bottle, 355ml. Never been fond of the smell. Doesn’t look particularly good either... Goes down easy enough, which is often all you ask of a macro. I call it an old reliable, as I rarely get tired of it, though I try to do better.

A pale beer that is nothing too special in my opinion. Though it had some decent flavor with lots of carbonation. I probably will not drink this beer again.

31-Jul-07 (12 oz bottle: BevMo in La Jolla, CA) Moosehead might not be a bad beer if it weren’t so sweet. At the forefront are the sweet, cardboardy and vaguely bready malts, but the beer doesn’t exactly taste malty. And though the beer doesn’t taste hoppy either, a gently spicy and vaguely bitter flavor seems to indicate the theoretical presence of hops, giving the beer at least some credibility. Unfortunately, the imaginary hops fades on the palate, leaving the papery sweetness to stand alone in the uncleansing finish. Aroma is a little cardboardy too, but mostly just sweet and honeylike. Light-medium bodied with ample carbonation, but this beer leaves the palate fatigued and stale. Dark straw in color and perfectly clear, just as the beer should be. Quarter-inch white head fades to a wide ring, but no lacing. Not something I’d ever buy, but I’m quite sure you can do worse than Moosehead.

Pours blonde with overly large white head. Slightly skunky aroma with a slight grainy metallic flavor. Very similar to Lowenbrau.
