Moosehead Lager

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

Appearance: Pours a pale straw yellow color with a bleach white head. There is lots of active carbonation rising from the bottom. Smell: Grain and sweet malt aromas are apropos for the style. Impressive, maybe not but sweet and pleasant, certainly. Taste: This is an average macro. It is far better than BMC to me and as an All Malt lager it holds its own though many micros are superior, this one is damn cheep. For the price you could buy PBR or Moosehead Lager. It has a sweet grain and malty barley flavor that that ends with hop bitter, dry finish but little flavor from the hop flower. There is just enough sweet and dry balanced flavor to make it somewhat interesting. Mouthfeel: Smooth typical malty body that is light in weight and crisp around the edges. Drinkability: Okay, so I thought I was going to hate this beer but it turns out I surprised to find a bit of flavor. Still, this is a session beer to choose when you are aiming for quantity per $ not quality. In other words it is a suitable choice for a party beer. Hope this is helpful. Cheers!

Clear gold, with a good thick head. Mostly malt, with a smooth medium body that was better than I remembered.

12 oz bottle .pours a light golden with a white head.Aromas of sweet malt and hops are present.A sweet malty taste that is taken over slightly by the hops.A little off balanced but still when ice cold it gets the job done.

Draught. Short white head. Clear golden body. Weak hops aroma. Thin body with a relatively sweet flavor without much bitterness.

A very typical lager. Pours mild yellow with a medium head. A run of the mill summer beer. Not great but not bad.

Easy to drink, fairly refreshing, but not very good. Skunky and little flavor. LOL lordbeamish... I have to comment on you since you commented on someone else. There is definitely a canadian ass flavor to this beer. If you cant taste it you need to get out more.

Yummy! Ice cold, this goes down smooth and refreshingly. Nice aroma and distinct flavour. Lager lovers will enjoy this one while catching some summer rays. Btw, what the hell is a ’Canadian’ taste???? (see rating two down from me) I think it’s called ALCOHOL my American friends.

Here we go, another pale lager that hits home: definite sweetness in the taste, slight hops, slight malt, very slight bitterness, and what a finish - very smooth. What a refreshing, summer beer should be. Of course there are heavier, more flavourful beers out there, but this is a pale lager so take it for what it is. (Side vent: why are so many people on this site roasting pale lagers for lack of body?! It’s like visiting the Maratimes & complaining there is too much water, or complaining that pretzles are too salty, etc.). If you want an easy-drinking yet flavourful beer, then fresh Moosehead is a winner.
