They Say: “It’s chocolate brown in color with a creamy texture. A malty beer with just enough hop presence to keep it from being too sweet. The aroma mostly comes from the malt with a hint of spice added by the hops. Moose Drool is brewed with pale, caramel, chocolate, and whole black malts; and Kent Goldings, Liberty, and Willamette hops. It has an original gravity of 13 degrees Plato, and is 4.2% alcohol by weight, 5.3% by volume.”

We Say: If you’re looking for a fantastic, please-the-masses pub brown ale, this is the one. It pours like a manly beer, with its deep brownish-red, semi-opaque body and medium to full amber head. It has a very sweet, almost sugary aroma and a velvety, creamy mouth. The taste is also predominantly sweet, but balanced off with a tart hint of hops. The beer is easy to consume, very drinkable and has very little aftertaste.
