Moosehead Lager

Moosehead Lager comes in a clear and golden color, and is topped with a small white head that tries its best to stick around for a while. The carbonation is high in this one, both in the body and the head actually. After opening the bottle, a skunk runs out, but it’s in minimal amount and not offensive. Following it is the typical grainy and malty aroma, which has that neutral feel. The taste starts sweet, followed by a grainy body and slightly bittery finish. Nothing special, but exactly as I like it. A very drinkable and refreshing beer, which will chill you down in a hot summer’s day. But just one, may not be enough, so bring out a couple of these mooses (meese, moose).
