Description
Over 27 years ago, we met. 2 breweries, 2 kids later... here we are. Booming town, booming restaurant, boom. Great beer, great burgers, great environment, great place to hang out and watch the game with friends and family.
We chose Big Sky because it was the only ski resort in North America without a microbrewery. Steve's family "The Nordahl's" have been in Montana for well over 100 years. Because Steve's family is so nice and well-rounded, we decided we would raise our kids in Montana.
We started as a small mom and pop shop with 6 brews, 8 appetizers, kitchen behind the main bar, service ended at 8pm because of microbrewery laws. Now we have 14 brews on tap, full service bar and restaurant, expanded kitchen, expanded banquet area, on-premise and off-premise events, Music in the Mountains, Lobster Feasts, King Crab Feasts, Music, Comedy, Award Winning Brews and Award Winning Food.

Draft: Reddish brown pour with a bit of fluffed sandy head. Florals, citrus, and caramel abound in the nose. Tastes of caramel malts, toffee, candied fruits, and florals. Nice balance of bitters to sweet and fits the strong ale style nicely.

Draft: Immensely dark brown with a thick brown head. Nose is ripe with bourbon and nothing else. Creamy mouthful eases off the bourbon a bit; some of the chocolate and roastiness comes though. Still plenty of the bourbon shines through. Detracts from the brew, imho.
