Description
Defying the odds isn’t just what we do, it’s a part of our DNA. We were founded by a woman in 1867. Lived through two wars. Survived a fire. Overcame the Halifax Explosion. Competed as an independent company against breweries 100 times our size. We haven’t just survived - we’ve thrived. And while others back down, we outlast. Moosehead Breweries Limited is the last major brewery in Canada still owned by Canadians. The brewery is located in Saint John, New Brunswick and operates with values that have been safely guarded by the same family for 148 years. Despite obstacles – devastating fires, Prohibition, the Great Depression, two world wars, obstructive trade barriers, and bruising competition from breweries 100 times its size – Moosehead is one of the most durable and long lasting companies in Canada. Ultimately it has been the Oland family’s passion for beer that has enabled them to be successful over the long term. With their product on beer shelves from the Maritimes to B.C., and its flagship Moosehead Lager shipped to approximately 350 distributors in the U.S.; Moosehead has become an iconic mainstay in North America’s beer industry

Dry Ice from Moosehead Breweries

4.1/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 5 Flavor 4 Texture 2 Overall 4.5
Purchased a 12-pack at the NSLC on my trip to Nova Scotia. Pours a clean golden colour with a frothy white head, decent retention and nice lacing. Smooth malt nose with hints of goat milk soap and sweetness. Malty tasting as well with some decent grain in the finish. The mouthfeel is where this is not very pleasant and the lingering aftertaste. Alcohol is well-hidden and malt does not feel too fake overall.

Alpine Max 6.0 from Moosehead Breweries

3.2/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 3 Flavor 4 Texture 2 Overall 3
Purchased at the NB Liquor in a can. Pours a clear pale yellow colour with a frothy white head, decent retention and lacing. Corn aromas with some hay and light alcohol. The taste has lots of corn and its sweetness lingering. Not much of a finish. Not much of a beer. Easy to drink for a 6% ABV as not much offensive, but the corn.

Boundary Ale from Moosehead Breweries

6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 4 Overall 6
Bouteille: Deep golden, almost clear, stable off-white foamy layer; moderate dry bitter (herbal to medical) aroma, traces of sweetish malt only in the background; moderate dry bitter flavour, quite light bodied, tart MF; relatively short and slin bitter-herbal finish. Unspectacular, not well balanced…

Piwo radler ale z 3 roznych sokow, ogolnie podobna mieszanka co zwyklej cytrynowej limoniady, piana dosc spora jak na radlera, choc blyskawicznie opada. Kolor zoltawo bialawy z refleksem rozowym Owocowe slodkie i delikatnie. Najlepszy efekt to w ten upalny dzien dobrze gasi pragnienie
