I also received a sampler of Beers of the World from my parents over Christmas. One of the conditions of these tastings is that I do it as the first beer of the evening so my palette is clean, but tonight I didn't do that.
After meeting Teresa at a local pub and having a couple Loose Cannons I came home to crack open the Moosehead Lager that was included in my Beers of the World sampler my parents had given me for Christmas.
What I expected: An import-like semi-Heineken with a lot of metallic semi-bitter flavor that shares the almost-skunky lineage of beers in green bottles.
What I got: A very smooth, likeable beer with a hoppy, green almost grassy start to the flavor but a very decent finish that yearns for the next swallow.
Beer: Moosehead Lager
Brewery: Moosehead Breweries Limited, Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada.
That's all that's on the label, folks. No idea on ABV unless I Google (which yields a 5.00% ABV).
