Valemount 20/7 2018. 35,5 cl can from BC Liquor in Valemount. Weird photo of Two Mooses with grimes made out to drag a wagon.
Pours dark brown with medium-sized light tan head. Settles as 1 cm thick layer of foam crawling up the side of the glass. Substantial lacing.
Aroma is intensely sweet and roasted. Sweet brown sugar, roasted dark malts. Light smoke. Nutty notes.
Light carbonation. Thin, watery, lively texture.
Flavor has strong sweetness followed by a medium strong bitterness. Aftertaste is medium bitter. Lingers for a short while.
Nice sweet Brown Ale with a bitter twist.

355ml can, the summer seasonal in Three Range's mixed-pack, and a tribute to the Great Canadian Moose!
This beer pours a clear, dark red-brick amber colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy tan head, which leaves some sparsely strewn amoebic lace around the glass as it lazily settles.
It smells of bready and lightly roasted caramel malt, bittersweet cocoa, some muddled earthy nuttiness, a hint of day-old coffee, and gentle leafy, weedy, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is grainy and doughy caramel malt, a touch of free-agent char, thin chocolate syrup, lightly creamed coffee, more plain bar-top nuts, and a consistently understated leafy, earthy, and sort of musty hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly low-key in its 'wait, where did it go' frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and mostly smooth, just a wee clamminess arising as things warm up a tad. It finishes off-dry, the bready caramel malt starting to shed the majority of its roasted co-stars.
Overall, not a bad brown ale, with enough going on to keep one's attention for at least a round or two, but they surely could have hopped it up a bit more in pursuit of such. Anyways, I've never heard of the titular name for a moose - it must be a provincialism, even though they're just on the other side of our shared border.
