Mootsy's Loudmouth Soup
No-Li Brewhouse

Northern Lights brews this exclusively for Mootsy's, a downtown Spokane bar that doubles as a venue for local bands, usually with a punkish slant. The tap handle is very cool. It's made to look like a soup can, with the label on the can very reminiscent of a Campbell's can.

This came colored a slightly dark, clear gold color, with a moderate white head that dropped fast. There was a very slight amount of lace on the insides of the glass.

The smell was rather weak. A bit of mildly sweet malt, and that was it. Not offensive smelling, but not much going on, either.

The taste was much like the smell. This is just a mildly sweet malty tasting beer. Not really a bad beer, just pretty bland.

This is rather thin. Not as thin as some macro lagers I've had, but it's definitely a very light bodied amber.

This isn't a beer geek's beer by any stretch of the imagination, but it's an alternative to macro swill if you are planning on hanging around at Mootsy's for a while to watch the bands. It's also rather cheap, at $2.50 per pint.
