My son gave me a bottle of Moosedrool last night. It's brewed in Montana I believe. First time I had it. Dark, but very well balanced. Very good flavor.

We got a couple of Founder brews, double trouble and old curmudgeon ale, plus a big bottle of something I can't remember the name of and roomservice took the bottle (although I would have loved to take it home with me for my collection but......). Anywho, the big bottle was nice and carried off it's high alcohol content (9.5%) well but the founders brews are too high in the alcohol content (9.4%) and have an unpleasant alcohole taste, well some might like that. However they are all competent brews but the founders need to take the alcohol down to 7.5%, to bring out the flavours of the beer. If I wanted to taste alcohol I would drink spirits but I find that mixing the founders stuff with Sam Adams boston ale, produces a very nice drink. Sam Adams being a very nice beer but not having quite the ale taste and needs a little something extra. Whack in a bit of founders and you have a nicely balance ale at 7-8% alcohol. Well that's my thoughts, buy a box of Sam Adams and a 4 pack of founders and then mix them together, perhaps not quite 1-1 but more at 2-1 or try it until you get to a brew that you're happy with. Lastly I have to apologize to the US nation for assuming that you nothing about beer, which I thought kinda strange, seeing you have had immigrants from all over the world, in fact Sam Adams Boston lager is probably one of the worlds great semi-mainstream beers for those who like a good, heavier beer. Ohh and at the ballgame today they had a good selection of beers available as well, better than the stuff they sell at Oz sporting events and yes the hot dogs where good too.
