It's brown, it's named after a large North American ungulate, and its name suggests oral incontinence. Ah, we market product with our minds, but we drink beer with our mouths! Which is why this American brown ale is your new favorite session beer. Dense layers of malt, caramel, baking chocolate, and a hint of light-roast coffee give way to reveal a hop character you'll be surprised to find if you're used to drinking English brown ale. The finish is complex but balanced, and the gravity is not so high as to keep you from having another.

Delicious Review by Boognish

Followed recipe exactly and got exactly what I was promised. A nice malty brew with good flavor. Bottle conditioned for 8 weeks, good carbonation and nice and clear. Will brew this again for sure. (Posted on 5/23/12)

Easy and Tastes great Review by mikol

Even though this was my first, it is hands down my new favorite. The kit made about 2 cases just as they said, now i'm down to the final six pack and ready to start brewing again! The name led me to believe it was a clone of moose drool, but the side by side comparison is like apples to oranges. The caramel flavors really come through for me with a hint of coffee and finished with slightly bitter hops. I added a little extra table sugar when bottling and I think that was a good call, it really seems to make it crisp and refreshing when poured into an ice cold glass.
The only problem is that I can't find anything close enough in the stores to enjoy while I wait for my next batch!!! !!!!! (Posted on 5/18/12)

Worth every penny Review by Big Steve

This beer is smooth and flavorful. Very light bitters counter a smooth malt. Recommend this beer to everyone. even though I thought I botched it by leaving the hops all in trough the primary fermentor the beer still came out great!!!!

Cheers!!!

Delicious and easy Review by James

This is my first specialty grain batch, and it was quite easy to accomplish. Lots of roasty notes in the brew day. I did 2 weeks in primary, 3 in secondary and let it bottle condition for 5 days before trying one. I figured it would be low on the carb and still green, but it was quite a surprize. It's been about a month now, and most of it is gone between friends and myself. It is getting better as the weeks progress, and I will definately be brewing this one again.

A very nice balanced beer, light coffee and cocoa flavors, a nice head. (Posted on 5/8/12)

Caribou Slobber is a great beer and I love NB for making it so easy. Kits like this are the reason I enjoy brewing. It's very fulfilling for a friend to drink one and comment “This is better than any beer you can buy”. (Posted on 5/4/12)
