Product details

It's brown, it's named after a large North American ungulate, and its name suggests oral incontinence. Ah, we market products with our minds, but we drink beer with our mouths! Which is why this American brown ale is sure to be your new favorite session beer.

Hard to believe so many enticing flavors can come from one beer recipe kit. But brew up a batch of Caribou Slobber and you'll find dense, drool-worthy layers of malt, caramel, baking chocolate, and a hint of light-roast coffee give way to reveal a hop character that will surprise you 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.

Yield: 5 Gallons

One of my best

I brewed this slobber 3 or 4 times now, always the best beer I made. My buddies love it too. As I'm drinkn a glass of fresh caribou slobber out of the keg as I write this, I made a small little mistake, keep your slobber at 4 1/2 gals the taste is so much better I accidentally topped it off at 5 gal.. Still a great ale but just a little weak, and that was my fault. I will definitely make this again !!!

Good tasting beer. I only have three comments.
1. The Danstar Windsor Ale Yeast has a low attenuation, meaning it doesn't consume all or a lot of the sugars in the wart. Hence, after waiting 23 days, my F.G. went to 1.025 from a really good O.G of 1.057. The recipe O.G. was to be 1.052. I wasn't sure if the yeast had stalled or not. I have never had that happen with any beer batch and I have been brewing since 1992. I will say the yeast had a high activity for the first two days; then nothing seemed to be happening.
2. I bottled and added 4 Oz. of dry corn sugar. 3 days later one of my bottles broke due to the pressure. I immediately put the rest of the bottles in my beer refrigerator so as to lower the pressure. So, be careful with this recipe.
3. I plan to brew this beer again, but I am thinking I will pitch some Safal-05 after the Danstar Windsor Ale Yeast has had at least 3 days to work it's magic.

Caribou slobber all grain

Have brewed 2 extract batches that were great. First all grain. Turned out great as well. Original specific gravity was higher and beer color was a little darker than my extract brews. But a great beer that I will brew again.

Caribou Slobber

I bought an extract Caribou Slobber kit years ago and was not happy. It tasted flat, very little flavor! It was also around the time I was experimenting with different water profiles, pH or it could've just been oxidized from careless transferring. Fast forward a few years and I'm very pleased with the all grain Caribou Slobber! Very tasty beer, would definitely buy again!
