of Mooseheads and Piggy heads: a regular guy beer review
(pot by Gary Rith)
Needed to get a gift for the dogsitter so I happened upon Moosehead and hadn't tried it in awhile so I got some for the sitter and some for me!!!! You could say 'why does he need a beer from Canada, eh?' BUT I LOVE ALL things Canada, and I find courtesy of wiki that they are sort of the last Canadian owned brewery and also the oldest Canadian brewery, plus CM is from New Brunswick, so I had to try Moosehead again. (CM would pronounce it ever so sweetly as "agaaan" in her particular version of the cute Canadian accent)
It was, last time I tried it, 3 something bucks a six pack, but now twice that, and it is a quite good beer for its type of lager. Plenty of suds and foam, so I am happy, especially since it also has a fetching moose upon the label.
We'll give it a rollicking 8 of ten stars because we love Canada and moose are cute.

Moose on the next pottery design?
The Moose is Loose!
Excellent stuff, Moosehead.
I actually grew up in the town where it is produced, although no one there drank it. They're also the brewery that produces the Harp you get down there. It's a funny old world.
I practically grew up on Moosehead and Molson. Yessiree!
Alpine's, the only way to go, baby.
Funny, my youngest son's school mascot is the moose!
Now I'm thirsty!!
As Homer would say, "Mmmmmmmm....BEER!"
Moosehead Beer is great, good stuff.
Love the banner head photo with the doggie freckles.
Yes, yes, a "little package" made it and it wasn't so little after all. Thank you!!
OK. Now, I have to purchase and try it. Gary gave it an 8 out of 10 thumbs review -- so, FW has to go there and partake.
It's even yummier out of a "Rith" original mug, though, eh?
"Rith Mugs" Not just with breakfast anymore. :-D
Being a good ol' Canadian kid, I find myself rather surprised to say, "I've never had Moosehead". Strange, no?
Breakfast of Champions!! lol
I think any beer would be improved by pouring it into a stein like that. Just sayin'.
Stephan Pastis really needs to come check out your stuff!!
Moosehead, Molson, Labatts. All things Canadian are highly drinkable.
