ST. JOHN, NB – Moosehead Brewery is set to release Moosehead Cask Ale this week, making it the largest Canadian brewery in modern times to release a cask-conditioned ale.
Crafted by Mark Dobson, a brewer at Moosehead who previously worked for 16 years at Tetley Brewery in the UK, Moosehead Cask Ale is described in a Telegraph-Journal article as “deep-flavoured, hoppy, bitter and creamy.”
Following an invitation-only preview tasting at the brewery last week, Moosehead Cask Ale will be officially launched this coming Thursday, October 14th at the Saint John Ale House, where it will be available exclusively for now.

- Greg C. is drinking a Northern Nectar - Across the Nation by Central City Brewers + Distillers at King & DufferinHoney notes are surprisingly strong, but also not overly sweet thanks to the well-deployed hops giving balance. Quite well done, really.
- Greg C. is drinking a Me Ol' Trout - Across the Nation by Central City Brewers + Distillers at King & DufferinLeans more towards a golden ale than cream ale, at least to my palate. But style nitpicks aside, it’s a clean & well-balanced beer.
- Greg C. is drinking a South of Nowhere by MERIT Brewing at Cask Days 2018Late entry from Cask Days where I ended with an Impy as always. Made a good choice with this one - great flavour, not much boozy heat.
- Greg C. is drinking an Uninvisible by Thin Man Brewery at Cask Days 2018Well constructed wild ale with a nice hit of Meyer lemon. Elegant, and not well suited to a festival honestly. Needs more devoted attention.
- Greg C. is drinking a Gin Gimlet by Cascade Brewing Company (USA) at Cask Days 2018Phenomenal aroma of lime sherbet and juniper. Flavour is less intense but more complex. Lingering lime, odd & welcome hint of ginger.
