The Spruce Moose is a 6.2% American Pale Ale featuring an addition of more than 60 kilograms of hand-harvested spruce tips. This deep copper-coloured ale features a clean, light malt character complemented by zesty, piney hops. History & Style Beau’s Pro-Am series is a salute to homebrewers, true innovators of our craft: beers designed by amateur brewers, brewed at Beau’s. The Spruce Moose was brewed with Patrick Boisvenue, winner of the 2012 Members of Barleyment Beau’s Oktoberfest Homebrew Competition. No stranger to the Beau’s brewhouse, Patrick also collaborated with Beau’s to create the award-winning Burnt Rock Vanilla Porter. Tasting Notes A walk in the woods is subtly suggested in the aroma and flavour of this summer-suited ale. The Spruce Moose showcases a mellow maltiness and moderate hop bitterness, nuanced with additional aromas of citrus including grapefruit.

    Had a pint at Atomic Rooster, Ottawa. Pours very little frothy light brownish cap. Has a hazy, light coppery appearance. Mild aromas of roasted malts, light citrus and floral hops as well. Has some nice fruity flavours, more like tropical fruits. Some hints of cinnamon comes through at one point. Lively carbonation. Sweet bitterness on the palate. Pretty good stuff and easy to drink.

    On tap at the Atomic Rooster. Pours a cloudy amber colour with a warm cap, decent retention and a little lace. Malty nose with lots of yeast, but mostly fruit character, like hints of strawberries. The mouthfeel has a light dryness to it. Beautiful fruity malt flavours (oranges, mangos) with mild hops that are present, slightly giving some bitterness in the finish, but not much lingering. Not smelling or tasting the spruce tips. For those who like their APAs on the fruity malt side instead of hoppy.
