Recipes

Big Sky Brewing Company: Moose Drool clone
This is the beer that put Montana craft beer on the map shortly after Big Sky opened in 1995. Moose Drool has taken home many medals for its drinkability, with subtle coffee and cocoa notes balanced with a pleasant bitterness.
Cherokee Nation (American Indian Brown Ale)
According to recipe author Gordon Strong, “This is a brown IPA, which is my normal IPA recipe with the addition of some darker malts and using brown sugar instead of honey. It uses late hopping for bitterness and adds the darker malts during the sparge, both of which should cut down on the clash of malt/hops that can happen in hoppy darker beers.”
Cherry Brown Ale
A fun-to-brew Brown Ale with some home toasted malts and a lot of cherries!
Rogue Ales: Hazelnut Brown Nectar clone
A nutty twist to a traditional European Brown Ale. Dark brown in color with a hazelnut aroma, a rich nutty flavor and a smooth malty finish
Smoked Maple Brown Ale
“Kick Save, and a Beauty…” by Scott R. Russell I had a fairly athletic upbringing. All of my male relatives were sports fans, and I can’t remember ever not being one myself.
