The 50 States of Beer - Montana

Montana

Big Sky Brewing Company - Missoula, MT
Best Beer:

Scape Goat Pale Ale

Moose Drool is a damn good beer, so get off my back. I just think Goat is the best in the Big Sky line.

Browns, to me, can be perfected. Like Empyrean's 3rd Stone, that is top of the line, so to me all other nut browns have to match up to it. Where as with Pale Ales, either they all are on the same level to me (well, all good ones) or I just haven't found my top Pale Ale yet.

With that being said, Scape Goat is a very good beer. I like it a lot better than the Big Sky IPA, which I find a little harsh.

I used to drink a good amount of Big Sky beers, but lately I have been out of the Pale Ale game. But writing this makes me thirsty for a Goat. Also, I was under the impression that Big Sky was a major brewery, but the Wikipedia page has hardly anything on it. What's that all about?
