“As a co-founder of the Moosehead challenge, I often look back on that fateful Super Bowl Sunday every time I want to remember what it feels like to be abandoned by some of my closest friends. As the weaknesses of certain friendships were confirmed, the strengths of others, specifically the one between the MHC co-founders “M” and “D,” received a full-frontal exposure, and, dare I say, augmentation. God and His young Hispanic assistant visited the site of this revelation shortly thereafter.”

“Also known as the Moosehead Excuse (as in, for instance, to drink 7 beers on a Tuesday night), the Moosehead Challenge is, at its barley roots, about alcoholism. Not about blackout, tackle-a-pregnant-police-horse alcoholism, but about a steady, inspired, ‘in the zone’ type alcoholism – the kind that makes you look both ways before reaching the divide of a 5-lane freeway at midnight in the rain, or hold on with both hands when climbing a four story water tower, beer in pocket, pupils red under a white moon. Each year, at the dawn of a month otherwise reserved for lovers, I think of those who have come before me, their unflinching confidence, their brazen feats, and summon the strength of my once pink liver to revel in the crisp, shushing sound of that first flipped bottle cap. In the immortal words of Frank, ‘It’s so good. It’s so good when it hits your lips.’”

“In my mind, the Moosehead Challenge is greater than the sum of its parts — and that’s saying something, given that its parts include your buddies and a daily dose of Moosehead lager. The MHC is really a heuristic tool to make roughly 25 contiguous days of your life meaningful and memorable. And when you realize that even a Canadian beer and a silly challenge can get you there, you will have learned to live your life just a little bit better.”

The true nature of the Grand Cervidae is shrouded in mystery. Some say he is a ghost, others a myth. Still others say he resides deep within each of us…. and that every time we crack a moosehead, there he is.
