Nice Kettle!  So how does the Trout Slayer compare to the Moose Drool?

It's a lighter wheat ale , my favorite of the regular lineup , I went in for an orange ale I'd heard about but it was tapped out :(

A quick clean up

A quarter size ping in the bowl and a nickel sized mar on the lid

 
The front of the ash catcher is gone so the sellers  dad many years ago added the old hinge to repair it , theres a strange piece of metal on the front leg its embedded into the leg , looks like the spout from a canister of salt , I assume part of the original triangle attachment , but I don't know



Beefy axel and the grill grates are both 1/4 material



Both tires have the tread looks like they've just pulled apart at the seam both have a straight line across the width with fibers showing across the break
