Narrative:

During taxi out in mso we were cleared to gtf as follows. Cleared to FL190 to climb via mso VOR 291 degree right to 9000' then via left turn direct to mso VOR cross mso VOR at 11000'. This follows almost identically the procedure on our commercial chart 10-10D at mso for ry 29 departure, which we had just briefed. The procedure calls for crossing the VOR at or above the MEA which in our case was 11000' for V187. We proceeded to use the 11000' as a minimum crossing altitude on our way to our 'cleared to' altitude of FL190. ATC was upset to learn we were over the VOR climbing through 15300' on our way to FL190.

Title: ACR LGT ALT DEVIATION OVERSHOT DURING DEP CLIMB FROM MSO.

Narrative: DURING TAXI OUT IN MSO WE WERE CLRED TO GTF AS FOLLOWS. CLRED TO FL190 TO CLB VIA MSO VOR 291 DEG R TO 9000' THEN VIA L TURN DIRECT TO MSO VOR CROSS MSO VOR AT 11000'. THIS FOLLOWS ALMOST IDENTICALLY THE PROC ON OUR COMMERCIAL CHART 10-10D AT MSO FOR RY 29 DEP, WHICH WE HAD JUST BRIEFED. THE PROC CALLS FOR XING THE VOR AT OR ABOVE THE MEA WHICH IN OUR CASE WAS 11000' FOR V187. WE PROCEEDED TO USE THE 11000' AS A MINIMUM XING ALT ON OUR WAY TO OUR 'CLRED TO' ALT OF FL190. ATC WAS UPSET TO LEARN WE WERE OVER THE VOR CLBING THROUGH 15300' ON OUR WAY TO FL190.
