Rogue HazelNut Brown Nectar

Brewed by Rogue Ales
Style: Brown Ale
Newport, Oregon USA

Dark brown but really lifeless and no hint of head anywhere. Fabulous aroma reminiscent of my grandads biscuit jar! Flavour follows which is the hazelnut but given I’m no hazelnut expert, I’ll stick with my grandad’s biscuits (rip). lacks a bit of weight and fullness or roundness. Lovely flavours and not OTT. Bonus points for Grandad memories.......

Bomber. Dark brown body with a light brown head that doesn’t stick around. Nice aroma of hazelnut, caramel, toast and herbs. Notes of flowers. The flavor is heavily sweet and lightly bitter. The sweetness drops somewhat in the finish, but the bitterness kicks up only a notch or two. Medium body with a watery texture that is a bit sticky. Lively carbonation. Distinctive brown ale with a dominant hazelnut taste. A bit over the top on sweetness for a brown ale. Still, an enjoyable, tasty beer.

Perhaps my palate isn’t refined enough to pick up the hazlenut aroma. I get coffee and dark chocolate on the nose. Ditto in the mouth with additional hints of caramel. Dry slightly bitter finish.

dark rust brown with a shortlived tan head. choclate and hazelnuts on the nose, almost like nutella, yum, this must be good:P wauw, the aromas follow through to the flavour and blends with some malty caramel sweetness, long lingering hazelnut and slight bitterness. quite dry, which makes this great.

Pours a dark almost coffee brown. A very nutty and sweet aroma. Very flavorful beer, with notes of syrup and hazelnut. The sweetness of the beer disappears quickly leaving a good slightly bitter aftertaste.

Pours a dark brown with a thin head. Huge hazelnut syrup flavor all the way through, nearly covers up any other flavor. Also some sweet malt and vanilla, the finish has a strong burnt flavor. Tastes a lot like Cracker Jacks. Not very enjoyable.

Aroma of nutella on wholemeal toast, with a tocuh of mily, sweet coffee. Lightrt mouthfeel than I was expecting, but lovely flavour of nuts, caramel and chocolate. Luckily the bitterness saves it from being snickers bar - a balanced finish.

Pours a nice amber brown color with a thick tan head which fades into a nice lacing. malty aroma of hazelnut and some vanillla. flavor is smmoth malthy hazelnut, chocolate, vanilla, nuts, and coffee. has a nice medium finish and is not too sweet. definitly the best brown I have had.
