Rogue HazelNut Brown Nectar

Bottle. Rogue Hazelnut Brown Nectar has a suprisingly mild nut taste. Very smooth accross the palate The best part in my opinion was the nutty aroma. Great beer but i wouldn’t go to any great lengths to get my hands on it.

Bottle. Brown with pale brown head quickly disappearing. Matly aroma, bread and nutts. Taste very malty maybe some nuts. Another anonymus brown ale. I don´t quite understand the high ratings. I prefer Jackie Brown.

On tap at Yard House Brea; remember having this a couple years ago and not liking it; that has definitely changed. Aroma of nuts, chocolate, caramel and butter. Flavor was the same; sweet with buttery nuts. Good on the palate. Nice color. Very good for the style.

Pours a real nice brown color with an atractive thick and tan pillowy head. Smells of rich roasted malts, some nuts and nice chocolate. The taste is much of the same. The roasted malts are very prevalent, coupled with chocolate malts and a real nice nutty flavor. The body is just a little too light., but not bad. The finish is hoppy, yet smooth. It’s not quite as good as I remember it, yet I’m surprised I still like it as much as I do.

Draught at The Flying Saucer in Nashville. Poured a dark mahogany color with three fingers of off white head. Aroma is of sweet malt with a faint nut aroma. Flavor is very sweet with a strong hazelnut tone and some bitter chocolate. Too sweet to drink more than one, but overall a solid beer.

22oz bottle thanks to NoworkNJ. Pours clearish brown/red with a fizzy offwhite head, no lace. Smells malty and sweet with a sort of wet dog, nut flavor. Tastes sweet nutty and chocolatey. Very tasty but not sickly sweet or nutty. Medium body, semi-dry, good carbonation.

not usually a brown ale drinker or a fan of nut flavors in beer, i chose rogue’s hazelnut brown nectar on the high recommendation of my friend seth haines. immediately i notice that the ale pours very brown, cut through with deep-purplish shards of light rather than the redder, cherry cola appearance i usually notice in "brown ales." the aroma screams hazelnuts and dry, dry piecrust filling. am i drinking this or slicing into it? should i drink this alone or over vanilla bean ice cream or paired with a rich cup of coffee? before tasting this beer, it looks and smells too big to stand alone - it may need something else to help carry the burden. the first sip is all hazelnuts - huge and chattering between my teeth like squirrels swirling tree trunks in sport. second sip, and on, reveals deeper levels of sweetened chocolaty malts, coupled up and peppered with lightly spiced hops. this is an extremely large, but well balanced ale. too rich for occasional drinking, but perfect for a special occasion or celebratory evening with friends: which is exactly how i prefer most of rogue’s beers.
