Rogue HazelNut Brown Nectar

Pours dark red-brown with a yellow head. Aroma is nuts, honey, and toast. Nice initial sugary sweetness with a strong nutty flavor on the finish. Not a huge fan of the nutty flavor, but it’s an ok beer overall.

Pours a medium rust colored brown with an inch of tan head. Very nutty aroma, almost a glazed sweetness with some lightly roasted notes. Initial taste is a very satisfying sweet nutty flavor. Flavor almost subsides in the middle to a few dry hops but then picks up with some hints of honey to a lingering tangy sweetness that is really nice. Body is smooth and refreshing for a brown.

Draft in a smoky bar: It had a dreadful smell of toejam and ass. Clear ruby colored with no head.Tastes of dirt, mold, moss, bark, and pretzels. Bready with a black cherry tang that doesn’t fit well with the earthly qualities. Fascinating melon rind finish. Interesting novelty beer and skillfully crafted, but I doubt I drink it again.

dark in color. sweet scent. rosated malt flavor with sweetness. overall a good brown.

Bottle at Chaucer’s Pub- Dark deep brown letting in some light. Head is a frothy beige foam. Nose of toasty malts, and as you would expect, hazelnuts, like nutella, some chocolate, with a fair amount of fresh hops blasting up. Nice toffee and hazelnut flavours with sweet cocoa and a good dose of bittering hops to balance the act out. Finishes much like the flavour, just a bit thinner than I expected. Good stuff.

On Tap. Incredible Ale. My new favorite brown ale. Light head, great aroma, not a strong hazelnut scent. Sweet finish. very smooth taste.

Pours dark copper brown with a lingering 2 finger beige foamy head. Nose is all sweet hazlenut. First sip is all hazelnit then roasted cocoa and just a slight dry hop finish. Very good brown ale. Would like to see a little more complexity.

This is one of my favorite brown ales. Aroma is excelent hazelnut and leads to nuts and malt flavor with a clean finish. Beautiful brown color and perfect carbonation. 22oz. bottle
