A cloudy brown beer with moderate head. Aroma of roasted malt. Taste was very smooth & nutty with a creamy mouthfeel. In fact I think this is the most nut flavored beer I have had. It does almost have a Whopper candy sort of taste as quoted from the Beer Guide by RateBeer-but not in an overpowering way, just enough.

From the Bottle at Tom’s Ultimate Glasgow Tasting, Blackfriars 01/12/2007 Chocolate aroma. Amber red coloured and fruity with a crisp and slightly dry chocolaty finish.

Garnished with the usual whimsical Rogue label, I was greeted with a most definitely brown pour mated with a slightly less brown four-fingered head, which sadly knew nothing about lacing. Aroma was quite discrete, giving away not much of anything, at least to my untalented nose. Taste was quite different, being that of a "good brown ale". The mouthfeel was smooth, and there at the end, the hazlenuttiness(?) appeared. Surely a grand aftertaste. Certainly worth another visit.

Tap at Ashley’s. Poured a clear brown with a dark off-white head. Nutty and malty, definitely an undertone of hazelnut. THe flavor began sweet with hazelnut notes and moved to more malty finish.

This Rogue beauty is really a Brown Ale, meaning that the taste is well, brown. The Hazelnut carries over to every aspect of this Rogue Nation Creation. HBN pours a smooth, nut brown color that produces a nice, tan tinged head. The multitude of malts creates a beautiful delicate flavor that showcases the hazelnut in a way that a Cafe would add the flavoring to a cup of joe. Only setback is the slimmed down body, but in all an excellent example of the style.

Nice brown pour. Tan head. Head fades kinda quickly. Smell is definitely nutty, kinda smells like coffee. Subtle scent, not overpowering. Sweet. You can definitely taste the hazelnut immediately. It’s got flavor but not an overwhelming amount. Rogue kept it simple with this one....simple but well done. Mouthfeel is smooth. First thing I thought of when I tasted it....very very smooth.

Draught at The Local Taphouse, Sydney. Pours dark brown with a creamy light brown head. Aroma and flavour is toasted malt, hazelnut, coffee and more nuts. Low in bitterness and a smooth, nutty finish. Very nice brown ale.
