Commercial Description:
Squeeze those hops for all they’re worth and prepare to pucker up: Tröegs’ newest single batch brew, Nugget Nectar Ale, will take hopheads to nirvana with a heady collection of Nugget, Warrior and Tomahawk hops. Starting with the same base ingredients of our flagship HopBack Amber Ale, Nugget Nectar intensifies the malt and hop flavors to create an explosive hop experience.

An orange beer with a thick white head. The aroma is lovely hoppy and grassy. While the flavor is a dry hoppy and grassy on a malt and caramel background. The after taste is good with lots of hops, but I find the flavor in general a bit light, and also the body a bit light inspite of the 7.5% ABV.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a clear, amber golden with a handsome, creamy, white head. Fresh, citrusy nose. Surprisingly light body - almost a bit watery. Somewhat perfumy aroma hops. Dry, hoppy finish. Quite lovely. 220406

Bright amber colour. Huge nose - so much hop, fairly grassy with a hint of blackberry. Big blackberry/raspberry character. Firm woodiness. Sweeter towards the finish, with yet more blackberry. Fun stuff - I like the balance.

(1/29/08, 12oz bottle, thanks kmweaver) Crystal clear amber body topped by small beige head that leaves nice lacing. Aroma is moderately sweet, juicy grapefruit/orange, pine, pineapple, mango. Taste is moderately sweet, grapefruit, pine/pineapple, some caramel. Smooth medium body, fairly easy to drink despite the ABV. (9/4/7/4/15)

(2/4/06, draft) Minimal off-white head atop clear golden body. Aroma is moderately sweet, pineapple, some pine, caramel, grapefruit. Taste is moderately sweet, pineapple, some pine, light grapefruit. Medium body with some resin and light acidity. Nice hop burp. (8/3/7/4/15)
