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.

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.

Bottle from Market Street Wine Shop, downtown location, Charlottesville. Pours a light copper color with a medium sized head. Understated but well balanced aroma. Taste is a nice hop profile with a sweetness balancing it at the front of the tongue. A little chewy. Nice.

12 oz bottle from a trade with franksnbeans. pours hazy orange with a medium tan head that lasts and lasts. perfect IPA appearance. aromas are a little quite but citrus hops are the main focus. flavours are nice and hoppy but the malts leave something to be desired. somewhat watery in the finish. a middle of the road IPA.

This is a delicious brew. The name is fitting. Amber color. Great hop aroma. Lots of hop, grapefruit flavor.

smells very citrusy and has a nice balance of hop and malt flavors.......after a bit though the hop flavors tend to fade a bit and loses the hop punch that I love in an ipa.......though I have to say for an east coast ipa......goood stuff
