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.

Poured from a 22oz. bottle into a pint glass. The color is a clear, deep amber color with a very foamy white head with some really nice lacing. The smell is very hoppy, smelly like fresh cut grass the floral hop flavor is very present. Very good flavor. The taste is brimming with hops and some really nice citrus feel to go along. Is very tart but sweet with some with nice bitterness to even out the fruit flavor. The feel of this beer is like an IPA even though it is a amber ale. It is full of flavor and feel smooth going down with just a slight aftertaste.

This is an amazing beer...when fresh...the aroma jumps out as soon as the bottle is cracked...hops are intense and made almost juicy by the significant malt backbone...I want more..............................................

Bottle. Nice beer i guess this would be somewhere in between an IPA and an Imperial IPA. Great hoppy IPA.

Bottle->shaker: Pours an average, rocky, off-white head atop a sparkling amber body. Aroma is nutty with flowers and perfume and some banana. The body is medium, texture creamy and alcoholic, with the finish being bitter. The flavor is moderately sweet and bitter. Another great hoppy brew.

Decent IPA. Could be hoppier but overall it’s a smooth beer and I’d drink it again.

Bomber compliments of DrBayern (thanks Matt), poured a lovely orange hue, aroma evident of hops and grapefruits. Flavour much the same, excellent beer.
