An appropriate name for this "imperial amber". (Gotta love these new beer styles.) If flavor and aroma hops and high-gravity beer is your bag, then this is a beer to add to your list. In addition to the malty sweetness and chewy hop flavor, the beer is a very pleasant amber color. Plenty of carbonation for such a stong brew adds to the hop aroma.

On Tap at Capitol Ale house in Richmond, VA. Deliciousness. This little nugget is super dank. A real heady experience,

One of my winter favorites. I try to carry a few bottles in my checked baggage when I go to the Pacific Northwest and B.C. for my annual ski trip. The full flavour bursts with a fine balance of hops and malt.

pours clear orange with a small white head. very hoppy aroma with flowers and pine in the deep whiffs. i have to say i couldn’t remove this beer from within 4 inches of my face it smelled and tastes so good. nice balance between hops and malt. dry finish with nice hop bitterness. next year i’ll be buying two cases of this wonderful treat.

This beer is just dripping with hop character. Pours to a beautiful. bright, light amber color, with a thick, white head, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose on this beer is very fragrant with lots of zesty citus hop aromas of lemon and grape fruit. The palate is firm with some good sweet and caramel malt, paired with a nice back drop of candied citron hop flavor. Nugget Nectar finishes with more candied hop flavor up front, then ends with a zesty, pungent burst of lemon and grape fruit hop bitterness that lingers on the tongue. Impressive beer which really showcases hop aroma, flavor, and bitterness. A perfect aperitif beer.

bottle- canibus and pine tree aroma- some of the dankest beer I have ever smelled- a syruppy/sticky mouthfeel combined with tremendous hop flavor in a neatly balanced package- so drinkable, and so delicious. Damn.
