Rogue Hazel Nut Brown Nectar

Posted on 14. Nov, 2009 by Daniel Espinoza in Rogue Ales

The Hazelnut Brown Nectar from Rogue brewery out of Oregon is a 6.2% ABV brown ale. but this is Rogue so this isn’t your normal Brown Ale…

As the title suggest this Beer is brewed with hazelnuts which was inspired by home brewer Chris Studach. This is a truly amazing brown Ale, So amazing in fact that I would say the Hazelnut Brown Nectar is in my Top 5 favorite beers.

The Brown Nectar has a nice warm honey color with a nice clean 2 finger somewhat fluffy head that sticks around. you get a nice woody nutty smell with just hints of sweetness up on smelling this brown ale which is very inviting. A nice aromatic ale indeed.

Now for the taste!

Refreashing nutty taste warm hazelnut almost Bread-like flavor to it. A very flavorful beer, the Addition of Hazelnuts was a great touch it definitely completes this beer and compliments the ale in every way. its what makes this beer stand out so much… its NOT just another brown ale. The Taste comes in two waves. Again the two waves of taste only enhance the experience as the differences compliment each other so well to deliver a solid great taste.

Very High drinkability. 2 or 3 and your set.
