Rogue Hazelnut Brown Nectar.


I would have to say this is one of the better nut brown ales I've tried. Most nut browns are just weak variations of a brown ale. This one had a robust, full body with a smoothness that most brown ales lack (Newcastle, I'm looking at you.). The creaminess brought in some sweetness to help support the noticeably nutty tones. In the end, however, it's no Blackstone. But if this is a (mildly) distant second, everything else is dead last. I'd buy it again.
