Hazelnut Nectar (of the Gods)

My sister and I picked up the Rogue Hazelnut Brown Nectar (6.2% ABV) at the liquor store after a tough day snowboarding.  We picked this solely on brand and name but as it turns out, this beer won the Gold Medal at the 2011 Great American Beer Festival.

Pours up nicely with minimal head.  Sweet nutty finish.  Delicious.  Both Husband, sister and I really enjoyed this beer but all agreed that one glass was enough.  While the flavor was extremely good, it was just a bit too sweet to have more than one.

 

On a scale of 1 to 10, this was a 9.
