Mar 23, 2003 Not much aroma or head. Nice brown color and not as sweet as I thought it would be. Toasted/Roasted flavor.

Oct 27, 2006 I just moved into Portland so I’m having my fair mix of Rogue brews. The only other Rogue I have had before moving was their Dead Guy Ale... I am thoroughly impressed with both of them. This beer had a dark amber/brown color, slightly transparent. The guy right next to me was smoking at the bar I couldn’t get a good sniff because my nose was all crazy. Head was a little thin but a bright contrast white compared to the beer. Taste of course had hazelnut but there was another sweetness in there, almost like cramel or toffee. Very sweet! Extremely smooth and nothing but joy as I drank the beer.

May 7, 2008 Pured a clear brown color with a small off white head. Aroma is of nuts chocolate, cream and roasted malts. I cant describe the flavor anymore than by saying liquid butterfingers. Delicious

Sep 28, 2008 650ml bottle - LCBO. Appearance: Ruby red with a yellowing - off white head, quite frothy. Aroma: Yes - Hazelnuts, yeast, chocolate. Flavour: Malty - nutty, some slight vanilla too. Interesting. Somewhat dry finish. As it warms up I can taste the hazelnut more and more. Delicious.

Mar 26, 2005 Hazelnut extract nose that is extremely overpowering. Sweet almost cloying on the palate. Roasted malts clash with the extract, almost a pvc type flavor at the end. Vanilla and hazelnut finish overly sweet.

Nov 8, 2001 Well balanced and flavorful brown ale. The hazelnut flavor provides just enough kick to make this beer stand well by itself.

Jul 7, 2003 Updated: Apr 24, 2005Dark brown body with a diminishing head. Nutty malt aroma, light hops (herbs?), and moderate yeastiness (dough). Sweetness throughout with a moderately bitter finish. Oily to creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. A little unbalanced to the sweet side. Peppery saaz hops are detectable and do a good job of keeping the hazelnut sweetness under control.
Rerate 8/14/03. Better than I originally gave it credit for (4.1). Starting a little warmer (50 degrees F)than I’m sure I had it last time, I noticed just how svelt this brew is. Smooth, nutty, lightly tingling carbonation (maybe a little too much so), a good creamy mouthfeel, delicious chocolate malt, nice spicey Saaz kick without being overly hoppy. The list goes on and on. Using Saaz and Perle hops in this brew was absolutely genious, IMHO.
