collegebeerguy (9), Salem, Oregon, USA does not count Apr 16, 2004 Smooth. True, genuine palate with rich flavor. Real ingredients in this baby. Not only my favorite brown ale, but my favorite of all beers. TOP NOTCH!! DeadGuyFrank (345), http://westchesterbeer.com, USA Aug 14, 2007 When you look at the Rogue Hazelnut bottle, there appears a bald intellectual looking fellow with a pretty satisfied almost smug look about him; he is almost saying to you,"Yeah, I got this great mug of hazelnut brown, come on and have some with me." I suggest you do.
A fabulous beer! This is a great example of the brown ale style with distinctive characteristics that make it a Rogue product. You can taste, and to their credit, very subtle notes of hazelnut and dryness; thoroughly enjoyable; this is a prime example, like the Chocolate Stout, Shakespeare Stout, and Dead Guy Ale, of why Rogue just might be the world’s best brewery!!! thebrownbomber (6), Walker, Michigan, USA does not count Mar 6, 2007 The hazelnut aroma is the perfect complement to the delightful chocolate/carmel/cofee flavors. Great full body with a lingering malty finish.This beer is an experience that you owe yourself. Hands down my favorite beer at the moment. mcclenw (36), Stevenson, Alabama, USA Mar 8, 2007 Pours a fantastic dark brown color. Aroma is indeed hazelnut----smells much like amaretto, very nice. Flavor is choc., nut, caramel-----just unbelievable. Nice and strong brew. Will drink this one again soon. johnson2020 (79), Canton, Michigan, USA Sep 6, 2001 Perhaps my favorite beer. Nice balance between the malt and hops. The last sip is as good as the first(perhaps better as it warms a bit).Do yourself a favor and give it a try.
