My tastebuds were obliterated by Chuck Norris

 

Tonight we had the Hazelnut Brown Nectar by Rogue (Oregon).  My tastebuds were obliterated by Chuck Norris.  Or maybe it was the cold I had last week, but I didn't find much flavor in this beer.  It had honey on the nose, a decent amber color (nyah nyah, the Jockamo was prettier), a tan fluffy head, an extremely smooth flavor.  Honey and nutty overtones, the hazelnut is at the end.  Not too flavorful, but probably a good summah beeyah.  A bit thin, not creamy like a stout.  Light bodied. Not overly boozy, which is good. 

Addendum:  my fridge is acting like a douche bag and it sounds like a lawnmower, so we turned it up, so we could turn it off for a while.  Hence, the beers are TOO COLD. That might explain why this beer had less flavor at first.  Duh.  This is a beer that gets better when less chilled.

I would like to give a shout out to my Mom, my wonderful, beauteous editor-in-chief. 

 

Yeah, you do.
