Tröegs Unleashes Double Nugget NectarPENNSYVANIA STATE - Hold onto your hop cones, craft beer lovers! Tröegs Independent Brewing has just announced the release of Double Nugget Nectar, a bolder, bigger, and even more intensely hopped version of their iconic Imperial Amber Ale, Nugget Nectar. This highly anticipated brew promises to deliver double the hop-forward goodness that Nugget Nectar fans crave, making it a must-try for any serious hophead.


Double the Nugget, Double the Flavor


Double Nugget Nectar takes the essence of the original Nugget Nectar and amplifies it to eleven. During a brainstorming session, tröegs' brewmaster and co-founding brother, John Trogner, explains that the idea stemmed from a simple yet brilliant suggestion: "Let's take Nugget and double it." And double it they did. This Double Imperial Amber Ale centers around Simcoe hops, a key ingredient in the original, to deliver an explosion of apricot, peach rings, and bright citrus notes. Azacca hops contribute hints of juicy orchard fruits, while Columbus and Nugget hops provide a grounding layer of dank pine, creating a complex and captivating hop profile.

A Balancing Act of Malt and Hops

But Double Nugget Nectar isn't just about hops. Tröegs carefully selected a blend of Munich, Pilsner, and Vienna malts to balance the assertive hop bill. This combination lends a bready sweetness and contributes to the beer's deep amber-orange hue. The addition of flaked oats creates a silky texture and smooth mouthfeel, making this 9.5% ABV behemoth surprisingly drinkable. "Bringing this beer to life proved to be a fun balancing act," says Trogner.

Where to Find This Limited Release

Double Nugget Nectar is available on draft and in limited 16-ounce cans. It is available at the Tröegs Brewery in Hershey, PA, and throughout its entire distribution footprint. For those eager to get an early taste, Tröegs is also featuring Double Nugget Nectar at select "21 Years of Nugget Nectar" events currently being held in markets where its beer is sold. Check your local craft beer bars and retailers for availability.

The Verdict:

Double Nugget Nectar is a worthy successor to the original and a testament to Tröegs' brewing prowess. It's a big, bold, and beautifully balanced beer that will please longtime Nugget Nectar fans and newcomers alike. Don't miss your chance to experience this limited release – it's a hop lover's dream come true.
