Tröegs Nugget Nectar - 12 oz cans

God, please let this beer come out before January 10th! I'm heading back to Indiana from Jersey on that date, and Indiana doesn't get Troegs!

 

Hit last year Jan 26. Didn't even hit PA before Jan 10, I believe.

 

One of my all time favorite beers from Troegs! Afraid I won't be getting any this year though.

I just don't understand the whole relabeling thing going on right now with all of the breweries! Most of them, like Troegs, are not choosing a better looking "theme". This just looks horrible, very unfortunate.

 

Dammit!

 

Hate the cans, love the beer.

 

Art is fine. Liked the older version too. 16 oz was nice, but 12 is fine. Now, I'm not trying to start a typical "last year's was..." but I won't be searching this one out this year. Last year seemed a little thinner in mouthfeel, and less resiny than prior years.

 

NN should be pounder 6-packs only.

 

I can't wait for this. One of my favorite red ales for certain, and I'm all for cans!

 

Probably the only new Treog's design that doesn't stand up to the original, but that's not to say it's a bad design. I like it, but the original orange standout bottle has been burned in my mind since I began buying cases at 21.

 

Are you driving back to Indiana? Maybe you could pick up some in PA on the ride back?

Cheers!

 

I was less than impressed when I first saw the new labels online. But after actually seeing them up close a few times, I'm even more puzzled by this re-brand. They are now some of the softest, nondescript labels on the shelf. Anywho, that being said, it won't have any affect on the amount of Nugget Nectar I drink.

 

I miss the orange can, it stood out. The thing that I'm not so keen on is the change from the 16oz can last year. Maybe its me but I love the 16oz can. Still a beer I'll seek regardless, good beer is good beer.

 

Yeah, I'm just not getting it at all! The old branding was stylish and artistic, this is just plain and bland. It won't stop me from buying their beer, however I don't think it's going to grab the eye of someone not familiar with their beer.
I liked last year's can design and the "can shortage" must have something to do with the 12 oz. can format.

 

To me, 12 oz cans are the best packaging option. It's what's inside the can that counts and NN is world class in my book.

 

I loved the old cans, the new ones are ok.
I am a huge NN fan. I would drink a sh*tload of beer if they sold it in this

 

Last years 16 oz cans were fantastic.
One of my favorite cans.
My vote is still out on the new design

 

There are 16oz versions of this label online so maybe both will be offered.... either way a can is perfect for NN.

 

Can't wait! I actually love the redesigned labels and an added bonus is the clearer info they include about the beer on them. Also, while they switched to the enjoy by date vs. the bottling date, the dates are now way easier to read.

Their old labels were okay but seeing them year after year makes these new labels stand out a little more to me.

 

I am 100% with you there.

Cheers!
