Tröegs Nugget Nectar 2022 release

I was pleasantly surprised. Yeah the six packs were around $20. I was also happy to get a four pack of 16 oz Two Hearted for $8.99 last weekend at a local store.

 

Been seeing a lot of positive reviews on social media of Double NN.

On a side note - had a can of NN again last night and it was great. Seems like maybe it’s a canning issue? The bottles seems to get the best reviews.

 

Every single day I find another reason to hate Pennsylvania

 

Know you’re joking (somewhat), but this is one of the only “bad” things about PA IMO. We have it pretty good here - beer (not price of course lol), food, scenery, 4 seasons, etc. Off topic, but just rambling on lol.

 

Ha ha yes no place is perfect but when it comes to some of our prices (beer, gas, etc.) we are not doing too well.

 

Lol can’t forget the gas.

 

Well, I do not know where you are sitting here but I will 'trade' paying those prices over the Jersey income and municipal taxes any day.

Cheers!

 

Oh yeah there is always a tradeoff somewhere.

 

Strongly agree with this guy.

If you've been on BA for 10 years go revist a handful of shelfies you rated when you first joined. I do 180s on these beers for better or worse all the time when I revisit. Tastes change and the power of persuasion is pretty strong.

 

Also, double nugget popping up in Pittsburgh area yesterday and today. Yet to snag it yet but its not as good as 2009.

 

I really want to agree with you, but then I think about another beer I buy more than one six-pack of each year when it comes out: Sierra Nevada Celebration. Celebration does differ from year to year, of course, depending on the hop crop, but it always tastes very consistent to me across six-packs with different brewing dates; Nugget Nectar does not. I think the complaints on these NN threads every year are on to something. It's a real mystery, though, as to why Troegs seems to have a problem with this one beer. I used to buy Hop Knife each fall and never thought it tasted off-- every year it tasted just like I remembered.

 

I guess I know where I am going tomorrow. Thanks

 

My bottle vs can comparison for those interested:

I'm going to be on the lookout for the Double, will be neat to see how it stacks up against the regular versions.

 

I wasn't terribly ISO of the double but was extremely pleased with it after trying it just now.

 

That is how I was with Double Blizzard, wasn't looking for it but came across it and tried it, glad that I did.

Which version do you prefer?

 

This seems to be a consensus in WBAYDN as well. I’ve seen several very positive reactions to it. I’m not sure if it will show up in NJ though.

 

based on what I just tasted the double. But its also Friday and my first beer of the week so doesn't that one always taste best? I can report back in the future when I visit it a few more times.

 

Ha ha yes. Yeah keep me posted, would like to hear your thoughts. I'm going to be on the lookout for this also.
