Morimoto Hazelnut Signature Ale is a nutty twist to a traditional European Brown Ale, a dark brown beer with a hazelnut aroma, a rich nutty flavor and a smooth malty finish. It was inspired by home brewer Chris Studach, a friend of Rogue's resident wizard John Maier and renamed in honor of the Food Network' "Iron Chef" in 2003. Hazelnut Brown Nectar is a blend of Great Western 2-row Pale, Munich, Hugh Baird Brown, Crystal 80 and Crystal 135, Carastan, and Beeston Pale Chocolate malts; hazelnut extract; Perle and Saaz hops.
