If nothing else, 2017’s beer scene is already off to a great start, with Tröegs Independent Brewing Co. releasing its first batch of Nugget Nectar of the new year.

Made with Nugget, Palisade and Simcoe hops, Nugget Nectar has developed somewhat of a cult following thanks to its unique taste and limited releases each year, and this Imperial Amber Ale will be the impetus for several events throughout central PA, Philadelphia, and select locations in Ohio. Several artists have teamed up with Tröegs to create their own take on the Nugget Nectar artwork, and the “First Squeeze” series of events will feature a different artist showcasing their work alongside the beer itself.

January 9 – South Central PA, Lehigh Valley, Philadelphia, Ohio
January 16 – North Central PA, Western PA, State College, Scranton
January 23 – New Jersey, Maryland, Washington D.C., Delaware
January 30 – North Carolina, Virginia, Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts

If you’re looking to pick up a six-pack or simply enjoy a pint at your local watering hole, you can use Tröegs’ helpful Brew Finder tool to track down which retailers and restaurants will be stocking this seasonal treat. Happy Nugget Nectar season, Tröegs fans!
