I bought a 24 case of 12oz. export to Japan from the brewery, and thought it was great. I think I’ll stick to this beer from Rogue, very nice.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottle. Labeled as Morimoto Soba Ale. We tried this ale because we like watching the Iron Chef and have enjoyed other Rogue beers before. Very light in flavor, but deep on nutty flavor. You can smell the roasted soba before the first sip. Yet the initial taste is quite light. Finished with a "miso" flavor. Would highly recommend this ale with lighter, fresh Korean and Japanese foods.
