Very different in flavor. Some wheat like grains, or was it urinal cake? Litteraly gaged on the aroma. fidemaster (172), USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 19, 2008 This beer started out really nice. Its like buckwheat pancakes, with maple syrup, and I love it. However that quickly fades and you get this bitter citrus tastes which isnt too appealing. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 18, 2008 22 oz bottle labeled as Morimoto Soba Ale thanks to padrefan. Amber/orange pour with decent white head. Aromas were some citrus hops and notes of light fruits and bread. Flavors were similar with a strange bitterness that I couldn’t place as hops. Some spice and graininess on the finish. Interesting, but not spectacular. Enjoyit (1707), Vadum, Denmark
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 14, 2008 Unclear amber of color with a weak off white head. An aroma of hops, bread notes, fruity, apples and caramel. A flavor with bread and hoppy notes. mar (1807), Dallas, Texas, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 7, 2008 Not the best offering from Rogue. Pours a muddy orange like color, small amount of head and not much lacing. Aroma is hoppy and sweet and pretty appealing. When I drink this I feel like I’m drinking a watered down orange, grapefruit juice. Not a beer. Mouthfeel is thin, flavor again is orange, grapefruit like and a little sweet. Quite sour as well which lingers into the aftertaste. Nothing I’m going to get again. ilovedarkbeer (1333), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 5, 2008 This is weak. Listed as morimoto soba ale. Pours a corny golden color with a small to medium sized white head. Nose is cardboard, wheat, some lightstruck, Taste is corny, bread like, and a bit bitter. Very basic and pretty bad. sudline (26), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Apr 4, 2008 Morimoto Soba Ale. Nice golden color. Light and crisp throughout the drinking experience. Decent flavor. Doesn’t do anything wrong, but nothing makes it really stand out. I would have this again with a light dinner.
