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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Mar 26, 2008 Bottled as Rogue Morimoto Soba Ale. Attractive gold color, like straw, and a nice aroma of fruit, hops. The taste is a little unremarkable, maybe a sort of whole grain thing going on, but not very strong. Slight nuttiness. Like a cereal in a way. The palate has a slight hop bitterness, again not remarkable. Medium mouthfeel. Ok, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to drink it again.
