Rogue Morimoto Soba Ale

This was decent ale with a fair amount of hop taste. Overall, however, not up to my expectations for a Rogue brew. I wouldn’t turn one down if someone else was buying but nothing I’d go out of my way for.

bottle - Pours hazy amber-orange with a very thin head. The aroma is yeasty and has lots of spice. The flavor has sweet malts up front with plenty of spices and a hint of citrus. The palate is a little on the thin side. I did enjoy this one though.

Received for my birthday. Certainly not a typical Rogue beer. Would probably go best with a light meal, as the texture of the beer is weaker than normal. This beer is not very complex and leaves a lot to be desired in taste.

Light malty and chocolate aroma. Large frothy initial apperance. Off-white head. Good lacing. Mostly diminishing longevity. Clear orange body. Moderate sweet initial flavor. Medium palate. Watery texture.

Nice ale after a meal. Finish is dessert-like. A pale amber ale with mild fruit and flower notes. Citrus and doughy flavours blend well. Tingles tongue front to back...smoother than I expected.

Morimoto Soba Ale pours with very little head and a golden color. Not a strong flavored beer, but finishes pleasantly.

Bottle. Clear yellow with mostly diminishing white head. Aroma offes slightly sweet malt and some hops. Malt and slightly sweet toffee in the flavor. Average finish.

Bottle. Hazy golden colour with a medium creamy head. Nice aroma of hops with toffee notes. Skunky taste. If it wasnt for the bad finish, this would be a good beer, but the aroma promised to much.
