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.

Bottle. Creamy wgite good mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Powerfull malty aroma. very soapy flavor from the terrible yeast used. Doesnt go well with the way too sweet toffee notes. Oily palate. I really dont like this beer.

Morimoto Soba Ale is at first a very appealing beer, based on its gorgeous appearance. However, its aroma and taste do not hold up their end of the bargain, and this ends up being a fairly average beer. It pours a murky medium amber color with an off-white, fully-diminishing head with light carbonation in the body. No lacing remains on the glass. Aroma is of light hops with lemon and citrus notes, although it conjures up images of wet dog and, as such, is not very enticing. Initially moderately sweet, it mellows to a soft sweet finish with an average duration. Watery in texture, it has soft carbonation on the tongue with a lemon tinge. A very interesting beer. Reviewed in November, 2006.

Bottled. Golden with some haze. Low but firm white head. Aroma of mild flowers, raw yeast, cookies and Seville oranges. Mild and medoim bitter flavour of nuts, oranges, grass and yeast. Short finish of toffee, nuts and a small citric acidity.

Bottle as Morimoto Soba Ale. Amber, orange colour with a dense off white head. Vague roasted malty aroma with notes of some caramel sweetness and hints of fruit. Light roasted bitter flavor with some caramel sweetness and a hoppy dry finish.

This one comes as Morimoto Soba Ale. It’s warm golden with a nice, creamy head. The aroma is sweetish with notes of grain and slightly perfumed fruit. The flavour is sweetish, very mild and smooth and the notes are light fruit, flower and grain and a light bitterness. The overall impression is light, but also a bit boring - not my beer, even if I normally love the Rogues... 1816
