Pours orangish-amber with a small white head and little effervescence. Smells like a nutty lager. Flavor starts off good and nutty, with a great-tasting maltiness, but finishes on what can only be the soba. And I apparently don’t like soba. Different, but not too good. Light and refreshing.

bottle. foggy copper-orange body with a light, small white head. ryeish aroma, some sweet maltiness, and a generally low hop profile. I guess maybe this is what buckwheat is supposed to smell like...light body, perfectly quaffable. moderate spritzy carbonation. malty body. decent.

this was a nice, light, subtle beer with a unique flavor of the soba/buckwheat. I would recommend this for a night of japanese food eating.

Bottle: Cloudy gold color with a small white head. Aromas of wet wheat and tastes not too bad. A nice balance. I didn’t notice any hop bitterness. Nothing too blow you away though. The feel is kind of thin with an average amount of carbonation. I would drink it again if someone like Indiana_Red handed one to me. Thanks I_R!

morimoto soba ale. cloudy orange, interesting sweet aroma of unknown source. yeasty wheat flavor, slightly fruity and bitter. at first repulsive mouthfeel, but becomes much better after a couple sips.

Bomber bottle. Morimoto Soba Signature Ale. Hazy amber color with moderate head that diminished quickly. Moderate aroma of malt and fruit. Medium body. Moderate flavor of malt and hops with a citrus finish. Average brew for Rogue.

Morimoto Soba Ale - clear yellowish pour with a medium white head that dissipated fast, leaving a white film. Fruity, hoppy aroma. Smells pretty damn good. Nice balance between the malt and hops. Crisp, clean, roasty and hoppy at the same time. The finish is a little thin, and has a tangy bitterness to it. Refreshing, although the tanginess to finish is a little too much. Interesting and well done just the same.
