Golden, hazy appearance. Medium head. The extreme bitterness overwhelms most of the other flavours, which are there but are hard to find.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Looks good, amber, hazy and with a lasting white head. Ok so far. But the rest is pure butter, diacetyl. No reason to write any more than that.

0.33 L bottle from Kihoskh, København. Firm big-bubbled yellow-shaded blond head. Hazy orange colored body. Spiced and perfumey hop nose, notes of lemon. Taste is fresh pale malts, fruity and spicy hops, with some herbal and light astrigent sidenotes. Well-bodied for a 4.6% beer. Smooth mouthfeel. Finishes fairly dry with fruity and spicy bitterness.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
33 cl bottle @ home. Pours slightly murky amber with a white head that leaves a little lacing. Aroma is spicy, slightly tart, grapefruit, fruity hops. Flavour has the same spicy, tarty, grapefruity notes that dominates the aroma.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange/amber with a big creamy egg shell head. Good lacing. Lightly spicy, grassy citrusy hop aroma. A wee bit tart. Has a weird off-note; somewhat barf-like, but not really. Flavour is also a bit spicy, with an orange peel note and and a grape fruit-like bitterness. Tart. The finish is dry and has the same grape fruit bitterness. Lingering light alcohol burn, which is surprising considering the abv. A bit too much carbonation. Overall okay and well-balanced, but the bitterness feels intrusive; guess I’m not really a Sorachi Ace person. 17.08.12.

2.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours bright orange with a nice whote head. Smells... hops! Citrus with hints of herbs. Tastes... nothing new, just as it smells only with sweetness and bitterness added into it. Nice ale.
