Dec 11, 2006 Draft at Cali Rollin - Take this beer out of the sushi bar and I wouldn’t even give it a second taste. It’s thoroughly unremarkable UNTIL you pair it with sushi rolls. It’s a nearly perfect match for any tuna, eel or mackerel roll. A fine example of matching beer with cusine.

Jan 31, 2005 2005 on tap at Cali Rollin’ Sushi Bar. Pours golden with medium carbonation. Aroma of barley and eastern spices. Goes amazing with great sushi as ClarkVV and Bucknaked both pointed out. Wasbi undertones are subtle with soy rounding out the circle of flavors. I would drink this beer without sushi but the entire sushi experience at the restaurant is what makes this brew so special. Also good for saki bombs while singing Tiny Dancer.

Dec 12, 2004 Updated: Aug 22, 2007At California Rollin in Rochester. I couldn’t really smell the wasabi, but I really did like the beer. Clean flavor with some hops. Very flat though, which was probably the restaurants fault. Overall I thought it went well with the food and was quite enjoyable.

Sep 26, 2004 (draft @ 2004 Autumn Festival of Ales - Honeoye Falls, NY) Bitter aroma of hops and a little malt with a very slight spicy hint of wasabi. Bitter flavor with a smooth malt backbone and finish. Couldn’t really taste the wasabi. Very flat.
