One of my favorites. Pours a beautiful gold color with a thick, dense head. Has a nice light flavor (without being condescending) and crisp finish. One I could pound back all day.

Bottle. Labeled as Morimoto Soba Ale. We tried this ale because we like watching the Iron Chef and have enjoyed other Rogue beers before. Very light in flavor, but deep on nutty flavor. You can smell the roasted soba before the first sip. Yet the initial taste is quite light. Finished with a "miso" flavor. Would highly recommend this ale with lighter, fresh Korean and Japanese foods.

(Bottle, as Morimoto Soba Ale). Mild, malty aroma. Cloudy orange body, small off-white head. Unusual flavor of malt, buckwheat, some citrus notes. Very different and pleasant.

Bomber at Jerry’s. Cloudy amber with good, foamy off-white head / Sour malt nose / Medium body, malty, with good, smooth, lightly-hopped finish / Flavors of buckwheat (soba), roast nuts, caramel, and lemon / A distinctive, easy drinking amber ale.
