Not very impressed at all.
Interesting use of buckwheat but I suspect they didn’t source very good buckwheat.
The buckwheat should be more pronounced for sure.
Will not order again.

Nov 29, 2008 When I picked out a Buckwheat ale in the store I was hoping that it would actually be a wheat beer. It did not appear to be cloudy. Little citrus in the aroma or flavor. It was better than a Bud summer beer though.

Nov 20, 2008 (bottle) A cloudy, light-orange beer with a medium sized white head. The aroma has sweet fruit and flowers. Flavor is sweet with only a small hop edge. Grassy and earthy. Smooth, soft, and medium bodied.

Oct 31, 2008 Bottled as Morimoto Soba Ale. Aroma is faint and vegetal. Flavor is creamy almost buttery but I don’t sense the nuttiness it supposedly has. It is a new taste but I think some what similar to Blue Moon’s Honey Moon Summer Ale. Not exactly but still reminiscent enough. Im very much liking this.
