Tap at Tadg’s. Light aroma of Sorachi Ace, much lighter than the pilsner. Chewy chocolate malts. Flavor is chocolate, bread, nice malts, light creamy vanilla. Nice, but the hop could be stronger.

Sorachi Ace single hopped dark lager paired with vegetarian pizza. Dark black with a beige head and an aroma of lemon, herbs and chocolate. Feels thicker than the orange & coriander version in terms of mouthfeel with a rich bready chocolate flavor. Very nice stuff with the sorachi ace giving a herbal minty lemon character in the finish. The pizza draw out the bready grain character of the beer which is nice. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Tap at CBM Koenji. Slightly hazy brown with a finger of fluffy cappuccino-like foam. Chocolate and toffee on the nose with some light coffee. As it warms that classic dill and cream cheese aroma comes out. Smooth and pillowy on the palate. So easy to drink. Quite complex and fun. Sorachi ace on the finish with light roasted malt. Fantastic and quite original! --- Beer merged from original tick of Sorachi Ace Dark Lager on 10 May 2016 at 19:39 - Score: 8. Original review text: Feck me this is good. Chocolate brownie, light coffee and that dill cream cheese thing in the background. Smooth and creamy.
