(Draught at Monk’s Porterhouse, Stockholm, 18 May 2012) Golden amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, apricots, grass and floral hops. Malty, fruity taste with notes of citrus, grass, caramel, a touch of dill and fresh floral hops in a fairly dry finish. Medium body, quite dry. Tasty, refreshing and nice.

Draught @ Ølfestival København 2012. Very typical sorachi nose and taste. Dry, crayfish broth with lots of dill, nettles, rusty nails, herbs. I guess you love or hate it. I can´t really deside.

On tap. Pours a hazy golden with an off-white head. Lovely dry Sorachi Ace aroma - although I could take even more of that! Fairly light body, very, very dry almost bordering astringent. The alphas in the SA really come out in the finish. The dryness makes this very drinkable, but - as usual - I’d personally prefer it a little sweeter. 110512

Buttery vanilla aroma, some dill also. Hazy dark golden colour. Small white head. The flavour also has vanilla and dill. Quite bitter and nicely clean. Good mouthfeel.

Draught @ Ølfestival Cøpenhagen 2012
Aroma is stale with some peaches and vanilla. Flavour has bubblegum, gooseberry bush and hints of plastic. Not my favourite hop...

2012-05-06, draught at Fairbar, Århus, 7-4-7-3-13=34
Cloudy golden color with creamy head. The aroma is quite mild. The flavor is very dry, weak body, with a sopay lemony malt flavor. Strong bitterness, a bit too much of it in the end.
Unexciting, they can do better (fresher and fruitier) things with Sorachi Ace.

2012-04-29, draught at Fairbar, Århus, 7-4-7-3-13=34
Cloudy golden color; creamy head. Mild aroma of Sorachi Ace, less deep and pungent than in many other beers; it has also a cookie, biscuity touch. Dry but soft mouthfeel, medium-weak body; some malt flavor with a toffee trace; lemony hops with a light vanilla-cake touch; but also, unfortunately, too much bitterness.
A dirty, unbalanced Sorachi Ace beer.
Not bad, but unelegant.
