Flavor and aroma of lemongrass and ginger, this high alpha, low cohumulone variety was developed in the early 1980s for Sapporo.

July 28th, 2015 - Well! It's a neat bit of trivia that this brew was originally developed in the early 1980's for Sapporo, and I have to admit, the aroma has a palette of scents that do remind me of restaurants and brewpubs in Tokyo. Heavy on ginger and lemongrass, it is distinctive and nostalgic. And the flavor reflects the aroma, with a long and bitter aftertaste laced with bitter greens. Fascinating, bright and delicious, this is an excellent departure from the last taster here at Bear Republic and redeeming.

I'm assuming I just do not at all like the characteristics of this hop in general. If this is a good representation of this hop in a IPA, I'll call this Sorachi Ass.
It both smells and tasted to me like kitchen cleaner products. Very, very off putting IPA or beer period for that matter. Stay far, far away from this one.

Draft at Bear Republic. Wish it had a bit more nose and body. Enjoyable taste makes up for its lesser qualities. Wouldn't seek it out again, but glad I tried it.
