Morimoto Black Obi Soba Ale

Essentially this is, acts and drinks much like a low quality Porter.

It has all the appearance, aroma and taste characteristics of a watered down version of the classic English brew. Some creamy head remians after the initial pour, but not much. A little lacing.

A wee bit thin in terms of the body and mouthfeel for a Porter, but some decent smokiness and chocolate malt character in the beer.

A little bit watery in the finish, but some hop bitterness in the end. A drying finish too. Caramel overtones but they are not as creamy or as silky as I would like, but rather somewhat weak and lacklustre.
