Commercial Description:
Celebrator has a creamy head of tight bubbles contrasting beautifully with its profound dark robe. It is full-bodied and velvety from half a year's aging. Although it is strong, it is not overpowering. There is a wonderful and complex balance between the various malts, the alcohol and the subtle hops. A complex fruitiness of roasted malt and whole hop flowers make Celebrator great as a party drink with friends and family at celebrations. Despite its richness, it has a faintly smoky dryness in the finish.

WOW. Pours nearly black w/yellowish head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is ’Christmas’--Bitter chocollate, brown sugar and malt. Big coffee flavor with notes of caramel & smoke. Full, rich body, but not overpowering. Nice balance of malt with subtle, hoppy finish.

Full bodied and malty, roasty and soft, one oof the best beers sold in Alko in Finland. The complexity of the malts and the overall balance of it all makes this a great beer for me.

This is a really satisfying, substantive, sweet, dark beer. How can you not love it? It’s got body, and flavor, and everything you’d want.

Pours dark brown, almost black. Very full-bodied, malty flavor, feels thick and chewy in the mouth. Something caramel in the taste. but that’s not overhwhelming. Bitter on the aftertaste, but it doesn’t linger too long. A very nice brew.

It pour a beautiful dark brown/black, also had a thick brown head that settled to a pure white. It had a very full bodied taste. Tastes of carmel and mocha. Slight bitter finish but not over bearing at all.

(Bottle). Very strong, sweet malty aroma. Color is deepest brown, almost black. Smallish tan head. Flavor a symphony of roasty malted caramel notes, with satisfying mouthfeel and dry lasting finish. This is a heckuva good beer; can’t wait to repeat the experience.

Bottle. One of my favorite beers and one of the first craft brews I ever tried. Aroma is a pleasant roasted sweet maltiness. It looks great, a model of a beer. Deep amber in color with a thick tan head. Excellent flavors of sweet roasted malt and caramel. Extremely drinkable but also flavorful.
