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.

Bottle. Dark brown, nice full light tan head. Warm, malty aroma with some dark fruits. Tastes of caramel, raisins, plums, and a hint of hops. Sharp mouthfeel finishes clean. Great stuff.

Bottle, Cookie mixed with a horse blanket smell. Off white head that is mostly diminishing. Moderately bitter initial flavor with a average duration. This beer rocks. Best beer from the Brauerel Aying brewery.

Sampled at Cellar’s Wine & Spirits in St Paul, Minnesota. From 330 ml bottle pours a clear reddish dark amber brew with a thin beige head that slowly dissipates to a fine film and off-white ring. Aroma of sweetened caramel malt, a touch of brown sugar, dark pitted fruits and some raisin. Taste is full bodied, very light carbonated with a smooth flavor of dark pitted fruits, raisin, some caramel malt and brown sugar. Finish is semi-sweet, the a malty aftertaste that slowly disappears. I recommend using Celebrator as a guide to compare other dopplebock beers to.

12 oz bottle. Pours a brown body with light brown head. The aroma is coffee, dark fruits, and malt. The taste is pretty complex, I understand why this is rated so high. Flavors of alcohol, coffee, malt, and roastiness.

pours the color of soda, thick brown head aroma is heavy in malts. very smooth for a doppelbock i mean this is extremely smooth, has a great flavor yet very subtle. If you are looking for a doppelbock this is it.

330 ml bottle. Deep reddish brown colour, small off-white head. Sweet aroma of roasted malts, with prunes and raisins. Flavour is like the aroma: sweet dark fruits and roasted malts. Smooth and pleasant mouthfeel. Nice warm aftertaste.
