May 21, 2008 Bottle. This is always a sure fire way to introduce a non craft enthusiast to non generic over advertised beer. Never really tried to age this one but this is my second favorite doppelbock as far as i can remember. Pours brown with a dark head. The malts balance very nicely to create an extremely drinkable nectar. Little hops or etoh. Awesome.

May 19, 2008 Very good brew. This poured a dark amber brown with a tan fluffy head. Aroma was of roasted malt, dark fruit, and caramel. Flavor was more dominated by dark fruit and malt with a hint of molasses in the aftertaste. No alcohol noticeable. Very smooth and easy to drink. Leaves a nice flavor in the mouth. Very good. Would buy again.

May 16, 2008 pour was awesome- dark dark ruby with an incredibly formed head- rose from the bottom with carbonation, coolest looking pour i’ve ever seen. lacing was extremely thick, almost no holes to it. Aroma has lots of roasted malt, some sweet hints of brown sugar, caramel and molasses. also a very slight hint of dark fruit. flavor is very much similar to aroma, but has a great kick of roasted malt when the beer hits the back of the tongue. Mouthfeel not as strong as impys or belgian strongs, but still an absolutely superb beer.

May 16, 2008 Pours beautiful dark ruby red with huge beige head. Aroma is incredible- sweet molasses, raisin, caramel, brown sugar, plum, and apricot. Flavor was an impressive mix of sweet dark fruits, heavy malt, and a hint of hop bite. Overall incredible.

does not count  May 13, 2008 I first tried Celebrator with Beershine a few months back, and the little white goat trinket still cheers me when I see it hanging above my sink. So when my sister was in labor early this morning, I thought of popping a Celebrator, only to realize that I did not have one. So tonight Beershine texts to say she’s going to open one in honor of my sister’s 24-hour natural childbirth and the new baby, Nathaniel Ezra Cote, whose father-in-law Pierrre, is a beerlover himself. I had to come over and pop open one (see picture) on my nephew’s real first birthday. And it was as tasty and festive as I had remembered!

May 12, 2008 Pours a dark ruby color that is quite nice to look at with a good tan head that reduces to a nuce layer of small bubbles. Smell is caramel, and malt. Taste is very malty with a good breadiness that lingers nicely. I might even be detecting some chocolate caramel notes that are really interesting.
