Ayinger Celebrator Doppelbock

Brewed by Brauerei Aying
Style: Doppelbock
Aying, Germany

Deep amber-brown pour with a nice tan head. Dark fruits in the aroma with some coffee in there but it is all pretty light. Yeasty flavor with an undertone of coffee throughout. Almost like a yeasty raisin bread. Bit of a tangy finish.

Pour is dark brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma is dry with a little bit of coffee scents. Flavor is a malty and dry. A bit of hoppiness but nothing overpowering. Plum and blackcurrant notes. Pretty good, but I think that 100 percentile rating is a little high.

Great aroma, coffee flavors, aftertaste is thick and roasty. Every bottle comes with a plastic goat!

Nose is a toasty grain, sweet malt, hints of chocolate and brown sugar. Flavor is rich roasty malt, bread, raisin, brown sugar, slight smoke.

A strong sweet aroma, candied raisins, caramel, burnt sugar, creme brulee and prunes. Pours dark brown with nice lacing. Mouthfeel is very thin, almost watery, with alot of carbonation, ample for this style of beer. Tastes of apricot, brown sugar and raisins.

bottle, pours dark brown, nearing black with a tall frothy tan head., nice lacing shoots down the glass as it’s consumed. Aroma is very nice with notes of green raisin, cinnamon, a robust and full bread malt, and candy sugar. Wow, this is without a doubt one of the best and most complex German brews I have had. It’s hard to believe this is brewed under the purity law. Tons of beady malt, yeast esters and a spicy nutmeg and cinnamon finish that scream to be tried again. I’ll gladly re-attack this all night. Aweome dopplebock.

Bottle, thanks to hobbersr.Shared with hobbersr and Macadem. Pours cola brown, with a scant head and good lacing. Nose is spicy hops, plus raisins, figs, root beer, leaves and earth. Flavors of fruit, spice, earth, smoke, very nice, but a 4.1 overall? I just don’t get it.
