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.

The aroma is strong, sweet with notes of prunes, brown sugar, citrus, coffee, malt, and bitter chocolate. The color is deep red-brown and it has a beutiful lasting light brown head. The flavor is sweet malty with very strong roasted notes; coffee, roasted bread, combined with caramel, alcohol, citrus, and more - great complexity. The alcohol runs prickling over the tongue and gives it a good palate.

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark - almost black - beer with a reddish tint and an impressive, tall and sturdy head with a light brown color. Spicy, smoked with notes of caramel but actually quite dry. Not nearly as sweet as a typical Doppelbock. Actually quite stout-like - but a lot more potent. 050703

Dark brown. A good malty double bock. Full bodied, chewy and flavourful. Doesn’t have the outstanding malt chraracter of Andechser though.

33 cL bottle, thanks to Grovlam. Pours dark and dense brown with a dense and tan head. Sweet cornish and mild roasted malt aroma. Flavour is mildly roasted malt with a mild fruity note. The alcohol certainly helps to lift the flavours up. Light breadish note before and into the finish. Quite malt dense yet light fruity sweet too. Light sharpness in the finish with a light roasted bitterness.
