Aug 17, 2004 Finally, the great beers are available in Georgia. This beer is what I always figured a Doppelbock would taste like. The flavor blew me away. The color is as expected, but wow - what an awesome kick. Excellent. Available at Harry’s Farmer’s Market in Alpharetta.

Nov 18, 2004 Pours dark brown with tan medium sized head. I can’t imagine a dopplebock beeing more perfect than this.

Mar 23, 2005 Updated: Mar 31, 2005Bottle. Pours a dark brown, almost like cola. Hints of ruby coloring. Has a big, thick creamy tan head. Aroma is intoxicating (inadvertant pun). Very rich aroma full of varying fragrances. Amazing taste. Very dry finish with a bit of smoke. Very rich flavor. Slight metallic tinge to it By far my favorite. Truly a treat to the senses. It’s too bad it’s so expensive. Will rerate later on to make sure that my senses aren’t numb because it’s late.

Apr 26, 2005 Updated: Jun 18, 2005Wow. Wow. WOW. Bought this on a whim, drawn by the little white plastic goat. I’ve never been big into doppelbocks, or even Bavarian beers in general, but I think this may have begun a trend. The aroma is amazing, with lots of chocolate and no beery alcohol burn. The taste is also chocolatey, but not too sweet, with some nice roasted flavors as well. A very malty beer overall, in the best possible way. Buy it. Drink it. Love it.
Rerate: Just had it on tap at Eli Canon’s in Middletown. Holy cow. Perfect.

Aug 30, 2008 This comes out of the tap a deep, opaque sable, almost like a stout or porter rather than a bock. Rich, malty aroma has undertones of chocolate and roast coffee. Flavor is smooth and malty, with some hop bitterness and a mocha undertone. There are hints of sweet, nutty and caramel flavors as well. Texture is smooth and pleasing, making for one lip-smacking bock.

Aug 26, 2005 An absolutely lovely little dopplebock with the fine chocolate undercoating that Germans do so well and just the merest association with smoke and floral flavors to take the edge off of the dark brew.

Nov 11, 2007 Updated: Aug 13, 2009At first I had this confused with the Optimator but then after a side by side, the Celebrator is much more roasty and coffee-like.
Brilliant dark amber-brown with light brown head. A true dopplebock.
Malty sweet "goat’s breath" nose on this beer, with some light roasted coffee aromas too. Some chocolatey toasty notes too.
Medium to full bodied. Big Malt warmth, chocolate sweetness, slight hop tang but mostly a nice, earnest malt flavor profile.
Finish is very coffee like to me. Bravo!
