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.

Pours a very enticing brown amber, reminiscent of a scotch ale. A large 1’’ cream-colored head gives off an aroma of burnt sugar, nutmeg, and subtle hints of orange peel. The flavor follows through with nutmeg, chocolate, coffee, and tannin. This stuff is super-smooth, making it even more of a pleasure to drink. Superb!

Wonderful hop aroma and flavor. Dark ale without being thick. Very smooth finish. Drink at cellar temperature to fully enhance the flavors. This beer offers more distinct flavors than can be listed here.

WOW! Poured a very dark Coffee like Colour. The aroma was sweet. The Flavour explodes with Coffee/Caramel/Sugar/Cream/Butter/Cheese/Cream. The Foam stays with you the whole way. The Alcohol Mingles with the Sugar Flavours so Subtley that the cocktail like flavour is seductive. This is one beer that lived up to it’s hype. Salud!

Pours a beautiful dark brown color with a decent sized tan head, which quickly dissipates after a minute or so. The aroma is pretty malty and the taste is as well. I like this beer, as it seems to carry qualities of a good stout.

First of all, some bitchass i’m with decided to just click "back" as i was writing a worthy review to this excellent brew. I’m too lazy to redue it. But the creamy, thick, tan head, coupled with a delicious fruity and caramel flavor makes me want more of this delic.

Great malty texture. Good color and head (darker than picture) - one of the best finishes of this type of beer.
