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.

Bottle, the aroma is of incredible caramel with a bit of malt scent. The taste is malt, malt and more malt and it is absolutely delicious. Amazing terrific beer, would buy again immediately

Great all around beer. smooth smoky aroma that maintains throughout the bottle. Thick tan head holds well for a little while. Malty, melanoidin flavor that would go great with something salty. Alcohol heat not present, a little warming in the stomache. Fun beer to drink...

Awesome double bock. Reddish undertone in a dark, dark, almost black beer. Disguises the alcohol expertly. Delicious medium body with discernibly roasted notes. Perfect for the style, nothing remotely offensive about this outstanding doppel. Excellent nose, excellent mouthfeel, excellent drinkability, excellent everything. Long live the King of dopplebocks.

Nice dark brown pour with a head that develops. Yeast(y) and sweet aroma. Very smooth palate and nice malty flavor. Aftertaste holds on the roasted malt and leaves slightly bitter. Great beer!

Ayinger Celebrator Doppelbock 6.7% ABV 1st nose, it is hoppy, with 1 inch head. 1st taste was light and a bit fizzy. Dry, soft, chocolaty finish. End was kinda thickish. Very good, and acceptable with steak, ribs, sausage. Bought cold, let stand on table for a bit.

Poured dark stout black with a fleeting brown head. Very rich malt aroma. Flavor is dark malts with a light bitter aftertaste followed by nutty mocha.
