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.

This beer has one of the greatest aromas ever. So thick and grainy. I liked the full body, dark quality and presence of flavor.

Bottle in Boston at an Indian restraunt on Boylston right after the Yanks beat the Sox. Deep nut brown pour. Malts, carmel, more malts, sweetness, hint of raosting and bitterness. A perfect doppel. Nice dry finish. A fun beverage.

330 mL bottle. Pours dark brown with a medium light tan head. Aromas of dark fruits, caramel, alcohol, maybe a roasty hint. Flavor is dark fruits primarily, some caramel, chocolate, and light coffee, some bitterness, tiny bit of alcohol. Flavors combine nicely overall. Fairly clean finish with only a little chocolate/dark fruit hanging on. Very nice. I think someday I’ll need to cover a small Christmas tree with these little ornament things on the bottles.

On tap at Tylers, Durham. Truly one of the most glorious, perhaps the most glorious examples of this style. Wonderful dark pour with a thick, creamy head. The aroma is filled with smoky, rich sweet malts, and a trace of wood in the finish. Tastes just about like that, a hefty body delivering the flavors well, making it satisfying and oddly quite quaffable.

NICE!!!! Everything about this beer is quality. The appearance, scent and taste are phenomenal. Quite drinkable for a higher ABV, however the alcohol doesn’t overpower the beer. Name is worthy of the product---

Bottle at home ... Deep brown ... thin off white head... woody toffee meaty malt nose ... deep rich toffee ... and id confirm the teriyaki hints how very odd but it works very well ... smooth and soft ... little alcohol in back but only a little...
