Spaten Optimator

Brewed by Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu (InBev)
Style: Doppelbock
Munich, Germany

12 oz bottle. Caramel colored in the glass with light head. Nose is super sweet malty. Taste is same. Rich and full. Nice all around brew.

it is what it is................................................

Bottle pours a dark reddish brown color with a tan head. Very sweet, roasted malt aroma. The flavor is quite sweet and malty as well. Rich mixture of malts and dried fruits, mostly raisin. Nice lingering aftertaste.

This is a cheap one! Two dollars for a pint. Lots of malts. sweet and bready if thats a word. the doppelbock for all others to be judged!

Deep brown color, sudsy head, lacing, smells like honey covered oats, honey wheat bread, smells very good. The flavor is full on malts, possibly fruity raisins, bready. Overall this is a decent dopple but it smells a lot better than it tastes but who can complain for $2.49? Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 04-27-2009 00:42:31

Sweet caramel, malty aroma with a whiff of coffee. Clear rust appearance. Medium sweetness and bitterness with a hint of salt. Medium body, thin oily texture, soft carbonation. Long, bitter nutty finish. Simple and tasty.

Bottle at hideaway bar. Incredibly sweet, bold caramel malty taste. Also tastes pretty strong, even though it’s not. Pretty good for something that’s really easy to find.

Bottle pours a clear reddish-brown with a large, quickly-thinning, fizzy head. Very little aroma, sweet taste with a long aftertaste of bittersweet caramel. Not particularly interesting, but not bad for a simple pure beer.
