FishManLA (149), Abita Springs, Louisiana, USA May 4, 2008 Pours a dark neutral brown with very little tan head. Nose is malty with the slightest sweet hint of fruit. Taste is malty and caramelly with a hint of plum and raisin. Finish is sweet with just a slightly bitter snap of hops.
soyorganic (100), Denver, Colorado, USA Jul 20, 2008 Pours a black color with small white head. A nice beer that is lager-esque in feel but has a strong malt backbone that has coffee notes. To me this seems like it could almost get away with being called a stout. bruno1378 (106), Nashua, New Hampshire, USA Jul 17, 2008 pours a very very dark amber/brown color, no lasting head at all. great aroma, caramel, almost a bit fruity. goes down smooth. a bit soft when drinking, overall i definitely enjoy this one. a good fall beer. aenimopiate (124), The United States of Texas, Texas, USA Jul 17, 2008 I thought I would give a different doppelbock a shot, and I think I like the Celebrator better. This one has a good malty flavor, but the Celebrator just seems to be a more complete beer. This is a decent German bier that has the ability to stand on its own, but they seemed to have missed the mark a hair. If you try this one and like it, you’re bound to love Celebrator. Tweety (158), Boston, Massachusetts, USA Jul 15, 2008 A fine example of the doppelbock. Not as good as Celebrator, but very tasty nonetheless. carruthm (316), USA Jul 13, 2008 brown pour with medium head with a good malt aroma accompanied by dark sugars/caramel. Taste more mellow, mostly just malts.
