COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bottle: Filtered
Ingredients: Water, barley malt, hops, yeast.
A beer that has a dominant malty taste. This beer’s origins in a monk’s recipe are reflected in its heartiness. The Pope of Beers, Conrad Seidl, describes it as: “Almost black with a very slight red tone, a sensational, festive foam and truly extraordinary fragrance that at first summons up visions of greaves lard. The first taste is of mild fullness with an accompanying coffee tone, which becomes more dominant with the aftertaste. There is very little of the sweetness that is frequently to be tasted with doppelbock beer.” The Ayinger Celebrator has been ranked among the best beers of the world by the Chicago Testing Institute several times and has won numerous medals. 18.5°

AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20This one really surprised me. First that I could find it in Atlanta, secondly that I really enjoyed (am enjoying, 1/2 way through) it. Very dark color. Could not see any light through it, extremely dark. Chocolately(?) taste. Very malty, not very bitter at all. Very thick and chewy. Very pretty head on it. All around really nice beer.

UPDATED: DEC 5, 2021 Bottle online from The Trembling Madness.
Pours a deep mahogany colour with a thinnish creamy beige head. Aromas of dry dark fruits, berries, caramel and toasty brown bread. Taste is more dark fruits, fruit cake, caramel, chocolate, a touch smoky and nutty, also a burnt roasty bitterness and a touch of brown sugar on the finish. Medium body, low carbonation and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Nice.

UPDATED: OCT 23, 2021 Pours deep crimson with a light tan head that dissipates quickly. Aroma of raisins and plums. Sturdy malt backbone balanced with light alcohol and muted hops. Great beer, I haven’t had it in about 15 years. As good as I remember!

UPDATED: SEP 22, 2021 (Bottle) Dark chestnut body with a medium/large tan head that recedes into a thinnish layer with moderate lacing. Strong malty aroma with chocolate, dark coffee, nuts, yeast, toast; hints of dark fruit. Medium bodied with moderate soft carbonation; smooth, oily texture with some warming alcohol. Rich malt flavor with toasted and chocolate notes; hints of dark dried fruit; very light pepper; moderately sweet.
4.1
UPDATED: AUG 24, 2021 Small bottle drunk at home on an August evening. Hazy mid brown, head, lacing and even some rising carbonation. Aromas of toast, dark rum, creamy coffee, raisins, port, vanilla, smoky molasses. Rich flavours that echo the aromas, thick smooth frothy texture, enough sweetness to keep it all in balance with a long mid-bitter finish leaving sweet vanilla on the lips. Perfect Doppelbock.
3.2
UPDATED: AUG 9, 2021 Legendarny koźlak, ale mnie nie podszedł, jakieś korkowe nuty w ustach zgoła absurdalne, może wadliwa beczka alboco. Pite w KiK
