I really liked Optimator, wasn’t sure what the style was when sampled @ World Cafe Live beer fest. Hoppy, medium bodied dark beer with sweet malt and great drinkability.

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.

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.

Jul 15, 2008 A fine example of the doppelbock. Not as good as Celebrator, but very tasty nonetheless.

Jul 13, 2008 brown pour with medium head with a good malt aroma accompanied by dark sugars/caramel. Taste more mellow, mostly just malts.

Jul 8, 2008 I think this, ayinger’s, and paulaner’s are all similar, and all great. But I can get this a lot cheaper than the other two.
