Yeah I said it! I want to make Celebrator!
I had this beer just this last weekend, and I have to say I love this beer. It covered the high's and the lows. It's got a fruit hint flavor, with some caramel, malt, toffey, coffee, smidgen of nut maybe?, and a non-overpowering hope flavor which compliments the malt.
I did a search and found this thread https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f38/ayinger-celebrator-58060/index2.html. It's the only one with celebrator in it's title.
Some descriptions of this beer by others:
Rich dark and Munich malt with mild toasty and caramel notes and even milder dark chocolate.
Prune flavors moderate, with bitter chocolate evident later.
Bitterness is present, but only balancing the malt through most of the flavor. However, the bitterness does dominate the finish, which is fairly dry and clean.
Another Description of this beer:
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.
I have some ideas of what to put in this recipe, but all thoughts to make this work are welcomed!
I'll have to post a reply this this with what I think it needs. Blah I have to boot from windows Xp to load the recipe I think is close to it, and post it up in a reply. =)
