A nice doppelbock from Troegs, 8.2%ABV. Malty, caramel, proportionally heavier body. Mild hop bitter on the backend, caramel gets a little burnt. Slick mouthfeel. Maybe a little hot. I forget the price point on it, but I'd rather go for a Celebrator.
Compared to Optimator, it's definitely heavier and a different expression for the style. I remember not caring much for Optimator as I found it watery and a little lacking in flavor. So this more robust, but maybe too heavy for the style.
