Augustinerbräu Maximator

Reviewed: September 2011
ABV: 7.5%
Brewery: Augustiner-Bräu Wagner KG
Country: Germany
Beer Type: Doppelbock
2011 Rating: C+
2010 Rating: N/A

Comments:  This brewery has been in business since 1328 AD - impressive.  (They specify AD on the label, so you do not mistakenly think they have been in business since 1328 BC - you have to love the Germans!)
Pours a clear reddish brown color with a 1 finger tan head. Aroma is sweet malt, caramel & fruit.  This beer is rich & sweet - drink it warm to taste all of it's flavors.  Sweet malt molasses or caramel, fruit & alcohol taste.  Probably should have rated this bier higher, but I just wasn't in a "doppelbock mood".
