Spaten Optimator

	Spaten-Franziskaner-Bräu Spaten Optimator Munich, Germany 7/24/2009, bottle, 7.2 abv
Smell	The smell was sweet and malty with some fruit, like raisins or prunes.
Appearance	Very dark with a small head. When held up to the light, it revealed a nice, deep ruby color.
Taste	Taste was sweet, malty, caramelly with some of the alcohol coming through. There was no hop bitterness. The carbonation seemed a little weak.
Comments	I think this one needed a hop kick to balance out the sweetness. I didn't care much for the Optimator.
