Commercial Description:
The Paulaner Salvator with its strong,typically malty taste is the original Paulaner. The bottom-fermented Doppelbock-Bier unites the finest hops and dark barley malt. The Paulaner monks served Salvator as a replacement for food at Lent. Their most famous brewer was Brother Barnabas, who was the head of the Paulaner monastery brewery starting from 1773. Its original recipe is today almost the same as it was in Barnabas' time. In order to protect the original recipe, Paulaner had the trade mark "Salvator" patented in 1896.

(Draught at Hilpeä Hauki on 2008-11-07) Deep amber and clear. Small white head. Sweet malty nose. Full bodied palate with lot of carbonation. Malts, hint of roastedness, some alcohol, boiled vegetables and bitterness in taste. Sweetness and bitterness in aftertaste.

Pours a gin clear amber with a super thin off-white head. Some carbonation..no lacing. Aroma is fruity, with hints of bitter-sweet chocolate malts. Flavor is consistent with the aroma, with a touch of alcohol (brandy/port). Palate is light-med bodied, slighty water and slick. Overall a very enjoyable, highly drinkable dark lager.

Bottle from Carringtons, Manchester. Bit too thin for a Doppelbock for me. Other than that, not a bad beer of its type but not exceptional.

Pours brownish amber with tan head. Smells like burnt grains, sweet mollassy. Tastes sweet, roasty, starts bitter with the burnt grains, followed by some fruity sour/sweetness. Hints of honey or molasses and some cocoa. Not to my liking.

Draught. Sweet malty and molassy nose, little fruitiness, syrup. Slightly toasty, but there ain’t much hops. Flavor is sweet syrupy malts, sweet pear and alcohol. Almost closer to European strong lagers, than ”proper” dobbelbocks. A bit thin palate, with soda like carbonation. I remember this being a lot more chewy and warming from bottle, should probably re-rate that way sometime.

Great maltiness as expected from this style but not overly sweet. Beautiful brown color with well balanced hops.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber color, thin off white head, very malty, fruity, and flavorful. Not a huge fan of doppelbocks but this is worth trying.
