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.

Oh yes. I do love doppelbock. Sorry that I avoided grabbing this for so long. Nice brown pour out the bottle with a better than average head. Smells of malt and fruit. Tastes of biscuit, caramel, and even a bit of licorice. I can’t imagine how good this is on tap.

Clear golden color. Small white head that quickly disappears. Aroma is very sweet. Malts and Caramal. Failrly good palate. Starts off sweet, some spice and finishing with a taste of alcohol and some hops. Not bad overall but I do think the alcohol is a little to prevalant at times.

On tap @ De Geuzen en Café Gollem, last winter. Amber colour, big creamy head. Aroma of sweet malts, caramel. Flavour is sweet and malty, dough, caramel. The first few sips are very sweet, afterwards the nice soft bitter finish comes out. Very nutricious and tasteful beer.

22 oz bottle. Nice caramel, malty aroma. Strong, musty tea flavors overpowered the caramel malty and slight brandy flavors. Maybe I had an old bottle in the States but the flavors seemed out of balance.

Off white full lasting head. Dark anber colour. Aroma is malty, fruity (raisins) with light caramel, wooden and alcohol notes. Flvor is malty too with dark fruits, honey and caramel tones, ending in a more balanced, slightly fruity finish. Medium bodied.

Man this is the best German beer I have ever had. Carmel flavors work with lively carb to mask the heavy alcohol. makes this smooth and easy drink. lt has an amber colour ... which is pleasant surprise because one would expect a really dark colour if you where sipping this out of the bottle before you poured it. Good stuff. .

(Bottle) Pours a reddish brown with a small creamy off-white head. The aroma is medium malty/syrupy and light hoppy with tones of caramel, syrup, dark (rye) bread, vanilla-ish marshmallows, light honey, light marzipan, light toasted almonds, and flowers. Some dried fruits and brown sugar in the undertones. The flavour is medium to full malty and light hoppy with tones of caramel, syrup, dark bread and flowers alongside a light touch of dried fruits. Some alcohol is present in the flavour. Medium to full sweet and light bitter. The mouthfeel is somewhat creamy but too clean/sterile with a light sticky touch. The finish is light numbing from the alcohol with some earthy bread-like tones lingering. Medium to full bodied.
