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.

Reddish brown pour with a one finger white froth. Quite effervescent. Aroma is quite fruity- almost bordering on vinous. Oaken woodiness prevails up front with a deep caramel dark fruit character coming through with some molasses in the back. Flavor is quite sweet with caramel, slight roast, molasses, grape, plum, and apple. Palate is medium to full bodied with a slight roasty dryness and a lingering smacking sticky sweetness. A slight alcohol warming comes through near the end, but never acts in an intruding or deterring manor. I was quite impressed.

Pours a chestnut color with a decent white head. Aroma holds lots of apple, pear, and grape, with almost a vinous quality. Also some bready notes, and a bit of wood up front. Flavor holds tons of malt, not nearly as fruity as the aroma, though apple, pear, and plum are definitely still present. A spice kick hits near the finish, with notes of wheat and caramel coming through as well. Really a tasty doppelbock, and the 7.9% is a good warming quality for a chilly night. Good stuff.

Bottle. Hazy orange body with a medium off white head. Fruity and malty aroma with some caramel and wheat. Heavy malty flavour with some alcohol and fruit notes.

Bottle (in NZ). Pours a dark amber with a rusty head. Biscuity malt on the nose with stewed fruits and medicinal alcohol. Yummy palate. Heavy malt palate full of fruity flavours, touch of spice, and that 7.9% bite. A lingering cloying finish that makes you want to take another sip.

Bottle. Pours amber with a creamy beige head. Rich aroma and flavour of toffee, dark fruit, caramel and nuts. Great balance in this beer. No hint of the alcohol. Smooth and bitter finish. Very nice - one to sip and savour.

Nice beer. Taste is a little nut, toffee with a small bite of alcohol. I enjoy the entire Paulaner line.

One of my choices among the Paulaner line. What can I say that hasn’t been said among 1500 ratings except that I’ve had, I liked, and will drink again!

500. Pours a crystal clear very dark amber with loose white smear of foam across the top. Dates, nuts, a little campfire smoke, and some dry leaves on the nose. Watery, light body. Toast, nuts, a little smoke, and faint hints of fruits on the mid-palate. Probably a subtle accompaniment to food. Mild nutty finish.
