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.

dark amber with a small white head that leaves little to no lacing behind. smells like a brown ale but with a spicier taste of clove mixed in.

I love this stuff. My favorite place to drink this is at the Rathskeller when Polka Boy is playing. It’s smooth on the palate, high in alcohol and well balanced all the way through. It’ not the best Double Bock I’ve had, but it’s one of the tops. Nice thick head and dark in color. Full of malt, carmel and bread flavor.

Bottle. Dark amber colour with nice beige head. Aroma and taste of sugary malt, fruit and berry, bread and caramel. Very balanced with medium carbonation. A great classic.

2008 Bottle - Pours a beautiful amber with a small tannish head. Aroma is powerful yeast, sugary malt and dried fruit. Flavour is drier than the aroma would suggest, but still is a bit cloying. The profile is pretty simple and leaves a weird feeling on the sides of my mouth, Also, there is a metallic nuance that I thought would go away, but stuck around and made this pretty hard to drink...

A- Pours a deep reddish copper color with a small, brownish off-white head. S- There is a subtle sweet smell. Hints of dark fruits. Very laid back but pleasant nose. T- Tastes of darkened wheat, with an almost candy-like sweetness. M- This brew has fairly light carbonation however it is somewhat thick. It leaves a syrupy coating in my mouth that feels a bit unpleasant. D- This is fairly easy to drink taste wise but because of the way it coats your mouth i’d have to say drinkability suffers.

50cl bottle. Clear dark red-amber with a big fluffy head. Smells a little doughy with some breadcrust, caramel, and light metal. The flavor is big malts with lots of plum and caramel. Very clean and crisp, with no apparent alcohol. Full bodied with small, crisp bubbles. A little boring, as I tend to find the style, but very clean and drinkable.
