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.

Poured from a dark brown 0.5 liter bottle with a best by date of 12/08 (L361740), and rated at 7.0% ABV. Poured a dark amber with a very short-lived head. Had a sweet malty aroma with maybe a trace of molasses. The flavor was sweet and malty with a light hint of caramel, but well balanced by hop bitterness and the warmth of alcohol. Though Spring is nearly over, this has become my favorite bier in Germany, at least when it’s below 50 outside! I’m focused on developing a recipe for this one so I can clone this one when I return to the states.

Pours copper/red with a frothy white head that disappears quickly. Aroma of toffee and caramel. Taste of roasted malts with a finish of cherries and light hops. Full mouth feel. Very nice Dopplebock.

Bottle. Recommended by BevMo employee when I complained that they were out of Celebrator. Poured a dark ruby brown color, with a light white head that quickly left. Nose of malt, maybe lightly roasted. Tastes pretty good, lighter that I would like, with a medium body. Finishes well, but leaves me desiring more.

Bottled 50cl. 7.9 ABV. It pours a deep amber beer with a dissapearing white head. The nose is of berries, eucalyptus, smoke, caramel, carrots, syrup and wood. Very well balanced and rather strong. The taste is syrupy with hints of caramel, candy, smoke and hop. Good balance. Some figs. Lots of alcohol before the finish which is of caramel. Hints of marmite, grass and aniseed.

A nagyböjt idejére főzték a Pálos szerzetesek a malátában gazdag dupla bakot hogy átvészeljék ezt az ínséges időszakot.Borostyán színű,kemény habú alkoholban erős lager ez.Fűszeres,gyümölcsös,karamellás ital,aminek az utóízében ott akellemes száraz kesernyésség.Alapmű!

this beer was once one of the best dopplbocks on the market. For some reason the turned it into a weak crappy bock and now call it a double bock. The color is wrong for a dopplbock, the alcohol content is too low and it tastes like a Lienenkugel’s Big But.
