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.

Bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville. Pours a reddish copper with small but persistent head. Aroma of caramel and a little hoppiness. Texture is thin. Taste is caramel and sour cherry.

bottle same as image. Fruit nose: apple and faint citrus, caramel and slight alc mouth (not a fan of this), little hoppy. While its got a good deal going on, all in all its a bit forgettable. Extra .1 overall for alc content.

Draught. Beautiful oak-amber color with absolutely no head. Aromas of copper, caramel, wood, and citrus. First sip brings caramel and oak with a smoothness that demands a second. Cherries in the aftertaste that define the second sip and a mellow hop finishes it all off. Thick and chewy palate. Complete, balanced, wonderful.

12oz bottle - clear medium amber color with small quickly dissapearing off white head. Aroma is full of light cherry, toasted malt, light caramel and vanilla, hint of lemon, slight roastyness. Flavor has fair amount of chewy malts, light caramel, subtle but notable alcohol presence, with a level of bitterness that is somewhat surpirsing considering the sweetness of the aroma and flavor.

Draught: Copper liquorish and citrus aroma. Amber Brown no head. Great appearance. Black Cherry flavor fallowed by grain and alcohol aroma. Rough Palate: It’s biting from the tip of my tongue to the back of my throat. But a very well balanced beer.

Any time I can get my hands on something referred to as "liquid bread", with a ABV of 7.90%, I’m going to be happy... This dopplebock poured into my large tulip glass with a rich amber color. The glass I used allowed for a great, light tan, rich foamy head. It stayed around for enough time to really aid the great nose of malt and lingering streaks of toffee. Had a wonderful heavy malt taste, with slight bits of toffee, and fresh wheat bread with honey. This beer, for being so substantial, really had a very drinkable, medium bodied mouth feel. This beer is pairing great with my aged white cheddar, but don’t rule out the schnitzel. Never rule out the schnitzel. I’ll leave the fasting to the Monks...Enjoy

This double bock is a medium body, slick feel, soft carbonation, clear and red. This beer has little to no Aroma which was a little disappointing, but overall an excellent Double from Germany since 1634.

Deep brown with a nice but disappearing head. Sweet malty, fruity, somewhat earthy or floral. Quite cloying in the end.
