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.

Can I blame my behaviour on this drink? Wasn’t that strong but that’s my fault for being on a works do, getting home after daft amounts of cheap rubbish and trying to rate it. It does taste strong which isn’t a good thing for me right now. Bit sweet, not that impressed but do not want to give the impression I don’t like it. Not educated enough to put my finger on why it’s a bit...I don’t know.. Smells great, a real lung full like my dinner this evening. Hmm average? I’ll try it again.

0.33l bottle. Pours a clear golden brown with absolutely no head. Lots of carbonation. Smells very strong, mostly of malt. Palate is very smooth. Tastes strongly of malt and alcohol with hint of caramel. Taste becomes quite sweet with a hint of fruit.

bottle. pours clear ruby with thin white head around the rim but that didn’t last 5minutes. the aroma is syrupy cotton candy sweet, with lots of molasses. flavor is sweet, syrupy, molasses and toffee. slightly toasted and nutty. body is really thin and the carbonation is fizzy. pretty sweet, straight forward beer with a bad mouth feel. i expected more because this is barely drinkable.

Pretty tastey....nice use of what appears to me crystal malt and roasted malts. Terrific use of flavor and aroma hops. Rich tan head with good retention. Feels great on the pallat and on the nose. Nice relaxing beer for speacial occasions. Would purchase again.

Bottle, Amber color with tan head. Aroma and flavor very sweet of caramel and nuts and little roasty. Medium carbonation and a bit alcohol finish with sweetness.

Poured from a 12oz bottle and served in a Bell’s dimpled mug. This dopplebock poured a clear, caramel color with a ton of carbonation dancing inside the glass. A one-finger thick head of beige foam lasted throughout. A touch of slippery lace was left behind. The aroma of the beer consisted of lightly roasted caramel malts, bread, and nuts. The flavor was made up of caramel, vanilla, sweet ripe fruits, and a mild noble hop note. The mouthfeel was full-bodied with a good dose of aggressive carbonation. A straightforward beer. Very well crafted and to the point.

Pours a nice copper color with a lot of foam that quickly settles down and stablizes to 1 inch that lasts a while. The brew smells great like its been brewed very slowly, LOL. The taste is sweet and bland malty. The finish is very clean.
