Paulaner Salvator

This Doublebock was awesome. At first I was hesitant because I had the Samuel Adams Doublebock and, even though I am a Samuel Adams fan, I didn’t like it. My only problem was that we wanted a glass to drink it out of but the bartender didn’t hear us so I drank it from the bottle.

Bottle conditioned and courtesy of the LCBO. Poured a wonderful mahogany, with high levels of carbonation and a steady stream of bubbles breaking the surface. A sweet malty aroma with a metallic edge. The flavour was sweet and bready. My first dopplebock...and not my last!

Pours a deep amber color into the dimpled mug. There was an inch of creamy head and a small amount of lacing. The scent was of cloves, spice, malt and fruit. The taste was syrupy sweet with some hints of fruit, cherries, malt and hints of bready notes. A solid doppelbock.

copper brown tan cap of head dark malt nose odd fruit in there too, kinda bready flavor with again a slight sweet fruit flavor, good beer

This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again.

Bottle, from the Dodgy Deli on Cowley Road in Oxford. Red brown, smallish tan cap of foam. Dark caramel malt aroma, along with a healthy dose of cherry flavor. Not actual cherries, more like the cherry syrup that goes on ice cream. Not a bad thing as all. Sweet, plummy malt, a bit of dark bread. Lingering chewy sweetness. Medium bodied--to my taste feels like it would be more satisfying a little thicker. Overall, a very nice drop.

Bold red colour. Strong aroma of malt and caramel. Flavour consists mainly of malt sweetness. Texture is rich and smooth.

Bottle sampled. Pours a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of caramel, molasses, dark fruits, and toasted malts. Flavor is moderately sweet and full bodied with toffee, caramel, brown sugar, and a hint of raisins with a clean and crisp finish
