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.

Copper/orange color, normal head. Aroma is fruity and also there is some kind of candy. Has a somewhat strange falvor, and I dont like this one the way many other seem to do.

This must be one of the best looking beers I ever had. Nice reddish colour with fine off white head. Aroma is malty with lots of bread and some alcohol, it smells strong. Flavor is malty with hints of leather. Some alcohol in the finish.

Radek Kliber (5171) - Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), POLAND - OCT 22, 2002
Cold fall in Ontario, I am a bit sick my self ... Well this is my number 600. Nice clear amber color with white thick head that sadly did not lasted to long. Aroma of sweet cherry wood with addition of raspberry. Nice and warming. Warming and intense flavours. Alcohol blended well with caramel, creamy, a bit nutty. Nice for cold windy fall season.

Ernest (5116) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - JUL 26, 2002
UPDATED: JAN 3, 2011 Bottle. Head is initially small, frothy, light brown, mostly diminishing. Body is medium amber. Aroma is moderately malty (malt syrup, molasses, bread). Flavor is heavily sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is moderately sweet, lightly to moderately bitter. Medium to full body, syrupy texture, lively carbonation, lightly to moderately alcoholic. One-dimensional, too syrupy sweet, and very dull. Never had a good sample of this.

Hildigöltur (5107) - København, DENMARK - NOV 18, 2002
UPDATED: SEP 29, 2004 The colour is surprisingly light but still very fine with a quite big head. Loads of malt in aroma and flavour. Woody and bitter finish. A great and classic Doppelbock.

Dickinsonbeer (5077) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - AUG 27, 2002
Nice deep red with small beige head. Smells of toasted and caramel malts. No alcohol in aroma or taste. Smooth and easy to drink for such a strong beer. Im concerned about the label however- says ale on the top right hand corner- whats the deal? Whatever-very good for a doppelbock.

jbrus (4989) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - JAN 16, 2006
UPDATED: SEP 29, 2007 Bottled. Alcoholic aroma, apple, malty. Dark amber color, beige almost creamy head, very nice lace. Sweet, light bitter to pretty herbal bitter in the finish, apple, alcoholic, very sticky, soft. Pretty standard bock in the non-roasted style.

JPDIPSO (4957) - Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA - AUG 26, 2002
Brilliantly clear, light amber color (actually lighter in color tan I remember). Lasting rocky light tan head. Aromas of malt, toffee malt and caramel malt - outstanding aroma - coming from a recovering hophead. Smooth as it floats over the tongue. Sweet malt flavors everywhere. Also light flavors of currants and chocolate. Finishs relatively dry with a slight EToH kick. A relatively mild doppel, but very clean and refreshing.
