Paulaner Salvator Doppelbock

This bottom fermented doppelbock with a gleaming copper colour is a very traditional style and has been brewed in almost the same way since the end of the 18th century. It combines delicate hops and dark barley malt to a strong characteristically malty taste.

Established in Munich in the early 17th century by the Paulaner monks, the Paulaner Salvator Thomasbraeu caused quite a splash with its first beer. A strong bock called Salvator, it was so delicious and successful that other local breweries wrote to the council asking for them to restrict its sale to save others from closing. That letter is the first documented mention of the brewer upon Nockherberg Mountain in central Munich. Since then, they've produced many other sought after beers in accordance with the German purity law. Among them their bubblegum and clove-like weissbier is the most popular in Germany, while their helles is a stunning example of the style.
