Paulaner Salvator
The house doppelbock, unfiltered and brewed to a handed-down recipe, and the beer that set the pattern for German strong beers whose names end in -ator. It is chestnut brown, the head caramel-coloured with a faint reddish cast. Chocolate sits over full malt sweetness and caramel in the nose. Soft on the first sip, it develops a warming, intense and full-bodied character rounded off by a light hop note. Brewed from barley malt at 18.3 degrees Plato.

What is a Doppelbock?
Bocks are strong German lagers with 6.5–7.5% ABV. Rich malt sweetness — toast, chocolate, caramel — with low bitterness and a warming finish.
Finding a similar Doppelbock
