Paulaner Brauerei
A Munich brewery whose origins lie with the Paulaner friars of the Neudeck ob der Au monastery, first documented brewing in 1634. The monks' strong lenten beer, Salvator, is the house's oldest surviving product and lent its suffix to a whole class of German strong beers. Secularised in the early nineteenth century and merged with the Thomassbräu brewery in 1923, Paulaner is majority-owned by the Schörghuber family and is one of six houses entitled to pour at the Munich Oktoberfest. The range centres on wheat beers and Munich pale lagers.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
Paulaner Hefe-Weißbier Naturtrüb
Their beers place in the Top 41% of the catalogue on average, across 11 ranked beers. One clear standout well ahead of the rest.
