Paulaner (Salvator) Double Bock, "Jay's Beer Review"

[sector69102]

Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier is my favorite German Beer ;)

[jjrudy41]

@sector69102 still one of mine as well...

[tbreebo]

[jjrudy41]

@tbreebo i have had the weihenstephaner dunkle weiss, but not the tucher dunkle... of the 2 ive had. id say they dont taste similiar, and as far as which one i like better... touch pick. there both great beers...but im gonna go with the weinstephaner.

@jjrudy41 Hey I am doing the same right now and I tell you it is real good! Hey if you don't mind can you do a review of Trappist Westvleteren 12 I seen it on BA and it has a real good review so can you get back at me when you do a video? Thank you.

[jjrudy41]

@Looneytycoon408 well two things... number one, that beer is almost imposable to get... and number 2.. i already reviewed it ;) check it out and i hope you enjoy...

The Salvator is the original of the style,brewed as an ale. In fact,it says "ale" on the label. But yeah,it's sweet,malty creamy smooth on the tongue. But then I got the spicy Haulertau bittering on the back of my tongue. It's better around 50F to get a lil more aroma/taste. I love how they craft this beer. It does sort of remind me of the malt-forward English ales. IMO,a good turkey day brew.

[jjrudy41]

@unionrdr yeah this is one great beer... interesting that in todays sence a boch is traditioanlly brewed like a lager, but a bock use to be brewed like ales.. i missed that this said ale on the label. so the fact that they made a boch i the orifginal style is pretty cool... cheers

[mattyslicks]

Hey Jay I love this beer as well...... If you Like this beer you should try the ayinger celebrator is delicious!

[jjrudy41]

@mattyslicks i plan on trying that real soon.

[Adol666]

@jjrudy41 I dont know if youve tryed it yet but its really good. Spendy but worth it

[jjrudy41]

@Adol666 did you see my home page??? it is on my coming soon video list... you will have to wait just a few more days to see what i thought of it... that video is going u probably monday feb 28th....

[cagwa]

It's my favorite beer, along with Celebrator. Gotta love the kick a Doppelbock has.

[jjrudy41]

@cagwa you know what. i never had the celebrator... maybe sometime soon i will.

[booster330]

hes like turtle from entourage..

[jjrudy41]

@booster330 never saw the show.

[preferhomebrew]

Just now trying for the 1st time and you nailed the smell. It is like a caramel apple. I never even thought of it while I was smelling it but you are right.

Also agree similiar to an Octoberfest. I would rate it excellent on your scale.

The alcohol did warm you as is went down. I finished the first 1/2 and having the rest with spaghetti. Yum!

They have now changed their bottles to a regular brown color. Much better to protect the beer and looks a lot better too.

Cheers!

[jjrudy41]

@preferhomebrew its been so long since i had this i forgot what i rated this, but i remember thinking this was a great beer. i plan on getting some of this again very soon. your description are spot on. i think mine was in a brown bottle. what did they use to come in?

[JoeHell67]

Why-n-Stef-ahh-ner (ahh = when the doc checks your throat, he says 'make ahh..')

LOL! Anyway... just relax and enjoy the beer!

[jjrudy41]

i pronounce it ...wine steph on er.. even thought i know its said more like... ven staph ner...

[JoeHell67]

Hi,

a very good review, you mentioned some very good facts!

The 'Salvator' Double Bock is NOT a Hefe Weissbeer!

Technical it's a very strong Lager (or Maerzen) that is brewed with dark barley malts and less water to reach a higher alcohol content.

'Paulaner Salvator' is the oldest Bockbeer in the world and the name 'Salvator' was pantented by the Paulaner Brewery in 1896

You're right, it's a seasonal beer and in Germany we have special festivals dedicated to these beers.

Joe from Germany

[jjrudy41]

i love the salvator, your right its very maezen like. glad you like the review.

[jjrudy41]

yeah i know i don't say it right. thanks for the help, but im still not sure i would be staying it right..

v-hin-shit-fur-ner???

[jonathonpower6666]

hey ! youngs double chocolate is my favorite beer too... and samuel smiths oatmeal is about to arrive to my country so ill taste it... but for a higher alcohol i love bocks... and this dopplebock is great

[jjrudy41]

i guess we have similar taste then.... your going to love the oatmeal. i think.

[jjrudy41]

who hoo 100 views

[jjrudy41]

this beer was great. go get one...

[Imasofat]

You should put a pad lock on your fridge. It's like a treasure chest! good review.

[jjrudy41]

good idea hahaha... i just put duck tape. i hope that works.

[jjrudy41]

yeah i heard that one is good. i'm saving it, because i'm expecting a german boot in the mail sometime soon. so you will see the review on it very soon.

[BeerExpedition]

Great review, I just had this one not to log ago, I liked it alot too.

[jjrudy41]

thanks.

[Chad9976]

Yeah I like toffee and caramel if they're intense. A lot of Oktoberfestbiers have those flavors, but they're weak.

[jjrudy41]

tis was vey tasty.

[Chad9976]

I'll have to re-review the Sam Adams Double Bock. Maybe a fresh bottle would taste similiar to this

[jjrudy41]

doubt it. paulaners is a wheat, but i will know just to compare.

[DenisLD]

Haha, what a coincidence! I kind of chose it the same way as you did - just randomly out of the beers I had. Good review, it was also interesting to see the beers in your fridge!

[jjrudy41]

tell me abut it. thanks. I always try to do something different.
