Salvator 2000 Toasts The New Millennium
2000 3-liter glass bottles released
August, 1999Paulaner Brewery, Munich's number one beer producer, announced today the production of a limited quantity of Salvator 2000, the world-famous dopplebock that established the Paulaner brewery in the 17th Century.
Salvator 2000 will be bottled in a special three-liter black glass bottle and packaged in hand labeled, individually numbered wooden boxes. Only 2000 of the special packages will be created and available in the United States in the fall of 1999.
"There is no better way to celebrate the millennium than with one of the best beers of the millennium," said Jeff Coleman, president of PNA. "Salvator 2000 is the perfect collector's item to celebrate and remember the last century."
Salvator, meaning "our savior", was the first beer brewed by the Paulaner monks when they started the Paulaner Brewery in 1634.
"Instead of tired old champagne, why not toast the next millennium with Salvator 2000, one of the world's finest brews?", added Coleman. "With a full and creamy head and smoky nose accompanied by accents of Hallertau hops, Salvator 2000's red brown body is very rich, full, hearty, yet superbly balanced. The beer finishes remarkably dry for its strength (7.5 alcohol by volume), making it incredibly drinkable."
Paulaner, as well as Fuller's, Hacker-Pschorr, and Brasserie LeFebvre are imported by Englewood, CO based Paulaner North America. Phone them at 303/792-3242.
