Commercial Description:
Bottle conditioned.
Ingredients: Water; wheat malt; barley malt; roasted malt; hops; yeast.
A wheat beer from the good old days.
Erdinger Weissbier ’dark’ is a rich and smooth wheat beer specialty from Erdinger Weissbräu. It owes its full-bodied flavor to the fine hops and dark malt used in its production.
The dark beer specialty is brewed according to an age-old recipe. Its spicy flavor also results from the increased proportion (about 13%) of original wort. Nonetheless, at 5.6%, it doesn’t contain much more alcohol than Erdinger Weissbier ’with fine yeast’.

Bottle: Poured a clear dark dunkel with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light roasted malt with light caramel and light banana aftertaste. Taste is mostly dominated by some roasted malt with a light bitter finish and some light fruity notes also noticeable. Average body with good carbonation. OK but again a style that really doesn’t appeal to me that much.

Dark brown with light brown head. Smell of light smoke and sweets, some banana. Taste kicks off with some yeast and lemon, then moves to smoke and rests in a roasted bread finish. Nice. Very foamy, medium fill to the palate.

Partagé avec Agaguk. Acheté à la LCBO sur king-edward et dégusté dans un verre de weizen. Une bière noir au reflet intense de caramel cuivré légèrement rougeâtre. Une odeur d’alcool au cerise, de caramel, de pain et de crême. Un goût de céréale au chocolat avec un bon équilibre. Légèrement houblonné et poivré. Une bonne bière.

Bottle. A murky, very dark brown with a very full and lasting, fluffy beige head; sticky, scattered lacing. Delicate chocolate and banana aromas. Clean and smooth mouthfeel after the initial fizziness subsides. A liquorice and alcohol flavour profile. Sweet and refreshing, without much in the way of a noticeable wheat taste. A crisp and hoppy bitter finish, though short.

Bottle. Murky brown colour with rapidly thinning beige head. Little aroma or, for that matter, flavour. A little sweet and a decent light palate. Uncomplicated beer. Not great, not bad.

Bottled. Dark brown with large beige head. Caramel, wheat and banana aroma and taste. Good carbonation with a lingering bitterness in the finish.
