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’.

Bouteille de 500 ml, acheté au LCBO de Rideau et King Edward à Ottawa le 29 novembre 2008. Brune foncée vaseuse, petit collet. Arome légé de malte épicé et un peu torifié. Goût de malte chocolaté faible et un petit peu amère, plutôt aqueuse. Plutôt décevent!

Dark brown in color with a small light tan head. Aroma of light banana esters, some chocolate, wheat, and some light spices. Taste: chocolate, lightly estery, lightly spicy. Light to medium bodied- texture is somewhat watery.

500ml bottle: Beautiful coffee colour with dissipating fizzy brown head. Lively carbonation. Toasty notes in the nose with dark chocolate. More of the same in the flavour along with hints of licorice and banana; wheat being almost absent. Medium-bodied with a pleasant dry end.

Mild flavors of toasty dark barley, some biscut, some clove, a little mild hoppiness. Overall I always find this a little bland.

Hazy dark brown pour with a fluffy long lasting head. Aroma of fruit, yeast, roasted grain, chocolate and caramel malts. Nice fruity, roasty flavor as well. Nicely carbonated and smooth on the palate. Just a hint of spicy hops on the finish. A pretty good brew.

Dark brown cloudy fluid with a fluffy off white head. Nose of yeasty fruits and caramel. Likewise for the flavour with a satisfying full bodied carbonated mouthfeel. Hint of vanilla in the finish. You would probably feel quite full after a few of these.

Bottle from Crown. Dark brown pour, nice fluffy head. Aroma is full of wheat, yeast, dried fruit and maybe some really dark caramel notes. Flavor is yeasty, fruity, a hint of spice, and has a great mouthfeel.
