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’.

500 mL Bottle. Rich black coffee-like body with a 2 finger rocky tan head leaving good lace. Aroma of plums, raisin pie, floral, and grains. Flavor is dark ripe fruits with sweet and toasted malts and grains. Caramel and banana come through in the aftertaste followed by a hint of brown sugar and an innuendo of spices in the finish. Carbonation a bit heavy-handed.

Bottle - 500ml. Pours a cloudy dark brown body with low carbonation and a huge beige frothy head. Fair malty/hoppy aroma with yeasty and brown sugar hints. Taste is well balanced but it lacks complexity and strength. Ends with a decent bittersweet, yeasty finish. Classic Dunkelweizen.

Pours murky brown with a large but quickly dissipating head. Nose shows ripe banana, spicy noble hops, wheat and some darker (toasted) grains. Flavours consist of toasted grains, some caramel, banana, more noble hops, wheat, some alcohol, followed by a very light bitterness. Refreshing light body, but carbonation is over the top! Very easy to drink.

I found this in the back of my beer cooler and was in need of something dark. Unfortunately, this wasn’t exactly it. In appearance I’ve got an off white dark beer. Medium in body for what I was expecting. Despite the lighter body it is balanced with a short finish. Tomorrow, I may not remember what I drank. Definitely average.

A little light for my tastes, but not bad overall. Minimal weight and staying power for such a dark colored beer.

500 ml bottle from LCBO. Pours an opaque dark brown with a hint of red and small, soapy tan head. Mild aroma with roast and toffee notes. Flavour oflight roast malt, sweet toffee and grains. Lively, fine carbonation. Not much finish. Decent, but somewhat pedestrian.
