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’.

50cl bottle. Best before 2009-04. It poured a dark red-brown colour with a light-brown foamy head that settled down fast in the glass. The aroma is malts and yeast. The flavour is a bit bitter and spicy with notes of malts, dark caramel. It has a short aftertaste.

500 ml bottle, but says 5.5% abv. Pours a hazy black with a decent tan head that slowly fades. Taste is of caramel, chocolate, malt, wheat, yeast, fruit and spice. Similar aroma. Has a good tingley mouthfeel and aftertaste that leaves me wanting more. A little foamy. Smooth, easy to drink, fulfilling and rather enjoyable.

bottle. Poured dark brown with tight bubbled tan head. Aroma is roasty with raison. Highly carbonated thin mouthfeel. Sweet caramel with a bitter chocolate hint and a slight smoke finish. Not overly bitter.

500ml bottle (BeerAngel.de)
Lovely deep brown, large beige head. Not much aroma. Soft carbonation, sweet smooth palate, but heading towards sticky. Taste has pleasant burnt roastiness, with some toffee and a few fruity retronasals. Finish is very pleasantly hopped though. Needs more body, perhaps, or slightly higher attenuation to dry and crispen the palate more. Do not drink too cold, the good stuff comes out as it warms.
