Poured a lush cloudy mahogany red with a big frothy off-white meringue cap. Light but steady effervescence. Aromas of dried fruits currants, prunes mingle with cinnamon and cloves....wonderful nose on this beer. Starts bold with a wack of sweet toasty malt then builds to a creamy mouth feel punctuated with subtle banana, spices and other ester tastes as malts and yeasts mingle on the tongue. Then the finish is fairly clean for such a dark beer.....wet with little more than a sweet malt after taste. This is a good import beer and a very drinkable representastion of the dunkelweizen style . I like it and will always have a bottle or two around.

Aroma is light cloves and bananas, same for the taste, also lightly malty. Very foamy and smooth, nice mouthfeel. It’s not my favourite Dunkelweizen, but it’s pretty good and goes down well.

Spicy aroma of dark bread, with a hint of banana. Taste is rich and chewy, and starts quite malty, and surprisingly bitter for a weizen. Starts moderately bitter, slightly sweet, and moderately acidic. Dense carbonation with a slightly heavy mouthfeel. Well balanced, but a bit too mellow to be an excellent example of the style. subcell (95), Portsmouth, Virginia, USA

Erdinger just keeps getting the carbonation right when it’s not a bottle. A nice dark wheat beer with a "come hitheto" aroma. Fine balance of wheat malt, lop hop, banana, clove, woody and vanilla flavours. Slight bitterness on account of the roast. In return, there is a nutty complexion. However, easy on the palate. Light to medium body. Fantastic with grilled meats and rich food. Value for money. Opt for draught/tap whenever and wherever possible. bulldogops (158), Alberta, Canada

Pour is a dark brown with a fairly frothy beige head (aggressive pour?) with little retention. Aroma is very malty, with wheat and hoppy aromas faintly present. Taste is smooth, malty, and very thick. Really pleasant finish, I can’t wait to order it again.
