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’.

Dark brown, light beige foamy head. Sourish apple sauce aroma, little roasted malts and rust. Flavor is softly roasted and wheaty with little coffee and cocoa. Smoooth. Medium bodied, a bit spritzy carbonation. Very schwartzbier like dunkelweizen, I like that roastiness.

I love dunkelweiss! This is a style that isn’t done often enough. Like a normal German weiss with just a touch of malty sweetness. Very refreshing.

When held up to a light this beer is a dark ruby. Personally I think it looks great, but the aroma and taste did not impress me as much. Not much to keep the palate entertained. Pretty straight forward all the way through. the sweetness is the only thing that works for me.

Pours cloudy reddish brown. The aroma is cream, roasty dark malts, and a small amount of typical hefe mixed with a dash of metal. The aroma reminds me a bit of a schwarzbier. The flavor is sweet malt, a bit of metal, and a little hefe but not much.

Very big tan head, cloudy dark brown colour. The aroma is very clean, malts and hops and roasted malts too. Flavour is roasted a bit acidic and hoppier than most german weisses. Mouthfeel is crisp with medium bubbles. To me this was a very good weissbier, not exceptional like weihenstephaner, but still very good.

Pours a very dark brown, with cloudy opaqueness, and a dark tan head. Distinct citrus and malt aromas. A slight coffee taste, good amount of toffee and rye which lingers in the aftertaste. A little more carbonation than other weißbiers. Lingering froth on the top of the beer, and a bit of lace.

Tap. Good dunkelweizen. Aroma is roasted malt, cola, and some grain. Flavour has good length, and it’s sweet. The palate is thin and oily. Dark brown in colour, with average-sized frothy head.
