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’.

Pours a hazy dark brown color. Lots of sediment floating about. Big dingy head. Aroma is wheat, spiceiness, and a little malt. Flavor is of roasted malts with a little wheat flavor.

pours dark brown with medium-tan head; relatively light body - color is quite deceiving in this regard. Tastes of standard lager with a somewhat bitter wheat finish. a refreshing change of pace, but nothing that special.

Man their beer pour with huge head. Muddy, murky brown. Caramel, cocoa, plum and vanilla in the aroma. A bit metallic in flavor with just a ghost of the flavors the the aroma displays. Some smoke and leather comes through.A little tart and chalky in the finish. Like the Weiss, better to smell than drink.

The aroma is soft and sour. There is a little bit of caramel and lots of malt. The appearance is dark brown with a large head. The flavor is bread like and has sour and bitter notes but nothing about the flavor is strong. For that matter the palate is the opposite of strong it’s weak. But, overall it does not suffer too much. It could have been better but it’s easy to drink.
