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’.

Bottle from Brewery Creek poured into a Schneider Flaschengarung. Clear mahogany brown with good carbonation and a two-finger, cappuccino head. Moderate clove and banana nose with vanilla and bready malt. Low banana and clove flavor with moderate vanilla, caramel, and some breadiness; medium malty richness; low hop bitterness; slightly sweet palate with low tart citrus and relatively dry finish. A good example of a classic Dunkelweizen.

Another beer that can be included in the ’serious session’ list. Breaks up the lager and placed right can really prolong your drinking over a night.

Smooth, rich, not much bite. Caramel and chocolate but somehow not real sweet. Excellent with food as it doesn’t overwhelm. Really nice finish.

Bottle. Very dark in color with a good, fluffy off-white head. Good lacing on glass. Aroma of dark malted wheat along with the banana and clove. Very good flavor of dark wheat and banana. Very tasty dunkel weiss.

Loved this beer. A little strong and acidic but great taste. You can feel the alcohol and the carbonation is great.

Dark color, strong head. It contains to much roasted malt, the roasted taste dominate the beer, the acidic and banana taste waste away. At the second rate: Now i had a moaderated sample with a moderated design(the label is not a black one, it is a friendly brown one) and i must update my rate... The taste is moderated too, the dunkel character is easier than before. Better, really good one. Complex and fine body, smooth mouthfeel. Fine roasted malt, banana and spicy taste, clove and vanilla, some cinnamon.Yumm, really fine!!!

Bottle pours dark with a large tan head. Smells of coffee and has a roasted aroma, sweet taste with a nice dark wheat flavor.

A dark brown beer with hints of red in the pour and a small off-white head. The aroma is of malt and some fruitiness, maybe apple. the flavor is also malty with some burnt notes and roast barley hints like coffee and chocolate. A very dark wheat beer!
