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’.

A dark chocolate brown beer and a strong beige head. A clean malty nose with a slight metallic finish. A dry bitter flavour of malt and caramel sweetness.

30.01.2004, 0,5l Bottle. Dark brown colour. This beer tastes both bock and weissbier. Aroma is a little weker than you should expect. The beer tastes good and there is a realy nice bitterness in the after.

Pint+.9 Bottle: Pour wasnt very exciting. Head went away, no lacing and kinda carby. Some floaters bouncing around which kinda weirded me out at first. Overall drinkage is flat and water. Taste is average for a WheatDunkle. Some smokey malt, brown sugar, little caramel. Raisins, and even a little banana. Taste and texture warmed up to me a few sips in to where I could enjoy it more. Retains its flat and carby texture though.

Dark brown color with thick creamy head. Had a sweet aroma with hints of caramel and chocolate. Had a nice nutty sweet finish to it. Pretty damn good.

Pours medium to light brown with off-white head. Nose is somewhat tame compared to other Hefe-Weizens I’ve sampled recently, whether dunkel or not. Palate offers a medium malty flavor with brown bread, light baking spices, and a faint suggestion of cookie dough. Finish is medium short with more cookie dough.

(Sample from September 29, 2006 Beer Club Meeting; 500ml bottle, last on July 12, 2008) Quick drink before going out… looks great in the glass, a lovely dark brown color. Light and sweet, but less sweet than many of the lighter Weissbiers. More heavy, malty and minerally. Honestly, I think of this beer and I think "lunch". Goes great with a bag lunch, ham & cheese, etc. Yummy!

Pours brown with large, foamy tan head. Nose is toasted malt, wheat, molasses. The flavor is rather musty, spicy with almost a peppery note, overlying banana, and chocolate. Rather sweet. Finish is somehow tongue coating. Not bad stuff.
