COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Erdinger Champ is the ideal lifestyle wheat beer: it’s brewed in such a way that it can be drunk straight from the bottle, but without compromising Erdinger’s legendary flavor and high quality standards. The 0.33-liter longneck bottle with its unique opening mechanism emphasizes the lifestyle character of the new beer. In addition to its twist-open cap, the innovative bottle also features an integrated opener on the bottom for extra convenience. Simply place one Erdinger Champ on top of another to twist open the bottom bottle. As you can see, it’s always best to order two bottles and enjoy Erdinger Champ in company! With its fine yeast, Erdinger Champ has the character of a classic Bavarian wheat beer. The yeast gives the beer is natural, slightly cloudy appearance. Erdinger Champ - pure wheat beer enjoyment straight from the bottle.

cerveja de trigo da Erdinger feito para ser tomado direto da garrafa. Praticamente igual ao da garrafa maior - tenho que tomar as duas ao mesmo tempo para ter uma boa impressão. Bem, quase sem cheiro, maltado de trigo. espuma branca e pouco presente. Aparência turva alaranjado. Refrescante e frutada. Um pouco aguada o que faz ser boa para os dias quentes. Gosto de cereais. Boa.

Palme (1437) - Bergen, NORWAY - MAR 19, 2012
0.33l bottle. This is a light milky-glowing-orange-hazy beer with a small heavy sidesticking white head. The aroma is mild wheay with traces of both bubblegum and acidic citrus. It tastes quite alright actually. Light wheaty flavors, with some quite sweet tones and hints of herbs and hay. Average to soft carbonation level and a medium oily mouthfeel. Mild wheaty flavors with a hint of both sour and banana. It’s perhaps a bit dull and not utterly exciting, but it has some what gentle and kind flavors. A OK introduction beer for the unknowners perhaps? 10.03.2012

wlajwl (1806) - Quad Cities, Iowa, USA - MAR 2, 2012
Bread/yeast and citrus/lemons in aroma, although relatively faint. The flavor is lemons, yeast and grainy malts. It was quaffable, but the flavor just wasn’t what it needed to be.

Martinus (873) - Nijmegen, NETHERLANDS - FEB 9, 2012
Slightly hazy pale golden colour, slight white head. Aroma of weizen, light fruity banana, peaches in syrup. Flavour light sour weizen, somewhat sweet, lightly cloying mouth-feel. Easily drinkable, not very flavourful though.

weihenweizen (759) - Charleston Area, West Virginia, USA - FEB 6, 2012
Refrigerated 11.2 oz. bottle poured into a weizen glass. Pours hazy tawny (mostly golden) hazy, chunks of yeast, with white head that dissapates fast. No lacing, medium/light body, low carbonation, and sour aroma. Taste is grainy slightly sour banana. One of the worst german hefeweizens I have had (may have been a little old).

LookMomNoHands (580) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - JAN 27, 2012
0,33 l. bottle from a supermarket in to a weizen glass. Hazy, unclear dark golden colour with a medium sized white head, that fades to a thin cap. Light aroma with banana, citrus and faint hops. Taste is light sweet. Medium body, oily texture and a soft carbonation. Short finish. Lacks against other hefeweizens as far as aroma goes. Refreshing, however.
