COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
ERDINGER Urweisse – in good old Bavarian tradition
A cause for celebration among weissbier fans!
A particularly strong, spicy aroma, a distinctive yeast flavor and an unmistakable top-fermenting beer profile - these are the characteristics of ERDINGER’s new family member in good old Bavarian tradition. The recipe for Urweisse dates back to the brewery’s founding days over 120 years ago. It owes its distinctive, traditional weissbier flavor to a special malt, a different hop variety and a special yeast.
And as appearance is just as important, Urweisse has been given its own special look - which will especially please all friends of the "good old Bavarian tradition". The label features the historic "Beautiful Tower" of Erding. The Euro bottle and original glass awake memories of days gone by. The new crate is also particularly eye-catching with its historic wooden look and "scorched" lettering.
Best is to simply taste it for yourself! ERDINGER Urweisse is available in Bavaria from January 1, 2008 and from February 1 in Baden-Württemberg. Presentation cartons are available in the ERDINGER Fan Shop from January onward.

Erdinger Urweisse 5.2% Bottle. [Tasting @ Papsoe 20-10-2008] Large creamy off-white head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Cloudy orange golden color.

Moderated sweet flavor with hint of what could appear as bitter and acidic notes. Average to long duration finish with notes of fruit, spice, banana. Quite nice and very tasty!

Maria (8586) - Thisted, DENMARK - OCT 16, 2008
It’s hazy, orange-golden with a huge, white and creamy head. The aroma has notes of wheat, light clove and banana. The flavour has a light sweetness and light notes of banana, wheat and clove. It’s like the other Erdinger weiss biere a bit weak, but it does have a little stronger notes than the rest.

Allen (2469) - SWITZERLAND - AUG 29, 2008
Bottled 50cl. It pours a hazy orange beer with a tall white head - average head retention. Strong nose with banana dominating. Sweet taste. Banana and cloves showing up. Some carrot sneaking in. Medium bodied. Rather pleasant and highly refreshing. Decent lacework. Some mint in the finish. Nicely balanced. Bready, citrusy. One of the best beers from Erdinger. Good!
