COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Premium Weissbier at the top of its class. Not only in the context of the Erdinger assortment Erdinger Weissbier with fine yeast applies undisputed as the classical authors, as the white beer absolutely. It is brewed with fine yeast after a delivered prescription and naturally strictly after the Bavarian purity requirement. Today still without the traditional bottle fermentation one does not do here: Three to four weeks it lasts, until the Erdinger Weissbier with fine yeast matured. For the production only finest raw materials are used. Experience of many years and constant quality controls guarantee beyond that the unmistakable taste. A Weissbier for all, those the unforgettable good taste love.

fonefan (25125) - VestJylland, DENMARK - AUG 3, 2006
Bottled. Cloudy, carbonating, orange beer with big creamy head. Weak aroma, with ripe bananas, cloves, some citrus and yeast. A bit thin in the mouth, with spices, yeast, citrus and some wheat in the flavor. Could use a bit "more of everything". Long spiced finish with some bitterness but nice refreshing.

A yellow unclear beer with a good head. It has an aroma of yeast so commen with wheatbeers. The flavor is that of yeast with a slightly bitterness that lingers. It doesn’t have the fruityness that most wheat beers have - which makes the flavor tame.

Papsoe (22983) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - JUN 2, 2005
(Bottle 50 cl) Very carbonated, this beer makes it way out of the bottle by itself. Hazy, dark golden. Very soft, less spicy and fruity than most other Hefeweizens. Apparently this starts off with a topfermenting yeast and is then refermented with a lager yeast? Maybe that’s what makes it less wheaty. 170100

oh6gdx (16047) - Vasa, FINLAND - FEB 8, 2005
Bottled. Yellow and cloudy. Huge white head. Citrus and other fruits in the aroma. Taste is mainly sweet and fruity and very mild. Lacks taste and sting in my opionion, there are better Weissbier Hefe’s around.

omhper (15964) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAR 3, 2002
Dark yellow, hazy. Fruity aroma, but where is the esters? Medium bodied, rather thirst quenching, but one-dimensional and with an industrial feeling to it. Having tried perhaps 50 or so German brands of hefeweizen, I must say this is the least delicious of the bunch.

joergen (14992) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAR 1, 2006
Bottle. Hazy yellow coloured with a white head. Aroma of fruits spices and yast. Watery flavour with notes of fruits and spices. Fizzy palate. Boring and overrated !

UPDATED: DEC 31, 2004 Big white head, cloudy dark yellow beer. Nice mouthfeel, bland taste. Slightly sweet flavour with little wheat character.
