Erdinger Dunkel

In Germany and German speaking countries, Christmas celebrations normally are held on Christmas Eve rather than Christmas Day. In Salzburg, this especially holds true and I ended up with a glass of Erdinger Dunkel in my hands at the bar of the Sheraton Hotel.

Erdinger is basically the megaswill of the wheat world and as such must be treated with the suspicion that is to be afforded all megaswill's!

Anyhow, moving along from the sillyness, it's ok and probably a tad nicer than the regular Erdinger. Website

At this point I should also mention that the beer was a good one for Christmas and was no where near as creepy as the voice of the guy that runs the "Sound of Music Tour". What makes it even worse is that it was the second time I had been on the said musical tour - scary......
