Borbecker Helles Dampfbier ist eine fast vergessene Spezialität aus der guten alten Zeit, die jetzt wieder fröhliche „Urständ" feiert. Untergärig gebraut nach einem sorgsam gehüteten Rezept der Stern-Brauerei Essen, findet dieses spritzige Qualitätsbier immer mehr Freunde unter den traditionellen Bierkennern und -genießern.

500ml bottle. Clear, yellow-ish, pale golden colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, snow-white head. Slightly grainy, strawy, pale malty aroma, a minimally spicy, bready touch, waxy, leafy hoppy and doughy yeasty overtones. Taste is doughy yeasty, slightly strawy and grainy pale malty, subtle malty spiciness, waxy, leafy and minimally fruity hoppy overtones with diluted hints of apricot. Creamy texture, smooth and soft palate. A bit anaemic, but with rather paradigmatic Dampfbier characteristics; nowadays in danger of extinction (e.g. the bottles of Maisel's Dampfbier in my collection stem from a period between 1989 and 1995).

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle from local 'Trink & Spare' as 'Borbecker Helles', best before April 2018. Clear, pale golden with a thin, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, slightly grassy aroma of grains and some straw. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, watery and a bit grassy taste of mainly grains, some cardboard and a touch of straw, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly grassy and a bit metallic finish. Thin body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Poor, even worse than expected.

500ml Bottle from Essen. Jasny, zlocisty i klarowny kolor, srednia piana, niezbyt trwala. Zapach i aromat wyrazny, pachnie swiezym sianem, zbozem. W smaku w pierwszej chwili zaskakuje lekko kwaskowata nuta, ktora potem szybko ustepuje, potem wyczuwalna trawiastosc. Dosc wyrazne sa to smaki. Na sam koniec delikatna goryczka, ktora sie zaznacza ale nie pozostawia zbyt dlugo tego posmaku w przelyku.
