Description
The Dortmunder Union Brewery (DUB) was established in 1873, the first brewmaster was Fritz Brinkhoff (1848-1927), who worked 50 years for the brewery. In 1887, a failed brew was delivered to a customer in Aachen which was a huge success. The Dortmunder Export was born.

In 1994, the Union Brewery took over the Dortmund Ritter Brewery, established in 1889, and renamed itself the Dortmund Union Ritter Brewery. Production was relocated from the city center to the previous production facility of the Ritter brewery on the outskirts in Lütgendortmund. In 2002 the Union-Ritter-Brauerei was renamed the Brinkhoff Brewery, and in 2006 production was relocated to the Dortmunder Actien-Brauerei.

Blik thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Hey is een helder lichtgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een aroma van mout en hop. De smaak is moutig, fris en licht hoppig.

Keg @ No. 46, Church Stretton. Pours a clear bright yellow, white head. Clean, light, gentle sweetness..but tame overall. There are more characterful, sweeter dortmunders out there but it's a nice refresher.

Rocky white head stayed on nicely carbonated clear pale golden coloured body. Grain, metallic & newspaper aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a lively back & cloying aft. Grain, cereal, biscuit & citrus tastes with a bitter finish. Not much taste to this...
