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.

Helder donkergeel bier met schuim wat niet erg lang blijft staan. Smaak is bitter hoppig met een goede bitterheid en verfrissend. Een heel degelijk bier.

Bottle. Bier Huis Ossett. Clear straw colour. Very decent lasting white foam. Light dry grain. Touch of yeasty bread. Light grassy leafy hop. Taste has a modicum of sweetness and nicely green zingy bitterness. Light and smashable with a good level of burp inducing carbonation. Lean bitter finish. Great logger bier.

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.
