The first steamboat on the Ottawa River was the sidewheel paddle-steamer Lady Colborne. Starting in 1832, this 100 foot long passenger steamer worked on the Ottawa between Aylmer and Fitzroy four times a week in each direction, for the seven months that the river was open each year. Dampfbier (German for steam beer), is a rare centuries-old style, and was traditionally known as a beer for the common folk. Brewed with German weizen yeast, this all malt brew has hints of clove and a mild hop finish. We first brewed this beer in 2016 as part of our Staff Pick program. It was originally introduced as Staff Pick # 4 - Dartmouth Common

    Lightly hazy, golden colour with a big creamy slightly warm off-white head, good retention, leaving some small patches of lacing. Getting some banana in the nose, so maybe lots of wheat in here. Also, citrus notes from the hops, over a caramel malt base. Again, wheat in the taste, but not too rich, as cut down by some decent hops that give it a dry finish. Hints of spices. Not a bad beer, but not like the steam beers I have had before.
