I didn't do this quest (I'm assuming your in the Red Dragon's dungeon) until after I emerged from the underdark, so Minsc was around level 12 or 13 when I did this. I simply gave him a cleric staff plus 3 (remember some golems are only hurt with blunt weapons) and sent him near the doorway to beat on him. Now Minsc had a ring of regen, as well as an AC of -5 which helped a bunch, as well as a belt of strength that boosted his str to 23 or so. Everytime he hit, he only hit for 2, and when he criticaled, he only hit for 4, so this battle took a while, but just have your healers ready and he'll take him down soon enough. Be prepared for this later on, because in the last chapter you face 2 or 3 of them, and you don't have the luxury of them not being able to get through a door. I haven't tried this myself, but Adamantite disintegrates when hit by light, maybe a priest undead (light) spell would work, like sunray or something. Just a thought.
