Commercial Description:
Dominion Ale is brewed in an English style with American Two-Row Pale, Caramel, and Black malts. We use Perle, Willamette, and Mount Hood hops from the Pacific Northwest and English Kent Golding Hops. We ferment our ale with a traditional American yeast in the German Kolsch style - warm, fast fermentation followed by a slow maturation. Dominion Ale is malty with an assertive hop character dominated by the Kent Golding. It is crystal clear amber colored with medium body. Widely available in bottles and on draft, often as a house brand name.

Bottle. Pours a clear copper hued amber with a thin white head. Nice biscuit and malt profile, a touch of toast. Medium bodied, velvety. Caramel flavors, a bit sweet with some biscuit and grain. Finishes up with some dry grainy bitterness.

(12 ounce bottle - pint glass) Aroma is malty. Taste is a balance between malt and hops leaning toward the malty side. Mouthfeel in my opinion has a perfect amount of carbonation. Has a short lightly hoppy bitter finish. Overall it makes a good session beer.

A smooth experience overall, but it doesn’t stand out. It’s somewhat bland, although non-offensive.

Pours copper with a tan head. Smells of sweet malt, earthy, some tea. Tastes sweet and peppery with an earthy finish.

Tap at the Dulles location. Pours a very dark copper with a creamy/frothy near white head. Aroma seems dusty. Near medium body with smooth, bubbly carbonation. Not really all that bitter, but definitely tasty. Theres enough hop tobalance the light roast malt. It truly brings to mind AB American Ale. Finishes lightly fruity. Better than many.

Overall Impression: A nice tasty ale with a decent balance between the hops and the malts, leaning toward the malty side.
