Jun 18, 2006 Golden-amber body with a medium, uniform, off-white head. Pleasant esters and fruity malt aroma with berry tones plus elements of tea, light toast, and soft caramel. Flavor is slightly grainy with moderate sweetness and bitterness. Some fruitiness lends a refreshing quality. A decent, English-style pale ale.

Jun 15, 2006 Poured from a 12oz bottle amber in color with a small beige head. Aroma was of light caramel malts and large quantity of hops. Flavor was mild and somewhat hoppy.

Jun 2, 2006 Another amber ale, that poured with a nice head and a solid amber color. Aorma was slightly hoppy. The flavor was the same with a carmel malt base. Fairly well balanced, but just another amber ale. I won’t return. Stick with Old D’s Oak Barrell Stout.

May 29, 2006 Updated: Jan 21, 2007Light red. Bitter and not much flavor to it. Bland, but not bad. Blacksburg, VA in a bottle.

May 24, 2006 Bottle: Pours a sturdy dark golden hue with a solid foam 1" high top. Odd aroma ... almost like toasted marshmellows (this brings me back to Scout camp!). Similarly weird toasty flavor, earthy, grassy, yeasty. I probably shouldn’t have had this right after a Sierra Pale ... quite the turn, but a good solid ale.

May 15, 2006 Since I live no mare than 5 miles from the brewery I enjoy this beer whenever I can - usually fresh at the brew pub. I can’t remember ever having anything than a great pint. Not as good from the bottle, but close.

Apr 28, 2006 I like to support local breweries and I have to say that this is one of the better ales brewed in VA. The color is a dark gold and the flavor is exactly what you would expect when you look at it. Not too heavy and definitely not light. Goes very well with a nice grilled steak. I very much enjoy this ale with a meal or afterwards when I just want to kick back. Also, it is readily available in almost every location I have visited in the central/northern VA area which is a nice touch. Kudos to the Dominion Brewing Co.
