Commercial Description:
Dominion Blonde or Light is a clean, crisp, straw colored beer with remarkable flavor for a light beer. Whereas we use about 1,200 pounds of malted barley to make Dominion lager, we use only 950 pounds of Two-Row Pale, Munich and Carapils malts for a batch of Dominion Blonde. Less malt means less sugar for the yeast and consequently less alcohol in the beer. We use only German Hallertau hops. This beer is featured at the Thirsty Dog in Baltimore and Murphy's Pub in Arlington.

Clear yellow ale. Very weak nose and flavor. Thin and watery with whispers of butterscotch, straw and cream. Very light-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Crisp, clean finish.

Light yellow color. Small head. I've seen and had better blondes then this. Light bodies. Some malt. Pretty watered down and smooth. Other than that, nothing much to speak of. On tap at the Brew Pub in Ashburn, VA.

Light piss yellow. Nose empty, bit sweet. Harsh, nasty flavor, foul, bready, and bitter in a bad way.

Crystal clear golden coloured body with a super-thin white head. Aroma of just about nothing, a small metallic twang-but thats it! Super-light-bodied; Very light maltiness and a small citrus nuance. Aftertaste super clean and super light. Overall, a good beer if you want not to taste anything! I sampled this on Draught at Old Dominion Brewery in Ashburn, Virginia on 30-December-2003.

Being a completist I got this with my flight of samples. Clear straw colored. Faint malt aroma. Thin watery body with typical "light" beer flavors. Hey I tried it, but I did not like it.
