Commercial Description:
DOMINION GOLDEN LAGER is mild, smooth beer brewed in the German Export Style. This means a golden Munich-style beer. When we started making this beer in 1992, when it was called Helles, it was much paler in color. We made the beer darker by adding more roasted malt. Now its color is slightly darker in color.

(draft) Clear apple juice body with white head. Aroma is quite mild, slightly grassy. Taste is medium sweet, grassy, apple, light honey. Light body.

Poured amber in color with a small head. Sweet and mild hoppy smelling. Tastes like the smells (malts and light a fruity taste). This beer did nothing for me and I would pass on it in the future.

Sparkling clear, deep golden lager. Nice, crisp hoppy aroma with light notes of cream and toffee. The flavor is a touch vineous and very dry. Light-bodied with fizzy carbonation. Short, dry, astringent finish.

On draft at the brewery, 9/1/05: Malt-cerealy and bright yellow. Nice full body. Good lager and the favorite among my compatriots.

In the bottle. Rich deep gold color with a rapidly disappearing head. Aroma not quite what I need in comparison to its German cousins- I just don’t get that bready malty smell. The bite of the tongue is not just hops, this is sort of astringent, but not in a bad way. An OK beer.

Crystal clear-light amber colour with an almost non-existant head. Aroma of caramel, malt, light sweetness and a subtle metal aroma. Light-bodied; Sweet fruity character up front with a prolonged super light maltiness. Aftertaste clean with nothing showing. Overall, a decent light lager-not too flavourful, but good! I sampled this on Draught at Old Dominion Brewery in Ashburn, Virginia on 30-December-2003.

Light gold. Nose very sweet and sugary, slight fruitiness, a bit like strawberry taffy. Taste is harsh and off-bitter, slightly fruity. Nasty palate, an unpleasant viscousness that I tend to associate with spit. Quite forgettable.

Clear straw color with a minimal white head. Aroma is sweet and a bit metallic. Flavor is Bready malt and not that great, what do you expect for the style? Body is thin and has tingly carbonation.
