Dominion Lager

Dulles. I thought I rated this the other day but I guess I forgot. Really good lager, very tasty, low bitterness so V liked it. Win.

Bottle (12oz) shared with HogTownHarry & garthicus -- c/o garthicus. Pours a slightly hazy orange-copper with a small diminishing white head. Aroma’s grainy and a bit bready along with caramel malt. Slightly watery flavour, some hops in there, grain, caramel malt and a bit vegetal. Average bodied. Not bad, it’s O.K.

bottled, clear golden color w/ quickly disappearing head. strong malt aroma, the body is thin w/ dry finish.

12oz bottle @ 1st Annual RocketCity Brewfest, Huntsville, AL. Clear amber. Bready aroma. Flavor of pale malts. Nice hop bitterness. Overall, it’s just too boring. 08 may 09

12oz bottle. Pours a cloudy gold with a medium white head. Malty lager aroma. Malty and yeasty flavor with some hop in the finish.

Tap at the Dulles location. Pours clear copper with a large off-white head. It generated Belgian lacing. Aroma of caramel. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is lightly roasted caramel with veggy/grassy hop. Perhaps a tad sweet, but not very. There’s certainly enough hop to keep a balance. Finishes towards dry, and bitter persists into the finish. Goes a bit creamy over time. Take this over any macro or yellow pale lager.

Overall Impression: These guys make a pretty decent lager. Relatively standard, but well done brew, with the malty caramel flavors you might expect from this style.

Bottle. Poured cloudy darkish gold. Nose of caramel, bready malt, light yeast. Taste is similar, with a nice and refreshing malt & grain flavor. Mouth is medium bodied and pretty well carbonated. Overall, a nice lager.
