Commercial Description:
Dominion Lager is brewed using four types of malted barley: Two-Row Pale Brewer's malt, Munich, Carapils, and Caramel. The bittering hops are Perle and Hallertau from the Yakima Valley in Washington State. The aromatic hops are domestic Tettnang, German Hallertau Hersbrucker, and Czech Saaz. This combination of malt and hops, along with a classic lager yeast from Germany, and the long, low-temperature lagering process results in a mild, smooth, flavorful, complex beer that is a delight to drink.

From a bottle poured a light amber color with a fair amount of head. Nice smooth light flavor with a quick finish.

Pours a very light gold in color with absolutely no head whatsoever. Smell is very vegetal and corn like. Taste is vey lager like emphasing in corn. Pleny of carbonation and ass to go around. Not good.

<i>Draught at Old Dominion Brewhouse, Washington DC</i><br />Blond color, big head. Light malt aroma, maybe some more in the flavor, balanced but nothing special.

Bottle courtesy of sloth. Pours a hazy amber with a white head. Smells grassy with some earthy hints. Tastes lightly citrussy with a splash of pepper on the finish.

Typical American ice cream parlor flavored brewery stuff. Not real beer by European standards. Hoppy smell and flavor, fades quickly, has a corn flavor.

Bottle in VA. Bright golden yellow with a fizzy white head. Sweet grain and vanilla aroma and taste with some nice milky oat notes and a clean finish. Quite good.
