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.

12 oz bottle. Light gold/yellow color with small quick fading head. Yeasty, citrusy nose. Not much on taste - lightly citrusy and light hops. Starts medium and fades to weak. Inoffensive, backyard beer. Not really bad, but I expect more from Dominion - other beers are excellent.

Very crisp and clean. Good session beer. Tastes a lot like Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold

5000 (3998) - Hardened Liver, Washington, USA - OCT 7, 2005
Bottle: Vibrant straw, translucent, lively carbonation, minor white frothy head, spotty lacing.   Soft cornbread nose, slight hay or straw.   Grassy on the tongue, very slight corn and diacytl.   Moderate body and mouthfeel.   Finishes with strong corn and butter... blech.   Smelled decent, started decent, but choked on the finish.

Draft. Clear buttery gold pour. Light crystal malt aroma, and some slightly fruity notes from the hops. This lager had more to offer in flavor than most lagers I’ve had - decent malt character and some hops and a bitter finish. Decent lager.

Nice flavor. However, there is nothing overly special about this beer. Has more flavor than most other beers out there, but it really isn’t "special" enough. Good American beer.

I was really quite happy with this beer. Hazy golden body is topped by a white foam. The aroma is actually hoppy, a good bit of noble character, but the slight citrusy lean of the hops is explained by the American grown nobles. The body has a nice straw malt backbone supported nicely by a crisp hop tingle and firm bitterness. A really excellent lager.

UPDATED: DEC 25, 2005 Keg at a BBQ. Looks like beer, smells like beer, and guess what it tastes like beer. Nothing uber special but a good choice over the macro beers.

Nothing special here -- a run of the mill lager. Thick frothy head, golden appearance, malty taste with a nice hop finish. Very unoriginal and clearly one for the masses. My father in law, a loyal Bud Drinker, liked it tho, so that is saying something.
