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.

aroma: mild citrus and doughy aroma appearance: gold amber color with a nice foamy head taste: not too bitter. a little sweetness comes through palate: light crisp body with a slightly bitter finish. overall: not a bad session brew but lacks something to make it really stand out.

Golden clear with smallish head... nutty, malty aroma, some sweetness, not too much.... malty up front, some drying hops in the finish, quite doughy/biscuity, some grassy hops... too much sweet malt, not clean enough for me...

Butters (2841) - Richmond, Virginia, USA - MAY 20, 2010
Clear golden pour with no real head. Nose is a little sweet and honey. Flavor is actually nice malt grain backbone with a fair amount of grassy hops kinda like a pils. But not as bright or crisp. This was actually pretty tasty and a damn good bud sub or transition beer.

Beerman6686 (2384) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 26, 2010
This poured a golden yellow color with a white head. Aroma was of semi sweet malt, some grassy malts and not much else. Flavor was fairly mild for a dortmunder, but refreshing, a typical decent lager but nothing special.

Poured a golden color with a nice head. The aroma was lager all the way. The flavor was sweet malts and a touch of bitters. Overall, very drinkable and enjoyable.
