Dominion Oak Barrel Stout is rich and smooth, a draught brew so popular at our Brewup that we found a way to bottle it for a wider audience. We combine seven different malts and two hops to create a delicious stout, that we dry-hop with fresh vanilla beans and toasted oak to finish our little treasure. The result is a stout that has the bourbon barrel flavor we all enjoy, and hope you will to.

Keg at Jake’s Place. Black body with a thin tan head that slowly fades. Mild aroma of toffee, chocolate, vanilla, furniture polish and treacle. Flavour is incredibly sweet - honey, oat, blackcurrant flavoured Strepsils and milk chocolate. It quickly becomes cloying. Thin body with a watery, slightly oily texture. Average carbonation. A sickly sweet Stout - not my idea of a good time. On the plus, the oak flavour comes through well.

Bottle from the Great British Beer Festival 2013. Poured a thick black colour with a dense, tan head. Aroma of dark fruit, brown sugar and maple syrup. Coffee flavours with fruit cake and cinnamon. Finishes with roasted malt, black syrup and stewed fruit. A little sweet for my liking, but pretty nice.

Draught @ harry’s Smokehouse, Arlington, VA. Pours cloudy very dark brown with small tan head. Clear aroma of malt, roast, and caramel. Sweetish flavour of caramel malt with a note of roasted beans and a subtle touch of dark chocolate. Sourish and slightly bitter finish. Nice.

355ml bottle. Dark brown to black with a nice crema head. Nose of liquorice and chocolate. Taste of more chocolate going into coffee. The palate is medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly elegant finish. Overall, a well made stout - didn’t get much or any of the oak I’d have to say.
