Known for a full range of styles

Dominion City Brewing has been brewing in Ottawa's east end since 2014, with a range built around IPAs, lagers and barrel-fermented one-offs. The beers lean on Ontario-grown raw materials: hops from a family farm on the shores of Lake Erie, barley malted in Mississippi Mills and north of Belleville, foraged ingredients and wild yeast captured together with partners in Kitigan Zibi, and grape juice from a Prince Edward County winery for the Wilderness Gothic series. Each beer page lists its fermentables, hops, adjuncts and yeast.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
