I was going by https://blog.docker.com/2016/04/docker-engine-1-11-runc/ which advertised "DNS round robin load balancing".

Docker 1.12 built-in load-balancing supports both VIP based LB using IPVS and also DNS-RR and it is configurable per-service. VIP based LB is the default though. All of these will be fully documented shortly.
