Tilburgs Dutch Brown Ale

Bottle. Pours a clear brown color with a decent sized soapy off white head. Aroma is caramel, dough, brown sugar. Flavor is caramel, brown sugar, dough. Palate is medium bodied, medium carbonation, finishes sweet and "bock" like. I enjoyed this brew, reminds be of a bock.

Pours a nice amber brown color with a white foamy head. Smells of sugar and malt. Not much in the taste department. Had to try it again because I did not get much. Tastes of water, dark fruits, brown sugar, and caramel. Flavor is not bold enough for my liking.

Bottle in the basement of the Brickskeller in DC. Pours dark ruby brown, off white head. Aroma is carmel, wheat, grass. Flavor is caramel, grass, wheat, dried fruit.

Aroma is a very nice blend of walnuts, bark, and caramel. Traces of chocolate are also found. Brown color, clear, with a thick viscous head. Nutty taste, only slightly sweet. Weak but nice berry finish. I’m quickly becoming a big fan of EBAs.

Bottled. Pours a really nice brown with red tints. Smells of malt and nutty caramel, but pretty lightly. Absolutely delicious malt to chocolate and caramel with almost a hint of berry. Goes down smooth with a perfect bite. Will definitely buy again, if only to get a second chance to figure out the image on the label.

A bit sweet, caramel and molasses with some malt. Interesting beer, but not great.

Bottle. Pours mahogany with big beige head. The aroma isn’t very assertive, but contains caramel, molasses, and straw. The flavor is rich, sweet caramel, with some light spiciness and straw. Mainly sweetness, though. A pretty straightforward sweet brown.
