beer_name: Tilburg's Dutch Brown Ale
text: Looks like liquid mahogany. A decent 1 1/2 inch light brown head tries to stick around, but ends up fading fairly quickly. At any rate, it looks inviting out of the bottle. Smells like sweet caramel and grapes. Intriguing. The first whiff is very sweet, and I was certain that this would be a decent beer. Tastes much like the smell, but with a bit of bitterness. Sweet and satisfying...something salty would go well with this. Very smooth, moderate carbonation, but it seemed somewhat watery by the time I finished it. Drinkable? Without a doubt. A good beginner's beer that's sweet and easy to drink.
