Bierbrouwerij De Koningshoeven B.V. Dutch Brown Ale - 5% ABV
Inside the Abbey of Koningshoeven in the tiny village of Tilburg in the Netherlands, near the Belgium border, lies a dandy brewery producing some dandy beers. Bierbrouwerij De Koningshoeven produces the La Trappe line of trappist beers along with the Dutch Brown Ale and a few other liquid delights.
The Dutch Brown is top fermented ale using an "ancient old recipe" that produces a delicious medium bodied brown ale that is sure to be more popular to the American palate. The color is dark brown and pours with a thick head that hangs around long enough to be interesting. The smell is quite subtle with hints of malt and bread. The beer is quite smooth and the flavors are astounding. Malts, earth, figs, nuts and a bit of sweetness. You will find that it is not a sweet as many brown ales and finishes a bit dry and a bit bitter, but not overpowering. I would happily drink many of these without tiring of it's interesting taste.
