Tilburg’s Dutch Brown Ale: Beer Profile
Tilburg’s Dutch Brown Ale (Holland) – 5.2% ABV: Trappist breweries are best known for their complex yeast strains and the resulting big beers. But the only Trappist brewery in the Netherlands is starting to turn heads with a beer that is more mainstream than you might think. Tilburg’s Dutch Brown Ale is closest to an English brown ale, but really has a style all its own. The nutty aroma is traditional, but the slight sour notes convince you this beer is an oud bruin. Those sour notes are absent in the flavor though, and are replaced with a sweet sucrose taste and some minor chocolate flavors. A moderate body helps to balance the sharpness, and this ale finishes with a creamy smoothness that blows away most brown ales.

Benefit in Memory of Thomas Davidson
I was deeply saddened to read this story over the weekend, but it wasn't until today that I made the connection to the Jacket Gallery, owned by one of our co-owners. From Quick:
Please turn out and help support this event. Benefit at the Jacket Gallery 6-10 PM, Thursday April 17th.
Tragedy at the Jacket Gallery in Expo Park
Thomas [Davidson], a local metal sculptor, opened a show at the new Jacket Gallery last Thursday. On his way home, he died in a motorcycle accident. He hit one of the guardrails off I-30, where it merges onto Central. Police didn't find his body until four hours later. (Detailed Fox story about the accident here.) He also had two kids.
The Jacket Gallery -- which is owned by Sheldon Hubbard, the co-owner of the Amsterdam Bar -- is having a special show on Thursday night from 6 to 10 p.m. Proceeds from any works sold will benefit Gregory's children's college funds.

Rush coming to Superpages.com Center in concert April 25th!
Progressive rock super group Rush is coming to the Superpages.com Center (formerly Smirnoff Music Centre) on April 25th. With some luck, you may still be able to get tickets. Rush's live shows are legendary.
The Superpages.com Center is located at 1818 1st Avenue Dallas, Texas 75210, just on the other side of Fair Park from The Amsterdam Bar. This means that we are a great place for you to have a couple of beers before the concert or, even better, to wind down after the concert on our huge outdoor patio. The Amsterdam Bar is a great place to finish a night of music at the Superpages.com Center and Fair Park.
