Congrats to them. Just got back from a weekend at the camp and had quite a few Nola Browns on the front porch.

Out of 40 breweries and 150 beers, NOLA Brewing takes the gold medal in the Brown/Amber Ale category!!! We are thrilled! We will be out in Scottsdale, AZ this weekend pouring our award winning Brown Ale along with the hometown favorite, NOLA Blonde! Stop by and see us if you are in the southwest!

i've been enjoying the NOLA blonde for several months, but I finally tried the Brown last week. Really enjoyed it...much richer and more complex in flavor than your average brown ale.

really happy to see NOLA getting recognized for producing a great beer.

Good shite!

I haven't had the Brown in cans yet but it's a solid beer. And very sessionable.

Congrats to them, but I'm not really a fan of the Nola Brown. It is a little too watery to me for a brown ale. I like the Blonde better as a light beer option.

BRONZE - Special ESB (SKA Brewing Company)

Tried that while I was in Wyoming. It's like a better version of Newcastle

The Irish Channel Stout is my favorite. I drink the Blonde more often, but the stout is really great.

I still need to try the Stout. I'll be a happy fella the day they put the Hopitoulas in cans.

Congrats to nola. They make a solid product. The south needs more breweries like this.

Irish Channel Stout
Hopitoulas
Flambeau Red
7th Street Wheat
Brown
Hurricane Saison
Blonde


After the top three its a crapshoot really. They're all very good. Ive gone through a couple cases of blondes over the past few weeks with crawfish boils, lawn work and being in hot weather in general

I am a big fan of the brown and have been for some time. Tonight I had the Irish Stout with espresso and vanilla bean infusion at the Bulldog which was very interesting.
