Seems like over the last few years small local breweries have been popping up all over the state. I know there has been plenty of discussion about the different beer that Louisiana breweries offer on this board, but looking through the search I couldn't find a thread dedicated to hearing what everyone's specific favorites were. Interested to hear the always differing opinions of this board.

NOLA Irish Channel Stout. Parish Grand Reserve is great, but is a limited release beer.

Hurricane Saison by Nola, but I'm hoping Parish Farmhouse IPA will replace it. We need more belgian/french styles in this state. I also need to try the new Bayou Teche saison.

NOLA Blonde and Canebrake. I don't drink beer much and prefer light easy drinkers because of the weather.

I haven't tried a ton of local beers but Parish Envie is by far the best I've had locally. However, it's not available yet.. so for available beers, NOLA Hopitoulas. I haven't had their stout yet, but Hopitoulas is solid.

I always thought Dixie had a Green Pecan aftertaste.

Jax was always underrated IMO.

Hopitoulas is my go to beer. Also a fan on NOLA Brown and ICS. Will be nice when ICS is canned but I've been told the Hopzilla will be first.

Other two I like pretty much equally:

NOLA Blonde
