I know I heard it from the man himself along with a lot of other people that this years Grand Reserve was going to be barrel aged.

I just wanted to let you all know that it is not going to happen now. Reason why? Shortage of bourbon barrels. This has got to be the worst excuse ever. I can go on to most websites and find barrels for sale right now. Hell Tin Roof just picked up a barrel to BA parade ground. I also heard Great Raft got 12 Pappy barrels, Bayou Teche is barrel aging beer. Andrew was exited about doing it and now it's not gonna happen.

Maybe next year, who knows.

So if andrew cant find enough of what he thinks is the right barrel for his beer he should just get any ole random barrel to put gr in just so geaux can have his "inside" scoop. Gtfo! Sounds like andrew should stop telling you shite.

Shitty news but Andrew did tell us a few months ago that unless he found exactly what he was looking for, he wasnt going to do it.

I was at Hokus Pokus in Prairieville the other day getting a growler filled and the guy there (I guess he's the owner) told us he had 2 bourbon barrels (didn't say what kind) and Parish was going to use them to age Grand Reserve in. He said one would be served in the Parish tap room and the other wouth be sold at the Hokus Pokus store.
