It's confirmed...

A tasting get together will be held at Parish Brewery on Tuesday November 26th. I plan on bringing some CCB, Florida made and other rare brews. Would love to see some other brews arrive courtesy of the FBD crew. I plan on arriving around 600-630 and caps will start popping soon thereafter.

If you are interested please shoot me a reply or an email. I've told the guys at Parish that I'd give them a rough head count.

Cheers and looking forward to finally drinking a few beers with ya'll in person.


You guys are going to have a blast. Wish I could make it but I'm working that day and it'd be a 2 hour drive after work. (3+ hours considering I'd have to go through that shithole traffic in BR).

If you are in or around New Orleans any time around Thanksgiving hit me up.

I just realized yesterday that Gigantic is now available in Cali. Besides for the IPA, which I enjoyed, should I be on the look out for anything specific.



Hellion is decent, Time Traveler is good. I'm trying to think of the ones that you will probably see in a bottle. IPA and Hellion, for sure. Gigantic makes a good beer for the money...

ETA: I don't think I've had a bad Gigantic beer. I've had the IPA more than anything. They don't bottle everything they make, so they have a limited number of beers in the store. They are not world class, but they cost about 4 bucks for a bomber, so they are always in the mix when I'm contemplating my NBD...

Good thing I didn't actually plunk down 80 bucks for that monstrosity. I like Stone, but I don't believe I like any beer that much. Of course, that one beer could get me and a few friends drunk...

I'm a big guy. I think that beer was almost as big as Kim... Just trying to give a little perspective on the scale of that picture.

Sorry, I was planning on Saturday but a lot of folks balked because of the TAMU game. Sunday I'm shooting to Venice for a fishing trip on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday night are my best targets. Is Weds better for the group?

Nola guys, it's still a 2 hour drive, but if you take 90, you won't hit nearly as much traffic as going through BR. Plus the brewery is right off of 90. Just an idea. I take that route everytime I go into Nola usually.

And Wiltz, any night is good with me.

This is really damn good for an accidental sour. Hopefully they keep them coming.
