NOLA beer question
Posted on 11/20/11 at 4:33 pm
Posted on 11/20/11 at 4:33 pm
Can you beer guys help me out here?
I'd like to try the NOLA beers everyone has been raving about but are they bottled? I doubt they are canned huh?
I went to their site and it said it's sold at Whole Foods and Albertson's on College and if it's not bottled then how is it sold? I saw a post where they may have said it was sold in mini-kegs maybe????
And which of their beers are sold in stores? I have 3 kids under 4 so we rarely get to go out to bars and such.
Thanks in advance

Funny. Yeah, we have twins that are 4 and then we had a surprise and she's 1. Now you see why I need the alcohol! I'm 40 so you'd think I'd know how to stop that from happening....
Thanks guys. Cans. Good deal. Do they sell a couple styles of their beers or several.
Everyone seems to like their stuff. I've been drinking Abita for many, many years and just never that impressed. I brewed my own stuff for years but have lost the space and time with the kids.

They currently only have the blond in cans. They will be releasing some others soon. Whole foods has them.

Hopitoulus is my favorite NOLA brew, but I believe you will only find it in a draft pack or on tap at the Bulldog.

I saw it on their website and it said it was a west coast pale ale so I would expect something like Sierra Nevada Pale Ale which is one of my top 10 faves.

Bought two six packs, NOLA Blond, from Albertsons at Highland/Airline in South BR. Should still be some there.

I'd have a tough time naming a favorite NOLA brew between Hopitoulas or Blonde, but I am a hop head and Hopitoulas is very good. It is very hoppy, so if you like IPAs you'll like it. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is not labeled an IPA, but it is as hoppy as many IPAs. The hops in Hopitoulas are drier and not as fragrant as the classic "west coast style" IPAs like Racer 5.

I'd say it is definitely on the low-end of hoppyness if we are calling it an IPA. Still one of my faves.

Side note: Just tried Bear Republic's Hop Rod Rye for the first time. Very good. Will definitely find its way into my rotation.

Only NOLA Blonde in cans right now. Will be releasing others in time.
Draft packs are available in most of their varieties at most grocery stores (Matherne's, Calandro's, Albertson's, etc). Hope you have an extra fridge or a really understanding wife, cause they take up room.

and to the OP. Just confirming what others said, blonde is the only one in cans right now. You can get any of their regulars and seasonals in draft packs (about 24 beers for $40+/-)
anyone know if irish channel stout is on draft right now?
