Them and 100 other breweries. Investors saw $$$ and everyone and their uncle is hoping to sell out. InBev only has so much frickyou money to throw around.

I would put them a little better than NOLA. Pretty solid lineup.
I enjoy the sours that NOLA puts out more than any beer that I've tried from Urban South.

Well yeah, but that's kinda apples and oranges. A better comparison would probably be the flagships.

I really like Modillion, but I don't know where this Urban South is currently anything more than a one beer brewery sentiment is coming from. I haven't had Holy Roller in the last couple months, but the ones I did have weren't worth ordering again.
I haven't had the Delta Momma that people seem to enjoy, but the wit, Rectify & Holy Roller aren't good.

I tried this over MG and liked it. Wit was not good at all but wife likes it. Haven't tried Rectify. Modillion was good. Holy Roller was meh.

Is this is stores, or only on tap?

Modillion was in stores in New Orleans.
Not sure if any is left.

Modilion was part of a series of beers they are putting out. They are about to release another one under that series. It's a double IPA. Rectify is pretty solid. They're new so I'm giving them time but they have some solid beers.

Finial is next, getting released in two weeks

I've tried Holy Roller and the coffee Porter, I thought they were both solid. Parish is definitely better but I'd choose Urban South ahead of breweries like Tin Roof and Abita.

When you sell t-shirts and stickers before you actually sell beer are you a t-shirt company or a brewery?

Modillion was good, IMO. Be interesting to try the DIPA.
They haven't made a good beer outside of that, at least for my palate. People keep trying to tell me Holy Roller is good, and it keeps being not good. They've definitely tweaked it, it's definitely better, but it's still not good. Went out the other night and ordered an Envie and a Holy Roller. Let the girl I was with taste and pick the one she preferred. Much to my disappointment, she chose the Envie.
If I'd rather drink Envie, it's not there yet.

Tin Roof is starting to make good beer now. That new brewer they have actually knows what he's doing unlike the past head Brewers. New juke joint is better than holy roller, IMO. Their new voodoo is great as well. That's all I've had of tin roofs new recipes.
I didn't care for rectify, nor their saison. Holy roller is the only other one I've had, I thought it was ok. But obviously no Parish.
Abita is simply playing from behind, trying to catch up to the rest of the new age of craft beer breweries and are a step behind with every release, IMO.

Even if this is 100% true, why would it matter? People in the industry talk about early scaled up production like a it's a bad thing to bet on one's future success. It's certainly risky. The owners are business people and if they want to put in a lot of work and later get rewarded later with a buyout and thus never have to work again, great for them. If the beer doesn't suffer then I don't care.
