Post your list of Top 16 Beers Brewed in Louisiana.

Make sure it is in orders of favorite down. I'll tally all the votes next Wednesday to give everyone plenty of time to submit their list.


I'm going to rank your list using a point system.

All the no-brainers have already been posted.

My underdog is Great Raft Make Believer. It's as good of a session IPA as I've had.

Abita Grapefruit IPA is a top 16 beer which I don't recall being posted.

I don't know that I've tried the Bayou Teche Cocodrie or Loup Garou... if I did I don't really remember them.

Might have to try to come up with a list. I don't like Old 504 at all so that's bothering me.

That list is my starting point. I may very well be editing.

So everyone knows, you can edit until Tuesday/Wednesday when i start crunching numbers.

Dammnit!

I was going back and editing as I was going. Clearly I didn't proof read before hitting submit

Posted this in the other thread so copying and pasting here:

I did my top 25. Did a few more just in case any of these didn't qualify. The SIPA I tried at Parish's tap room would make my top 10 but I'm not certain if they made it again. We need a good local SIPA that is readily available here.

I also tend to go for darker beers over IPA's so they dominate my list for the most part.

I also have only tried one Great Raft brew and it was the lager. Need to try their good stuff.

1 Parish Grand Reserve
2 Nola Girl Stout Cookie
3 Nola Irish Channel Stout
4 Nola Horchata Milk Stout
5 Parish Ghost in the Machine
6 Parish Farmhouse IPA
7 Parish Dr. Hoptagon
8 Tin Roof Parade Ground Porter
9 Parish Envie
10 Nola Arabella Sour Ale
11 Nola Breakfast Brown
12 Abita Macchiato Milk Stout
13 Bayou Teche Loup Garou
14 Bayou Teche Biere Joi
15 40 Arpent Milk Stout
16 Nola Rebirth Pale Ale
17 Nola Brown
18 Nola Hurricane Saison
19 Nola 7th St Wheat
20 Nola Flambeau Red
21 Parish Canebrake
22 Nola Hopitoulas IPA
23 Tin Roof Juke Joint IPA
24 Abita Grapefruit IPA
25 Parish Southcoast Amber
