Yep. They used to keep the beer in the huge cypress tanks in there, and they're supposedly all ruined. They weren't taking really good care of that place, even before the storm.

I always thought they missed a golden opportunity to jump on to the whole craft brew craze and position themselves as a really good regional type beer (along the lines of Abita), and fixing up that brewery, rather than simply a quaint touristy relic. I know they sort of tried with Blackened Voodoo, but that never really got beyond the point of just being basically a gimmick.
