re: Thanks Again to the Food and Drink Board Beer Lovers

I was trying to keep our meeting at a hotel in Minden a secret!

I can speak for the many members of the FBD Krewe in saying that we all enjoy meeting people that share our enthusiasm for good craft beer, and you definitely fit the bill. My only regret was that my schedule was too tight for us to sit down and hoist a couple right then. You are going to be a great addition to our BXN-right up there with Wiltz, Jax, and Dean, all of whom I've been lucky enough to meet this year. A real beer lover, and a great guy to boot.

You obviously have access to some great beer that we don't, so put me down for a N. LA meet for next year. We will keep encouraging Parish and NOLA and Tin Roof and other local breweries to step up their games so we've got more to trade.
