Will Louisiana ever get either of these in my lifetime?
and if so, which do you think will be the first to be distributed here?

Yuengling first. DFH should be, not sure why it hasn't yet.

Both Don't have the brewing capacity to come to LA yet, it's not that we are not going after them.

I want Lagunitas! Especially since it was recently announced they'd be in Mississippi.

How soon are you going to die?
The answer is probably yes. They will both be here eventually.

don't really care about Yuengling
but DFH would be cool, they put out a ton of different beers, although a lot of their beers are hit or miss

I have a buddy that went to the Yuengling Brewery in Tampa a couple of weeks ago, he said they told him they'd be expanding into LA by the end of the year.

I'm pretty sure DFH pulled out of Tennessee when I lived there because they were scaling back as they couldn't meet the demands of their own local market, let alone country-wide market. I thought it was a pretty "craft" thing to do - in other words, focus on meeting the demands of your local market while maintaining your quality. Is this downsizing over? Was this even true?

I can tell you that Yuengling has been looking at Louisiana and has done a preliminary look at the distributors. I imagine they have other markets more attractive. Also, the sons want the expansion and the dad is happy right where they are at. I am fortunate enough to be a big enough player in the Houma area that I would probably have Yeungling reps come through during their inspection.
This is possible but I think that the end of the year is pretty quick. If anything it would be bottle only from the projections I have heard.

Hopefully not. I'd rather they not take up space on our shelves that could be used for a better brewery.

Yuengling blows, but not having DFH is a bummer.

When I first moved to LA, I was thrilled to see that Unibroue was available. Then, Goose Island moved into the scene.
The best day of my life will be when I can purchase a sixer of Bell's.
