I received an email this morning from a representative of WYES in New Orleans.

It looks like the overzealous enforcement of a long outdated set of beer regulations by Troy Hebert and the ATC has forced the oldest beer event in Louisiana to shutdown.

Sad day for Louisiana beer drinkers...

We should just have a massive bottle share at the Fly in protest.

Sad day for one of the best ways to have a fundraiser too.

What does this mean for all of the other great festivals?

The long and short of it is, they just weren't making the money. And the past few years, I have heard from people that it wasn't worth the $$.
