Either that, or for a new brewery to have a booth in that White Star Market that's going up on Government.


The person/group that owns the market is going to run the bar, they are obtaining and controlling the liquor license.

My dream is for an upstart company to partner with a good local chef and open up a brewpub in the old Entergy site on Government Street. I think that would be a home run.


If it does get redeveloped as part of a BR-NOLA rail connection, I don't think your dream will be too far off. ETA: Just caught up... if that development is dead, then I really have no idea. I'm with you though, it would be a great idea.

Can someone start this same thread for New Orleans Proper?

I honestly think New Orleans could get close to Portland's level, with multiple successful breweries by neighborhood. You can only drink certain beers by actually going to those hoods. I think NOLA could handle at least 20 more breweries just in the city and become a wildly popular craft beer town in addition to everything else they offer.

In reference, Portland supports 58 right now and is about twice the size of NOLA.
