They have one up here in little rock and little rock has less selection than br. Also, it is much quieter than the one in Houston. I think that one is so loud va cause it's Houston and everywhere you go there are 1 million people.

I haven't been to the one in Little Rock on Markham since there was smoking allowed. Not saying that I'm avoiding it, but it's just been that long since I've been there. There was a charm of being able to enjoy both a craft beer and a fine cigar. I remember that Ringo Starr was there that night with his all star band. That riverwalk is the shite in summertime. I used to get some good grub there at the market, and trust me, every trained duck at the Peabody looked like potential dinner.

I've only been to the one in Austin. It was pretty nice but there was almost *too* much selection. It made my head spin.

I tried a few crazy beers and then ended up drinking Rogue Dead Guy the rest of the night..which is kind of lame since you can get that in NOLA.

If they put one in NOLA I think they should definitely do it in the Quarter--maybe where one of the shops next to JAX is, right by Jackson Square on the river side or a little further down closer to Canal Place/Felipes. I think it's too big for Bourbon St. A big HELL NO to it going out in Metairie. Who wants to drive drunk back to the city after drinking there?

I think it would do well here.

ALSO--LA's liquor/beer laws are MUCH better than Alabama's IIRC.

Next time try one of the samplers which they (flying saucer) cleverly call "flights". It's five smaller portions of various brew. Last time I was there I took the hophead flight and wasn't disappointed.
