Andrew responded saying that they couldn't get the barrels that he wanted, and that they could have gotten shitty Jim Beam Barrels but in his words "frick that" .

Oh and your place got volunteered to be the host site for a party after GR day on Nov 22nd.

ETA: Also Parish is going to release a new 11+ ABV beer, bottle conditioned beer

ETA2: I really want to get some GiTM 4 packs here in Nola

I wanna ride that thing so bad. It looks like such a trashy good time. If we had that I guarantee I would be sideways by the time we got to Parish

Regarding Great Raft getting pappy barrels, we can't wait to taste whatever beer they produce with them. Also the guy in charge of pappy barrel sales is a Shreveport native and I believe there is a strong connection there. Andrew and Lindsay may have asked for them a year ago, or they just got hooked up. Who knows. Maybe tomorrow I'll holler at them and see if they have too many. Just in case.


Andrew with Great Raft addressed this in a thread on BA.

We will figure something out soon. Unfortunately we weren’t prepared to get these. We got the phone call Friday, flew up Tuesday and came back Thursday. A bit of a last minute thing but when the Pappy Bat signal went up we dropped everything… Obviously…

Bumping this thread just to put a nail in its coffin. On FB this morning Andrew (Are we supposed to brag about being friends with him? With all the posturing that went on here I wasn't sure but it seemed like an appropriate thing to do) posted a picture of a truck leaving Four Roses with freshly emptied bourbon barrels headed for the brewery. So it appears that there will be a barrel project in the near future.

I'd say you did the exact opposite

I was super excited to see this can of worms opened up again. I'm hoping maybe this time we can get some secrets out of Geaux DJ.

ETA for pic

Chicken shite into chicken salad, as my grandfather would say

ETA: In fairness to Andrew, this probably wasn't planned. An opportunity arose and he capitalized upon it, but I'm just speculating and have no inside info. I know NOLA has at least one fresh 4 Roses barrel as well. They got it about a month ago, however.
