I had a great Halloween in NOLA. Many, many thanks to Flying Dog and Mister Hunter S. Thompson for the inspiration. Thanks to Beerfest (a bar full of taps on Bourbon St.) for having Flying Dog on tap.
What do you do if you’re in New Orleans during Halloween? Dress up like Dr. Gonzo, that’s what! Brad was there and spent the last day of October in style. And always remember to bring your trusty attorney with you, especially whilst spending Halloween in The Big Easy.
And friend of Flying Dog Siobhan dressed up like our Doggie Style Classic Pale Ale and partied the night away with us during our Flying Dog Pub Crawl down “The Gauntlet” in scenic Frederick, Maryland. Now we don’t want to presuppose anything, but you’re in for a pretty good night if you’re dressed up as anything called “Doggie Style”.
We sort of sprung this concept on you people a little late this year, but rest assured there will be a contest next year, so get started on your costume and win some schtuff.

Mississippi is missing out on some tax dollars. My tax dollars to be exact. Rather, any tax dollars of folks that enjoy craft beers. Mississippi has some antiquated, prohibition-era alcohol laws. This means that Mississippi doesn’t carry a lot of the beers that I and others like myself enjoy.
I’ve been out of town for work the past few days. I thought I would stop in Delta, LA on my way back from Dallas to get some beer before I crossed the MS/LA line. I picked up five single 11.2oz bottles of Delirium Nocturnum, three single 11.2oz bottles of Delirium Tremens, a bottle of Chimay Rouge aka Première (25.4oz/750ml), a bottle of Corsendonk Abbey Brown Ale (25.4oz/750ml), and a bottle of Tripel Karmeliet (25.4oz/750ml). I just walked in the door a few minutes ago, so I’m going to give them a few minutes to cool down before I open them.
Too bad, Mississippi!
Sláinte!
