NOLA Brewing Company is the first brewery to set up in New Orleans after hurricane Katrina. New Orleans isn't a terribly sophisticated beer town, so I didn't expect much from NOLA Brewing. They unleashed their beer upon this drunken city last weekend, and the beers turned out to be really good. NOLA has two offerings, a blonde ale and a brown ale. This isn't a full write up on either. NOLA blonde ale has a good hop punch. It's sweet, flowery and fruity. I don't think I could drink several in a row because the sweetness became a little cloying at the end of the first beer. It reminded me of a hoppy Triple. NOLA's brown ale was excellent. It's dark, malty and immensely drinkable witha brisk espresso kick.

You have shown your utter ignorance when you say New Orleans isn't a sophisticated beer town. Up and until recent economic conditions (and then hurricane Katrina) New Orleans was the south's beer capitol. Your link to TOURISTS getting drunk on Bourbon street notwithstanding.
If you truly understood anything about New Orleans, you'd know Bourbon street isn't where locals go to eat, drink, and listen to music. Bourbon street is where tourists go to drain their wallets and puke on themselves. It is the furthest thing from an example of the way New Orleanians enjoy the night life. We don't go there.
When you want to know how New Orleanians eat and drink, leave Bourbon Street.
