Give my regards to the French Qtr.
Wine is but
single broth.
Ale is meat,
drink and cloth.

There are two beers that I know of there, Abita- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abita_Brewing_Company
And Dixie-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixie_Brewing_Company
The last I heard Dixie was being contracted out because they were looted so bad during Katrina. I also heard their beer sucks.

But Dixie is aged on Cyprus chips..... 
The beer is probably enjoyed by less people than actually like it. -Me
They let the s**t hit the fan then they made a plan. Yep we all have a lot to drink about.

Not a beer joint specifically, but if "Dick and Jennys" is still around after the hurricane you should go. Good food, great service, off the beaten path.

Dixie Blackened Voodoo Lager is pretty decent or it was 6 years ago when I had it last.

I think Abita is a bit outside of NO
There was Crescent City Brewhouse and one other but I forget. Don't know if they are still there. Check out the beer mapping project.http://beermapping.com/

Unless things have changed, no. No impressive brew pubs or beer joints in that area.

It's been 10 years, but Crescent City Brewing was a nice place. Cheers...

The only thing I remember about Crescent City Brewing is the free shirt I got. That was in 2004 and I still wear the shirt. That was pretty much a lost weekend, can't remember too much except clearing out a bar of a large table full of attractive women.
