It wouldhave been a tragedy if someone had been hurt. As it was, repairs are easy to make. Hell of a hole in the wall and roof, though.

Operationally, things are back to normal.

Hey, Turbodog...

When is Andygator coming out in bottles? Wasn't it supposed to be some time in January? Looking forward to it.

I know some folks were talking about seeing it in stores this past weekend in the Hammond and Baton Rouge area.

Glad no one was hurt.

Not to mention the Abbey Ale. Really looking forward to that one.
By the way, I still haven't found an outlet serving the Oatmeal Stout. Bulldog on Magazine still has the 4 (5?) Grain. Is there a listing of who is currently serving the Stout?

True. No one should cry over spilt milk, or beer. Can't help thinking, though, of Billy Sol Hurok and Big Jim McBob: "Blow'd up good/Blow'd up real good."

Yeah, I have my gripes too. Lagers is still pouring the Abby Ale, but the Chimes has been pouring the Oatmeal Stout for at least a month.

Both Abbey Ale and Andygator should start showinfg up in stores anytime, if not already. I know the brewpub is selling bothin bottles (to go).

I don't know why Bulldog would still be pouring the previous Select (4 grain). Chimes has been selling out of the Oatmeal stout.

Two of those Brew Pub bottles of A-G went home with me last weekend. 22 oz. (each) of joy.
