Beer jesus coming to New Orleans

Post by Beer-lord »

Our Avenue Pub on St. Charles. I think I'm going next week and I hope nothing comes up to change that.

Greg Koch, CEO & Co-Founder of Stone Brewing, will be with us from 7pm – 9m on Thursday night (Sept. 26th)!

We will have the regular Stone line up plus these vintage and rare beauties…

We will start tapping some of the high ABV large kegs early in the week and by Thursday all of the below will be on tap. We will be tapping in the rough order listed below but because we have to wait till lines clear none of the tapping dates are absolutely guaranteed until Thursday night.

Week long Tasting Tickets and a Tasting Glass:
To give you a chance to try as many of these great beers as possible – without getting so drunk you fall off your bar stool – we will be selling a tasting ticket for $25 that includes 9 four ounce pours plus a tasting glass (while supplies last). You will be able to use the punches on this ticket until the beers have blown!

Man, that looks the place to be. Thursday night looks like the right time to go too, meet Greg Koch and get some w00tStout :jumpy: I'm not a stout fan, but that stuff is off the hook delicious.

They like to let it all hang out.
I now hear it's $25 to attend. Not sure I need to give Stone that money since Enjoy By is coming out next week and that will by 3 bombers!

The earlier you book, the cheaper it will be? I'd buy the beer and dinner too!

Must be something about the name "Koch" that gives someone the ability to brew outstanding beer. That is the name of the founder of Sam Adams as well.
