[Dixielandjazz] Beer (with Jazz content)

[Phil Pospychala]

The Dixie brewery had a 4 foot water line from Katrina.  We don't think they'll ever reopen.  Jaz was a big brewery in NO.  Now rehabbed into something else but may have a bar with many brews available.  FAlstaff had a plant next to the jail down there.  The building may still be standing.  Regal was another brewer.  All gone.> Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2008 18:25:44 +0000> From: tony at tony-davis.co.uk> Subject: Re: [Dixielandjazz] Beer (with Jazz content)> CC: dixielandjazz at ml.islandnet.com> To: bixguy at hotmail.com> > The brewing tradition lives on in the French Quarter - we found some> great beers here http://www.crescentcitybrewhouse.com/ in 2006.> > Tony Davis.> > George Thurmond wrote:> > > > Way back two or three or more decades ago beer was brewed right> > down in the French Quarter, about two blocks off Canal and between> > Bourbon and Royal.
