A work in progress. I’m collecting an annual list of things I love to go to as a beer drinker. This list is of any beer brewing or drinking event I’m willing to drive to from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This includes New Orleans, Lake Charles, Lafayette, Houston. Possibly even willing to drive out to Mississippi and Alabama but last I heard they were still living in prohibition times.
January
February
March
April
- New Beer’s Eve AKA National Brew Day – Also happens to be my birthday. Celebrate the end of prohibition.
