AlaricD, yeah, the Breaux Bridge Beer is pretty decent. We-La- have several smallish brewerys now. In NO we used to have 4-5 local brewerys-Dixie,Jacks,Regal, .When I was in college I would usually buy Jacks because it was the cheapest-about 60 cents a quart at a 7/11 type market.If I was feeling a bit more cosmopolitan, I would drink Boones farm apple wine-89 cents a fifth(I can still taste the chemical aftertaste of that stuff!!)
OK looked like a tough place to live-cold and windy without a lot of rain, but with plenty of tornados! Luck,Charlie
PS Stillwater much have changed a lot-it sure as heck didn't look like it would have any bedroom communities back in 1973.Of course, there wasn't much interstate back then.
