NOLA Brewing Jumps on the Smoked Beer Train with Smoky Mary


NOLA Brewing releases their smoked beer called Smoky Mary on September 6th!!! If I'm not mistaken the beer is named after the Ponchartrain Railroad which was not only the first railroad west of the Alleghenies but also the second oldest in the country. According to the website it was nicknamed Smoky Mary because it used coal and "belched smoke and left a sooty residue in its path".

I've had the luxury of trying this one and loved it! Trust me! Get on over to Avenue Pub and try this one! Here are the details:

Where: Avenue Pub
When: Tuesday September 6th
Time: 6pm-9pm

Join us for the Smokey Mary Premier Pub Stall. We'll start and end this pub stall with our friends at Avenue Pub! Come by at 6:00 and get yourself acquainted with our latest seasonal brew, Smokey Mary.

Our Smokey Mary is, in our humble opinion, an awesome ale.

We took the Munich malt from our malt bill and smoked it with local pecan wood for 2.5 hours. We then put that malt back into the recipe of a "Fest" style ale.

ABV – 5.9%

See you then!

Alright folks I hope to see you there!

Cheers!

Funny, that's what I think about most smoked beers.
