"When San Diego transplant Scott Wood met Louisiana native Lindsay Hellwig in New Orleans, not only did they begin a family, but also a craft beer partnership called The Courtyard Brewery that would merge West Coast craft beer sensibilities with the rich culture of Louisiana and New Orleans."

"Can you boil water and cool it? Yes. Can you clean up after yourself? Yes. Can you wait a week or a couple weeks? Yes. OK, then brew beer."

“It’s similar to going to a winery,” Leblanc said. “It’s not about the consumption of beer; it’s about tasting beer.”

"The nano brewery model lets Courtyard be nimble. Because they will make small batches, they can change the recipes frequently."

Favorite Quote:
"self distribution laws, which are in place in 16 states, would foster growth of microbreweries and brewpubs by allowing them to sell directly to bars and retailers. 'It gives the smaller guy more exposure,' Coco said. 'No one brewery is going to dominate in the city. We should be a city with several operations and tremendous variety.'"

Trying to Keep Up

One post every six months is about all I can spare. I've become one of those busy people. I'm busy chasing a pay check, a dream and this little human. He's getting so big and gregarious and curious. 

Here is Jules trying to fill in his dad's shirt. 
The one he wore the night we met. 
The shirt that made me make this face...
And caused him to take the photos 
and get my number and you know the rest. :)
