Southern Louisiana?s beer scene is about to get a whole lot hoppier.

Currently on tap in the New Orleans area is Gnarly Barley Brewing Company?s re-imagined Radical Rye P.A. recipe, which has removed crystal malts from the grain bill, added hop resin for the Columbus and Cascade bittering hops and added Citra whirlpool and dry-hopping.
