Karlos Knott is the brewmaster at Bayou Teche Brewing in Arnaudville, LA. Bayou Teche was founded on this simple dream – to craft beers that compliment the cuisine and lifestyle of Cajuns and Creoles. With that mission, the Knott brothers decided on St. Patrick’s Day in 2009 to convert a discarded rail road car into a farmhouse brewery.

The Krewe of Craft Beer

In Louisiana, Mardi Gras is celebrated with opulent floats from krewes in lively and historic parades, flamboyantly-costumed performers throwing beads, doubloons and coconuts, festive music...and craft beer? A new Mardi Gras tradition has been taking root since 1990—great seasonally-crafted beers have been added to the region’s pre-Lenten celebrations.
