Tin Roof Brewing in Baton Rouge just kicked LSU tailgates up a notch.
Just ahead of the the Tigers hitting the field for the start of fall camp, the brewery announced the upcoming release of its new beer, “Bayou Bengal Lager.”
Tin Roof’s marketing director Rivers Hughey said the brewery asked locals in the Baton Rouge area to do a blind taste test of different batches of beer in hopes of finding a brew that appealed most to Tigers fans.
“The response was overwhelming and we were only able to include 5 percent of the applicants to participate in the two panels,” Hughey said in a press release.
