Long Bridge Brewing

the road traveling to and from client offices. During “busy season”, when public accountants can expect to work 80+ hours a week, Scott spent countless hours commuting across the long bridge from New Orleans to his clients on the Northshore. One spring morning, Scott began his commute to another long, unfulfilling workday. During the drive, he couldn’t help but think about his recently brewed batch of beer fermenting at home. He daydreamed about how much he would enjoy being in a brewery on a morning like this – doors wide open, crisp spring air blowing, and a batch of something delicious brewing. But reality struck and reminded him that he was still crossing the long bridge. And that’s when it hit him – for months, he had been searching for the perfect name for his brews and he finally found the one that fit. The name fit perfectly – it served as an ode to such an iconic architectural structure in southern Louisiana, the connection between his hometown and New Orleans, the location that showed him he was meant to brew beer, and the place where he promised himself that he would one day open his own brewery.
