U Look Hungry is here this week to drop some knowledge about Mardi Gras, and no it's not just one day long! Host Helen Hollyman is joined by renown New Orleans bartender Chris Hannah who works at the legendary French 75 bar at Arnaud's Restaurant. He gives us the scoop on all the classic Mardi Gras cocktails--from the Suissesse to the Bacchanalian-- to hangover helpers and digestifs. Tune in and by the end of this episode you'll be ready to pass for a native and even get invited into New Orleans crew. This episode is sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons.
"In order to storytell you need to have a couple facts and then you embellish your story, so reading old books is a fantastic way to get facts . . I keep about 8 cocktail books behind the bar and I love to serve a guest, make them a drink, and then hand them a book so they can read about it, it enhances the experience."
--Chris Hannah on U Look Hungry

This week on Beer Sessions, Jimmy & Ray host a loosely themed "Mardi Gras" show. Ray talks a bit about the Mardi Gras festivities in New Orleans and what made him open a bar down there and explains why craft beer and Mardi Gras are not a match made in heaven. Later on the show, Shane Welch and Jeff Gorlechen from Sixpoint Craft Ales stop by to preview the upcoming Beer For Beasts event. The Barrier Brewing Company guys also stopped by to explain why their garage brewery in Long Island isn't so different from the big guys. This episode was sponsored by GreatBrewers.com = the #1 beer site on the internet.
