Hustler Buys NOLA Distilling on Tchoupitoulas | Eater New Orleans

"I learned that Las Vegas-based HS Beverage bought Kirk Coco’s NOLA Distilling on Tchoupitoulas and plans to resume operations and spread the NOLA brand through the 15 states where Hustler-branded booze is available—primarily at Hustler strip clubs and Hustler retail stores. HS Beverage, which licenses the Hustler name, will produce Hustler-branded products at the distillery, and Bryan Carroll, formerly of Old New Orleans Rum, is taking over as the lead distiller. According to the report, HS Beverage already sells a couple of Hustler-branded booze options. NOLA Distilling had closed in April of this year, and an update notes the headline and first paragraph were changed to accurately reflect that HS Beverage bought NOLA Distillery." - Stephanie Carter
