Cool building and a nice indoor space for drinking beer. They have a stage now for live entertainment. Beer quality is only mediocre to my palate. Worth stopping by.

Indy is a quick drive for me, so I try to hit the city up several times a year. This place is the best I've come across, as far as Indy is concerned. They are right on trend with the super juicy IPA's and weird beer names and can art. The spot is big and has plenty of history. Probably the only spot I would say is a must stop in Indy, especially if you're a hop head. Well, an east coast style hop head.

Indiana City Brewing is super easy to get to from the Interstate. Parking was readily available. A cool spot to drink beer on a warm fall day when I visited in Oct 2016. Very laid back, I don't remember seeing any screens, which is nice sometimes. Was hoping to see some edgy or robust beers; instead, the selection was middle of the road. Great service and a nice atmosphere. Worth a stop if you're in the area.

Stopped in on a quiet Monday evening giving a great opportunity to talk to the bar tender. The Dock 7 and the Shadow Boxer are top tier, the Red Collar didn't differentiate itself, however overall the beers were excellent. Just needs a food truck (only here on weekends)

Stop #419 on my world brewery tour.

Old building shared with other local businesses on the fringe of downtown on the east side. I believe there was a Peruvian food truck outside Friday around 3:30.

Had half pints of most the beers. Black IPA, Belgian Golden Strong, and Stout were all very nice. Yacht Rock, Belgian wheat, seems like a great one for a hot summer day.

Really nice exposed brick interior. High ceilings, big doors to open when weather cooperates.

Can see the brewhouse which is maybe just a hair bigger than a nano and probably always brewing if they have the demand I would assume for the nice beers.
