    So I did pretty well in my Black Friday hunt, but now I'm interested in tasting some of these monsters on tap. I know Twenty Tap still has BCBS and Barleywine on tap (as of yesterday anyway). Anywhere else you guys know about that has BCBS or any variants on tap or will soon? Looking around Fishers/Castleton/Broad Ripple area (and even Downtown if it's the weekend).

    Thanks BA!

    Saw regular and BW on tap at Chatham. Macnivens and Tall Paul's Basement Cafe both have regular. Both Chatham and 20 tap did have Vanilla and Coffee on, but they both went pretty quick. I'm also hoping to find a few more tappings at some points if there are still kegs out there.

    Is it Chatham downtown or Fishers?

    I went to MacNiven's on Saturday night (in town for the 'Skins/Colts game). They had regular BCBS on draft. The bartender said they had kegs of all the variants, but only were tapping them one at a time. Give 'em a call to see what they're offering.

    Nice! Thanks man. I saw they were tapping regular, but I didn't know if they'd got any variants.

    Glad to hear it and thanks for sharing - I wasn't able to hit either of the places with coffee or vanilla on Friday - Hopefully I am paying attention when MacNivens taps them!!

    The District Tap on 82nd had BCBS on tonight. I was locked up with family on Black Friday (sorry @aasher !) so I've been trolling around town. Thanks for the heads up on the BW - that's the magic juice right there.

    Any updates on when McNiven's might have coffee or vanilla on tap?

    I'm shocked how many 1/6bbls of Vanilla have been tapped

    I was shocked to find any variants in Indy on tap Black Friday. I heard Bloomington only got 2 kegs of regular. Not sure if it's true, but going off of what I've seen checked in on Untappd, I would believe it.

    Does anyone know if there will be a regular or variant on tap today somewhere around downtown? I'll be in the area mid afternoon, wouldn't mind going on a wild goose chase!

    I would call Harry and Izzy's and check to see if they have any left. It might be a long shot….but at this point, everything is probably a long shot. That's Castleton, not downtown, but still pretty close by.
