I stopped in at Chilly Water Brewing Company in Indianapolis, Indiana for a beer.  As my past stop in the evening, something sweet was in order.  The Peter Paul Chocolate Coconut Porter was perfect.  And , I may have had one of Skip’s Balls – dark chocolate – as well.  The beer was sweet and tasty.  I could definitely taste all elements: chocolate and coconut.  It was a perfect after dinner drink.  Delicious!

I stopped in at St. Joseph Brewery & Public House in Indianapolis, Indiana for dinner and a beer.  I tasted the Benevolent Belgian Blond and the Pew Buster Double IPA but I stayed with the Confessional IPA to enjoy with dinner which was the Claus’ German Sausage Sampler.  The two beers I tasted were great, but the IPA was outstanding.  And that name, Confessional IPA.  Of course, the brewery and restaurant are located in a former church building.  It is pretty cool to be sitting inside the building having a meal and a beer.  I highly recommend the food and beer.

Last night I walked from Indianapolis City Center to Two DEEP Brewing Company.  The walk put me over 10,000 steps for the day and enabled me to enjoy two great beers.  KnightStick Cream Ale is a solid, drinkable beer.  It is on the lighter side which makes it easy to drink.  Sitting back watching the game, it was a great beer to enjoy.  The beer that got me really enthusiastic was They’ve Gone to PLAID! Scotch Ale!  Sweet and malty and caramel, this is one tasty beer.  I’d make the walk here again to enjoy this beer again.  You’ve got to try it.

I stopped in at Daredevil Brewing Company in Indianapolis, Indiana on my way from the airport to downtown.  The Lift Off IPA is one of the best, maybe the best IPA I’ve ever tasted.  Very drinkable.  Enough hops to be hoppy but not too hoppy.  Delicious.  I also enjoyed a taste of the JWP American Stout.  Rich.  Creamy.  Smooth.  The taproom is a great spot to hang out.  I look forward to stopping in again.

I stopped in at New Albanian Brewing Company in New Albany, Indiana and enjoyed a 6″ personal pizza for dinner with the Elector Imperial Red Ale.  WOW!  The pizza was great and the personal size serving was perfect.  The beer was wonderful and went well with the pizza.  It is a solid mix of malt and hops with both a sweetness and a bitterness.  I can’t wait to stop back again.
