Sun King Brewing

Sun King Brewery and Three Floyds release their third collaboration brew, Slacktivist.

While it doesn’t yet rival the likes of Fletcher Place, Holy Cross may soon be pushing boundaries—quite literally.

Thirty years ago this week, Bob Knight threw a chair. We remember.

Central Indiana’s first craft-beer wave broke a couple of decades ago. Though several of those breweries didn’t survive to witness today’s larger flood of openings, their brewers—and their stuff, and their legacies—are still floating around.

“My beard is a little unruly,” says Central State Brewing’s Josh Hambright. “I’ve been told that I look like Rasputin.”

I live within a 10-minute walk of three craft-beer establishments, including one that made our Best New Breweries list. This is an embarrassment of riches, especially after living in states that, at the time, boasted little beer beyond Bud.

How to avoid the lines, what to taste, and the edible accessory you’ll want to wear.

LocalFolks’s farmstead-inspired salsa lets the bright flavors of bell pepper and cider vinegar shine through so you won’t overheat when the game goes into overtime.

Meet the Flockers—Indy’s urban chicken farmers—plus look back on Indy 500 Snake Pit hijinks, the State Fair food romp, and a pair of brew-drenched events.

Bid on designer purses. Make a new holiday tradition. Get a tan. Buy a knockout party dress. Jazz up your Colts game-day outfit. Conquer cabin fever. And more!

What to buy the Sun King worshipper: a one-size-fits-all sweater. For the beer.

Being one of the “it” guys does have its downside. Haters, says Robinson, want to hate. “I’ve stood next to people—who didn’t know who I was—while they talked shit about my beer,” he says.

The annual suds-and-fundraising event benefits the Phoenix Theatre and featured more than 25 breweries taking part in four hours of beer-swilling fun.
