Garfield Brewery is An Indianapolis Favorite By Catherine Bowie Garfield Brewery is situated in a well-established neighborhood on the southside of Indianapolis and it shares its name with one of the oldest parks in town, Garfield Park. While this brewery is a local favorite, it has open arms for those “neighbors” just passing through the area. Picnic-table style outdoor seating hosts an occasional local musician playing familiar tunes, plus its Roggenbier goes down easy and smooth! Garfield Brewery names several beers after local establishments. The Pleasant Run Milk Stout offers a coffee, dark chocolate combination which is quite satisfactory on a cool evening. The Bean Creek Bock is a dark, roasted, malty lager with 6.6% ABV. St. Catherine Vienne Lager is a malt-forward with a hopbitter finish, for those that enjoy a good “to the bitter end” beer. Sister’s Coffee and Cream Stout contains locally roasted coffee and carries a dark, chocolate flavor. We recommend Sister’s Stout paired with your Saturday morning yoga. A combination can’t be beat. To taste the best of Indianapolis Craft Beers, you must try The Garfield Park Brewery. It awaits your arrival. where the local neighbors gather on a Friday night. Inside seating is available, as well. Garfield Brewery also offers specialty brews for certain occasions. The Valentine’s Day brew boasts a chocolate stout with a strawberry garnish. St. Patrick’s Day warrants a pistachio green ice-cream ale. A variety of winter stouts are created for chilly Indiana winter evenings. If you prefer an IPA, Garfield Brewery carries several. The High-Octane Hazy IPA, with an IBU of 17, is more haze than hop, but has an IPA kick and an ABV of 6.6%. Have you heard of a Roggenbier? It’s a cousin to the German-style Hefeweizen, but made with rye instead of wheat. A Roggenbier features more caramel and banana notes with less spice. The “Fletcher and the Rye”
