You can bring your dogs to the outside sitting area and the food is pretty decent, but the beer is the best craft beer in Indianapolis in my opinion.

She was very attentive, helpful, timely, and friendly. The restaurant serves you pub favorites, including wraps, chicken, soup, salads, pasta dishes, paninis, sandwiches, and burgers. They also have some savory signature cocktails. Be sure to check out their happy hour specials. The place was packed, but I was seated right away. The dining area has televisions to view places around the area. I wasn't really hungry, so I just took a gamble and ordered the Buffalo Cauliflower. It took about 8 minutes for my food to be prepared, and it was hot and fresh. I was very pleased with my order. To my surprise, the cauliflower was very tasty and flavorful. I highly recommend. I highly recommend checking this place out. It has a wonderful vibe and atmosphere, top-notch service, and some delicious food. I hope to make it back here soon.

I was in during the lunch rush but the lone gentleman behind the bar was attentive and made me feel welcome. As far as the ambience, light and refreshing, fairly trendy. The beers were good but the star of my lunch was absolutely "the beast" burger which is a wild boar, bison, elk, and wagyu patty. Easily top 3 burgers ive eaten. Definitely coming back next time im out here to visit family.

Popped in hungry and hot after walking around McCormick's Creek State Park…read more The space itself isn't especially appealing; the exterior is an unassuming brick building-we almost missed it-and the interior is fairly minimal as well. If you have a large crowd you might be challenged. But we weren't there to take in a scene and icy water was brought immediately after we seated ourselves. We were provided paper menus but also check out the digital versions! There were a couple of differences, one was only wording but did result in a side upgrade for one in our party. I got the standard burger and, with the server's recommendation, added bacon jam and aioli to make a smaller version of the double-pattied civilian burger. Delicious and right sized for me. The fries are a must. They're beer battered steak fries, crispy outside, soft and steamy inside. The pulled pork got positive reviews but looked messier than what I wanted to manage in that moment. The menu has a good variety, including a couple of vegetarian options. I was also very happy to find a rye beer with a more modest ABV as I like the spicy bitterness of rye beers but they tend to be more than I want after hiking around on a hot day. Service was great. Our server was familiar with the menu and super friendly. This spot is a great option after a hike in the area, especially if you're cringing at the thought of navigating the student crowd in Bloomington but still want a good meal and beer. Added bonus: fantastic prices.

I enjoyed a Colombian hot dog as a snack, which cost $5.75 and is a hot dog topped with pineapple marmalade, pink sauce, and potato sticks. It's quite tasty, and makes for a nice snack. They also have free popcorn with a purchase if you like. It makes the whole space smell like popcorn!

This weekend they had just released the Deadline variants - so I was lucky enough to try all of them.

Bourbon Barrel Liquidity: An Imperial Golden Lager aged in Bourbon Barrels. Bourbon Barrel Deduction: A Belgian Dubbel Aged in Bourbon Barrels. Experimental Dark Lager: A Dark Lager that was one of my favorite beers I had from them! Deadline (2025): A Belgian Style Stout that serves as the basis of their legendary Barrel Release.

Afterburner is my 259th brewery that I have visited. I am a beer fanatic but am somewhat of an…read moreadmitted beer snob. I'm not a guy who has a sophisticated palate that tastes notes of Madagascaran pine nuts or hints of organic apricot. I just like the beer or I don't. Afterburner is veteran owned local brewery. They don't have food inside but there was a food truck parked out front. The facility is rather large but their beer menu is pretty small. When I went they had 5 beers, 2 ciders and 3 wines on tap. There is also a fenced in area outside with picnic tables so you can let your pets or children off their leash. I had a standard 4 beer flight (just samples here so same thing without the board). I got their Nunquam Fractum (wheat beer), Unscoreable (pale Ale), Midnight (double Imperial Stout) and Mach (hazy IPA). All were solid but the Mach was great. My only criticism is I'd like to see a few more beer styles on the menu and I wish their sticker had their name and location (I'm a nerd with a brewery sticker wall in the garage). Other than those little critiques, it's an awesome place
