St. Joseph Brewery & Public House
Indianapolis, IN
I have to admit that I was a bit more impressed with the remarkable architecture of this old church turned brewery than I was with the actual beer, luckily St. Joseph Brewery also has a pretty impressive food menu, which might make it the perfect stop for dinner and drinks.
I arrived late on a Sunday evening after sampling beers from several other Indy breweries and stopping off for dinner nearby. Despite the time, the place was packed, but we were lucky enough to grab two seats at the bar. Having just eaten dinner, our primary focus here was beer. So we promptly looked over the beer menu and decided to go with two flights before calling it a night. Even though it was packed, our bartender did his best to stay on top of things, and service was surprisingly excellent, considering he was the only one working the bar. Our flights arrived after a few minute waits, the beer itself was average, most of my Untappd ratings hovered around the three ratings. However, if I had to pick one beer to go with, it probably would have been the Confessional IPA.
Service here was excellent, and the prices were reasonable, be sure to check out their specials too before placing your order. Overall, St. Joseph is an impressive sight, with some of the most remarkable architecture I have seen in a brewery to date.
