Hoppy’s last visit of the day was at Planetary Brewing. They offer a good variety of brews and their taproom has a second floor accessible via a spiral stairway. They also offer limited seating outdoors. They will be participating in the 6th Annual Southside Sudzfest in German Park on Saturday, June 12th. I have included photos of the visit.
Hoppy had the opportunity to visit two breweries in downtown Greenwood yesterday that are across the street from each other. The first brewery was Hoosier Brewing. They have an extensive list of sours, serve pizza by the slice or the whole pie, and offer axe throwing to their patrons. Images from Hoosier Brewing follow:
Hoppy attended the 1st Anniversary Bash at Black Dog Brewing in Mooresville yesterday. It appeared that everyone was enjoying themselves partaking of the eight special beers brewed for the event, the delicious food supplied by JP’s Steakhouse, and the variety of music provided by Rob Amrhein. If you were unable to attend the event, the following images will hopefully give you an idea of what it was like.

Hoppy attended the 5th Annual Savor Lebanon Craft Beer, Wine, Spirits & Food Fest in the beautiful town square in Lebanon. It was presented by the City of Lebanon in partnership with Indiana On Tap. There were a number of commercial craft brewers and a few home brewers on site. These included Bier, Black Dog, Chapman, Escape Velocity, Field, Goodwood, Hog Molly, Klooz Brewz, Moontown, Thieme & Wagner, Traders and Wabash. Klooz Brewz anticipates opening their brewery in Lebanon, across from the Courthouse, at 125 N. Meridian St., by the end of the month. (I have included pictures of the exterior of their brewpub.) Goodwood is out of Louisville, Kentucky and will be opening a brewpub in downtown Indy, in the former location of The Ram. They also expect to open by the end of the month.
Crazy Horse Hops was also in attendance.
Gary had the pleasure to meet and be interviewed by the Two Beerded Guys. You can check them out here.
Everyone attending the event appeared to have a fun time enjoying friends, imbibing, listening to the music, and playing the games of cornhole and fowling.
Afterwards, Hoppy decided to keep it dank by attending the after party at Moontown Brewing in Whitestown. (Pictures are included of the brewpub.) Their 1915 Room, which frequently has entertainment, was not open due to a wedding reception.

Brew Link Brewery in Plainfield opened a second location last month in Indianapolis, at 714 N. Capitol Avenue, the former location of TwoDEEP Brewing. I visited it yesterday, for the first time, and enjoyed a delicious burger and brew and excellent customer service. A big advantage of this location in downtown Indy, is that they have their own parking lot, making it very convenient for their guests. You might wish to check it out at your earliest convenience.
(I posted a visit to their golf course location in Plainfield, In June of last year.)

Hoppy had his first visit to Cedar Creek yesterday, to quaff an ale, check out their concert venue, and to listen to Austin and Vurn. It did not disappoint, as he spent an enjoyable afternoon at the location in Martinsville.
Their Drink at the Creek concert series begins next month and runs well into October. You can check out the schedule here.
Below are photos of their grounds and facilities.
