Todd was fantastic. He not only made sure we were taken care of, but he also took part in our fun by carrying on conversations and sharing cool facts about the brewery’s we were visiting. The bus was also super clean and a fun ride! Thanks Todd & Indy Brew Bus for an exciting birthday celebration! We’ll be back!

The tour was great. There was ample time to drink your beer. There was bar food at two places and a regular menu at the third. If you can't finish your beer at one place you can have it in a plastic cup for the bus ride. Elvis was a great guide. He told us stories about each place we went and went to a special location to take group and individual pictures. I had a fabulous time.

What a great time. Elvis was our guide so how could we go wrong. Sent us great pictures of my mom on top of the bus and a three generation picture of my dad, son and me. Bier was awesome. It was a family celebration with people coming from abroad and it was the perfect event for us to commemorate the first PhD in the family. In my opinion it would be hard not to have a good time. Came off perfectly. Thanks so much for a special evening. Recommend the tour to anyone.

Elvis was our driver. He did a fabulous job. It was raining so he picked us up where we parked so we didn’t have to walk so far in the rain. He was an awesome host and photographer for us. He had a few surprises along the way. I’d recommend this for something fun to do. This was our group’s second time to do this and we’ll be back again for certain

Best way to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. Got friends together, drink around town, not worry about driving. Peter, our driver, was friendly and informative. Enjoyed the different atmospheres at each brewery. We rented the entire bus; communication was all via email but very thorough. I had many questions along the way during the booking process and Andy was quick to respond. The bracelet system made it very simple to acquire a beer at each stop on the tour. Masks were used by all, of course.

Our driver, Micah, was awesome! We changed our pick up location at the last minute, and he told us about another bar we should visit and dropped us off there at the end of the night. He also gave us a good recommendation for a bar we went the next day.
The breweries themselves were just okay. We first went to Fountain Square. The space wasn’t good, but the beer was just okay. The second brewery was Two DEEP, and I didn’t like either of our samples and didn’t order any other beer. The food was good though.
The third brewery was Gugganhaus, and it had the best beer by far. I would definitely go back there on a return trip to Indy. The beer at the last brewery, Sun King, was good, but the service was terrible. It’s like they looked down on us because we were with the group.
Overall, I would recommend the Indy Brew Bus. It’s fun to be chaperoned without having to worry about driving. This is the second time we did a tour, and i felt basically the same that time.

Feathers & Fermentations was a perfect way to learn more about birds and hidden natural gens in my own backyard. I am embarrassingly clueless when it comes to birds, yet I find them fascinating. The low key experience was ideal for me start learning. Getting to do it with a local hard cider in hand made it that much better!

Highly recommend for getting friends and family together. We had stops at four different breweries. They were all fantastic. The beer was great and the staff was welcoming. Our driver Rex Scott was very knowledgeable and accommodating. We will definitely be requesting him on our next brew bus trip.

My husband & I had a wonderful time. We both enjoy breweries and this was a great experience for my husband for his Valentines present. We would highly recommend your company to others. Our driver/tour guide Elvis was the best!!
My recommendation for future Holiday/Special Occasions is for your company to offer special treats such as chocolate covered strawberries, chocolates or festive cookies for that holiday.

My daughter and I had a great trip on the bus. The breweries we went to were all good. We bought beer at all of them.
Our driver Rex was also very good. He made a point to visit with each group at each brewery. That was great.

I'll be in Indy for a quick stop overnight. Any idea where I can buy some 3 Floyds to take back to NY? tia
Written December 6, 2018
You should be able to find some at any Liquor store. I would recommend calling some ahead of time to see if they have it. Big Red Liquors is usually pretty good.

Agree with Lisa K. I don't think where you stay is an issue. We stayed at the Residence on the canal and they picked us up right in front. A group of girls parked nearby and got on in the same stop.

How much is the tour and how long does it take?
Written August 30, 2015
Tickets are $30 per person and includes transportation to and from your downtown, Broad Ripple or Greenwood pick up location to 4 local breweries on a three-hour tour, approximately 3 samples of beer at each brewery, bottles of water on the bus, coolers on board to keep your purchased growlers cold, a Personal Sampling Scorecard to help you keep track of the all the beers you like and the unforgettable experience of drinking with friends on a bright green school bus. Saturday tours are about 3 hours, 15 min. and all others are around 3 hours.

If there are only two of us can we join another group for a tour?
Written August 30, 2015
Absolutely! Tickets are sold on an individual basis, so you can buy 1 - 14 tickets. Most of our tours are combined of smaller groups. Cheers!
