Positive energy at a nearby watering hole. There are several of possibilities available to everyone of them. Make sure to view the artwork created by nearby artists; nearly all of it is available for purchase. Should you want to throw some bags, there's a corn hole on the patio. They don't have a kitchen, but they do provide bread sticks, Broadripple bagel chips, and Greek pizza available by the slice. Since everyone is quite talkative, you might meet some new people. Have fun!

Been to all the breweries. Worked at a brewery. This place wins. Great beer. Art for sale. Board games to play. Concert posters everywhere. Neon chalkboard art. Dogs runnin' around. Great service. Awesome music on the speakers. It's PERFECTION.

Great place on the corner of West 96th and Michigan Road just North of the I-465 exit on the NW side of Indy. Cool setting with a layed-back vibe and really great brews on tap, bottled and available to go in growlers or cans. Typically has food trucks in the parking lot and always a friendly and interesting crowd. Bar tenders are happy to explain different brews and provide samples. And the always attendant regulars willingly share opinions and preferences. Great place!

The best brewery in Indianapolis. Mike is really knowledgeable and an awesome guy to talk to while you have a drink! There brews are unique and can't be found in stores, so go in and enjoy!

I live this place to come and chill. The brew is good. They change it with the season, and if you want to buy something for home. They sell cans too.

The beer list is beyond anything I've ever experienced. The staff is very know and can steer you in the right direction if it becomes overwhelming.

Indiana knows how to do craft beer. There are many places around Indy to find excellent examples of Indiana's great craft beer, and Deviate Brewery is one of those places. (Perhaps one of the best?) I visited Deviate to celebrate a friend's birthday. This place is the kind of joint where you can meet friends and hang out. No pretensions: just you and friends and beer and Tool paraphernalia decorating the wall. Oh, and dogs. They allow dogs inside! I saw big dogs (a Great Dane) and small dogs, and there's also a resident dog who works here but was away when I visited. This definitely isn't a place for kids, but if you have furry kids, they are welcome.I wanted to try as many Deviate beers as I could in one sitting, so I got a flight of four beers. The thing about this place is that the beer selections are always changing -- they're constantly innovating here. I got the Bee's Knees Nuts (made with real local honey!), the Bee Boogers (also made with local honey! I like honey!), the Blackberry Beat Drop (very fruity), and the Hop Supremacy. I really enjoyed the beers made with honey -- they were very unusual and nice to sip on. They have about a dozen or more beer selections at one time, and I suggest that you ask the bartenders for their recommendations. That's what I did, and I don't regret my choices.One thing to note: There is no food served at Deviate, but they encourage you to bring your own food or have it delivered there. You can literally plunk yourself down at one of their tables with a bag of food and eat while enjoying a beer. How nice.
