Super Bowl City is BEER CITY

Wandering around downtown Indy watching Super Bowl Activitis the last few days brought a few surprises and a few reminders:

Surprise: Winner's Circle relocated OTB (Off Track Betting) restaurant and bar to 90 N. Pennsylvania Av. just 1 1/2 blocks N of SuperBowl Village and has SEVEN local beers plus other craft beer on tap. (2 Triton, 2 SunKing, Oaken Barrel, Upland,Barley Island) Only $5.50 per pint! Who knew?

Surprise: Velocity Bar in the grand JW Marriott serves several Indiana and local beers. We are used to hotel bars having National Brands. Props to JWM for having local beer!

Surprise: Crowds concentrated on Georgia, Meridian, and Capitol with waves up and down Penn and other streets; but until Friday night Mass Ave and Fountain Square was fairly quiet. Even Friday it was just above a normal Friday night.

Surprise: While there were plenty of blue aluminum beer bottles there really is a lot of local and Indiana and just craft beer available in downtown Indianapolis




IF YOU ARE STILL GOING...

The Free IndyGo busses were full, and one line blew by one of us several times never stopping.

The Shuttle between City Market, Fountain Square, SunKing, and Mass Ave is fabulous. Parking at Fountain Square yesterday was a breeze.



People are generally nice!
