Which one is the best for breweries?? Looking to hit this in August near time for the Wrigley shows. Thanks for any insight.

    Hey man. Never been but I'd suggest heading to Three Floyds in NW indiana. The gumballhead is amazing and they have great food

    If you come up to Ravenswood area you'll have Half Acre and Begyle close to each other. Move a little further away and Empirical brewing (meh) and Koval distillery aren't far off.

    Revolution's brewpub is worth checking out if you want to check out Logan Square area. The brewery doesn't have much around it.

    All of these are great options. Revolution and Half Acre are my favorites.

    +1 for Half Acre.
    You'll have to go a little further to hit 3Floyds or 2Brothers.
    There's no need to say goodbye

    Half Acre all the way. You can try for FFF, but it's most likely going to be packed and a long wait because it's the weekend.

    I second 3 Floyds. Gumballhead and Zombie Dust are highly sought after here in Indianapolis.
