About Chilly Water Brewing Company
Chilly Water Brewing Company is a brewpub on Virginia Avenue in Indianapolis. It was founded in 2014 and sits in the Fletcher Place neighborhood, on the Cultural Trail. A love of music shows up in the beer names, the branding and the regular live performances.
Twelve beers are on tap at a time, and everything is brewed on site. The regular lineup includes Built to Last Pilsner, One Hop Wonder IPA, Blood on the Tracks Blood Orange IPA and Santeria Mexican Lager. New limited releases show up every month.
The kitchen cooks from scratch. The menu runs to burgers, wings, nachos and wraps. If you skip beer, there is also hard seltzer, cider, wine and non-alcoholic drinks.
