The sense of community is one compelling thing about Indiana's beer scene. Its modern roots are in the Broad Ripple Brewpub, founded more than 26 years ago. John Hill planted the seeds of what became a massive family tree, with brewers going from his brewery to start their own and continuing that brewpub tradition of providing a local gathering space as well as a springboard for other brewers. There's a ton of camaraderie that originated in the Brewpub and has helped our industry substantially.
So it's always great to see John at our events. In addition to starting Indiana's longest-operating brewery, he also founded the Brewers of Indiana Guild and is always the last to leave our events. I'll never forget the last Winterfest, when he ended up with a back full of stickers as brewers came up to him and patted him on the back, leaving their brewery sticker behind.
He later claimed that he knew what they were doing, but I'm not so sure. Tristan: Last year we launched the IN Beer Brigade , a membership program allowing Indiana craft beer fans to directly join the Guild and support the Hoosier brewing community. We were ecstatic to partner with 3 Floyds and Indiana's northwestern breweries on the first guild-led collaboration beer of its kind in the nation, Corn King IPA , which we released during a month-long tour and release parties at breweries across the state.
In , we're partnering with Sun King to host a Central Indiana collaboration beer, so look for details on that and the associated parties very soon at www. We've also partnered with Do to power our new events page at drinkIN. We're excited to announce that we're adding another festival to our lineup, which will take place in Broad Ripple in late And we'll be at more brewery parties than ever before to celebrate their anniversaries and special releases. With the impressive growth of the industry, we're focusing more than ever on quality.
Two educational tracks — technical brewing and business operations — help brewers from across the state with issues they're facing in this increasingly competitive landscape. And the Guild's relatively new affiliate membership program is growing quickly, with a wide range of businesses joining to support our brewery members. Finally, I'd like to give a huge shout out to HopCat, who have graciously supported all of our festivals in big ways for the past several years.
Stop by their Winterfest booth for some great beer. Winterfest will take place February 4, , — p. Rachel D. Russell was the digital content manager, editor and a contributing writer for Edible Indy. She has All rights reserved Edible Indy Foundation. Skip to main content. Search form Search.
