I am moving to Indiana - near from Rensselaer, Fair Oaks - and I am looking for tips of where to live. I was thinking about a city maximum 1h from work, but at the same point where I can have safety, social life, good gyms and etc. I am 35F and I am moving alone. I have visited Crown Point, Valpo, West Lafayette, Lafayette...

Hey folks, as many may know, the only remaining dedicated and consistently stocked homebrew store in the entire Indianapolis area closed at the end of September. This was a huge disappointment for many who had been buying ingredients and equipment as well as receiving advice and guidance from the great employees there for over 30 years. However, homebrewing is still alive in Indy and there are folks that are dedicated to keeping the hobby accessible to those in Central Indiana and beyond. The seeds are being laid for what a future sustainable business or organizational model could be for a homebrew and fermentation cooperative hub in Indianapolis.

The craft beer revolution sprang up from the large increase and passion of homebrewers all around the country. Many of the biggest brands and styles in craft brewing were born because one or more homebrewers had a passion for the hobby and believed it could be something more. Homebrewing accessibility, education, and excitement directly correlate to a better ecosystem for small independent brewing across the city, state, and beyond. If homebrewing struggles, so does craft beer and vice versa.

If you are a homebrewer, are interested in homebrewing, or simply love beer and want to see the industry reverse the struggling trend we all see in the news, I invite you to fill out the linked form below. The form is a general membership interest form to gauge what kind of support there would be around the city for supporting the formation and launch of a homebrew and fermentation cooperative here in Indianapolis. As I said before, the seeds are just being laid for this cooperative and everyone that is interested in getting involved will have a voice in how it is shaped.. This is not simply a plea for financial support from a few folks that think they have everything figured out, the co-op will need people with skills, ideas, and a passion for beer and community. There are many details still to be ironed out for what this co-op will be and the folks that are involved are hoping to find more folks that love beer and want to be a part of building something exciting and new for Indianapolis.

I don't have a ton of details as there are still many items to figure out, but if you do have general questions, feel free to leave them below and I will try to answer them the best I can.

Thanks all!

Just saw a commercial for a Senate race in Florida. It's not the first out of state election commercial that I've seen, it may be the first while I was holding my phone. Why are any political agents spending money in Indiana for a Florida election?

Edit: thanks I did not make the connection to the world series, but with all the Brewers fans on the stands I forgot that a Florida team was playing.

Interesting where they are spending - the article cites 4 races, and 3 of them seem to be in the same region of the House race (Spartz, challenges by Ford) that Trump was "truthing"/boosting - being discussed as well.

Also to Dave Hall in a largely rural district from Brown County to Lawrence County that edges a little into Bloomington.

I'm near the Dave Hall district. In 2024 he had yard signs blanketing the region. This time, at least between Brown and Monroe, just a sprinkling of signs - matched by the number of his opponent.

Any insights?

Hi all,

Live in Bloomington and am heading out today to photograph some fall color. Anyone have a recent report on where it's best? Was either thinking east to Brown county or NW to Turkey Run/Shades.

Don't want generalizations, but anyone actually have recent data on where is currently best this year?

Thanks.

I came across this post on Facebook yesterday from a nearby county to mine. I really would like some advice as to who should be contacted about the situation there. The director seems to be in completely over his head. It seems obvious from just a little investigation on my part, that things like this keep happening under his watch. Some of the comments from past employees and volunteers make the situation seem quite dire.

Several times per year I drive between Bloomington and Chicago, usually on I-65 (although occasionally on US-231 or other parallel routes). Typically I'll stop around the halfway point for fuel, food, etc.

Rather than eating at Subway or McDonalds, what are some good quick places to stop for food that aren't a major chain? Ideally they should not involve a significant detour and offer some kind of counter service instead of sit-down.

Looking for a wedding venue in north Indy/hamilton county are for about 150 people… in the 10-20k range… every place we went to visit feels way over priced in some manner… trying to find something that isn’t so expensive but has that green house/gable look to it… any suggestions?

Where can I find information on candidates who are not listed by party? I’m thinking of judges, school board etc.
