Why Companies Choose Us

Not Another Hotel Ballroom.
A Venue People Talk About.

Your attendees have been to a hundred generic conference rooms. They remember none of them. They will remember this — the 1898 brick walls, the oversized original windows, the Edison string lights, and the fact that the father of Hook's Drugs made beer in this building.

This is the only surviving pre-Prohibition brewery in Indianapolis. Downtown, just off I-65, minutes from the Indiana Fever Sports Performance Center and the proposed MLS stadium site. The location works. The space does the rest.
