The editorial take
Hop Station puts its weight behind a 34-item draft list that moves from easy lagers to barrel-aged stouts and barleywines, with Indiana breweries well represented. Flights and multiple pour sizes make the list easy to navigate without committing to a full pour. The cocktail side is lighter but includes the IcY iCe, a cold brew and coconut drink with toasted almond bitters. The program reads as beer-first, with cocktails as a secondary option.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Hoosier Gameday Lager from Upland Brewing Company, a 4.7% Vienna Lager at $6 for 16oz. For a richer pour, the Bourbon Barrel Quad Ale from Schlafly is 12% and $10 for 12oz. The IcY iCe cocktail is the named mixed drink if you want something beyond draft.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Beer drinkers who want a broad draft list with Indiana options and the ability to order flights or smaller pours. Those looking for a cocktail-first program will find a smaller selection anchored by the IcY iCe.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Draft pours range from $5.00 to $14.00 depending on beer and pour size. The Hoosier Gameday Lager is $6.00 for 16oz, while the Canadian Breakfast Stout (2018) is $13.00 for 10oz. Flights are available as a 'Flights - 15 Choice of 4' option.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- A frequently updated 34-item draft list with Indiana breweries, multiple pour sizes from 5oz to 16oz, and a dedicated cocktails page that includes a 'Garnish IT' section. The beer range spans lagers, IPAs, barrel-aged stouts, and barleywines.
