Our Story

Born from a love of
good company & great beer

Crimson City Brewing Company started as a home-brewing hobby in a Bloomington garage — and grew into something the whole neighborhood could gather around. We opened our doors in 2018 with a simple belief: that a great brewery should feel like a living room, not a stadium.

Every batch we brew is small enough to care about and big enough to share. We source local ingredients whenever possible, partner with Indiana hop growers, and treat every style — from session lagers to barrel-aged stouts — with the same restless curiosity.

Our taproom on East Winslow Road is where those beers come alive. It's casual, it's warm, and it's always ours to share with you.
