What Indianapolis's weather means for breweries
Winter in Indianapolis is cold without being severe, with January averaging a high of 36°F, so a midweight hoodie and a crewneck that fits under a coat cover most regulars through the deep-winter months (December to February). July averages a high of 85°F, warm enough to justify a fresh tee and cap release timed to the start of patio season (May to September). Precipitation is generous, about 41 inches a year, so an embroidered rain shell or coach jacket is worth stocking for staff and regulars. Snowfall of about 26 inches a year is enough to make a cuffed beanie an easy add-on at the register from the first flurries into early spring. About 106 nights a year fall to freezing, enough to keep hoodies and crewnecks in front from late fall into spring.
