Looking for a unique way to experience the bar scene in Indianapolis? Look no further than this self-guided in-app audio tour of the city's best bars! Starting with the Bavarian-style beer hall located in the historic ornate Athenaeum building, you'll savor richly-flavored beer with hot Wurst Platte and learn why did Germans settle in Indy. Next, head to the bar, where you can spot racing celebrities like Josef Newgarden or Charlie Kimball while slamming PBRs in boot-shaped mugs. Next up is Indy’s original cocktail bar where you can sip on the "Hoosier Heritage" – one of their signature Indy cocktails – while taking in the stylish atmosphere. The whiskey bar is up next, where you'll learn about the Prohibition era and enjoy your "Old Fashioned" in the same atmosphere where bootleggers once did business. No bar crawl in Indianapolis would be complete without a stop at the Slippery Noodle, where notorious gangster John Dillinger once drank...and shot. After soaking up the history, head over to the steak house, where you might just rub elbows with celebrities such as Michael Douglas or Katy Perry. The tour ends on Virginia Avenue, a vibrant neighborhood with hip bars, and musical venues. Pop in our recommended arcade retro bar, to return back to the 90s and play classic video games.
