In August 2012 Indeed's taproom officially opened to the public and it began distributing kegged beer to bars and restaurants. In October 2012 they began canning and distributing their two flagship beers, Day Tripper American Pale Ale and Midnight Rider American Black Ale, to liquor stores throughout the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.
In July 2013, a $250,000 expansion was announced with the aim of doubling the brewery's capacity to 6,400bbl per year. In August 2013, Indeed reported it was on track to brew over 6,000bbl by the end of 2013 and that its beers were now available in over 300 bars, restaurants and liquor stores throughout the Twin Cities metro area. The brewery further expanded its distribution to outstate Minnesota in 2014.
The brewery won a silver medal for their Mexican Honey Imperial Lager at the 2014 Great American Beer Festival. In late 2014 they also revealed the first of a series of wood-aged sour beers they had developed at a separate facility near their brewery.
