After 21 years organizer Joe Waizmann is taking a different approach to Dayton’s largest and longest running beer festival. This year beers will be arranged by categories, so beer lovers can taste and compare their favorites rather easily.
Categories include Barrel Aged, Belgian, Cask, Cider, Hoppy, Malty, Sour, Quaffable, Fruit, Vegetable & Herb and a special section for Wine and Dayton Brewed beers. The event opens for VIP guests today, Aug 24th at 3pm and for general admission at 4pm and runs through 7pm at the Dayton Convention Center.
Below is the list before being categorized:
A gunman opened fire in Dayton’s Oregon District early on August 4th, killing nine people and wounding at least 3o others. A horrific event in our beloved entertainment district.

But now it’s happened to us. How many of you were checking in with friends and family all day, checking, praying that none of their names would appear on the victim list. Many of us got calls and texts and email from others around the country and even the world, because when they hear Dayton on CNN they think of us?
My second thought- Dayton is strong.

When of the cool things about Dayton is how small town it really is. Today I was at the WDTN Studio to promote the Legends for Relief Concert, featuring Dayton’s hometown funk bands- The Ohio Players, Zapp, the Original Lakeside and Steve Arrington. I turn around and there is the Queen of Comedy,

When your bowl is ready, they will bring it to your table.
