At 2:30pm today Dayton’s oldest family run Beer Distributor, Bonbright, partners with the Dayton area’s oldest Brewers, Dayton Beer Company, to sign an exclusive beer distribution agreement.
According to Chris Fritz of Bonbright, “good liquid is easy to sell” and since Pete Hilgeman opened his new 4,000-square-foot beer hall and tap room and a 4,000-square-foot production brewery the beers he’s been brewing has just continued to improve. This deal will allow Hilgeman to concentrate on brewing while Bonbright Distributing will take care of getting those beers out in the nine county area they trade in. Fritz says, “we only sell beer we believe in and we believe in Pete and the beers he’s brewing.”
Now that the new facility has been open for about 6 weeks, the next new thing will be canning the brews they are making at the Madison Street location and the distribution deal can make that a big success.
Brock and Pete seal the deal with a beer! This is the first of the local breweries to sign a distribution deal.
