27 Breweries to Celebrate American Craft Beer Week May 16-22

By

Just a few years ago, the term ‘microbreweries’ was used to refer to what we now call ‘craft breweries’. This term was used to distinguish small-scale brewers from ‘macro’ brewers. The pioneers of the micro revolution were two breweries — the Boston Beer Company, which produces the beer Samuel Adams, and Sierra Nevada. Both breweries were some of the earliest adopters of the hallmarks of craft brewing and achieved success regardless of their small production scale.

In 2006 American Craft Beer Week was established as an  annual springtime salute to local beer and local breweries. It’s an opportunity to honor the hometown gathering places that give our communities their unique flavor. We invite you to toast the local businesses that have endured tough times to ensure our glasses, growlers, and beer fridges remain full. Head over to your local brewpub or taproom and enjoy a pint, or grab a sixer or growler to-go.

Grab your Dayton Ale Trail passport and head to the  local breweries to celebrate.  We reached out to all the breweries and have  listed special events for those that shared them with us:

A statewide celebration is the From the Heart fundraiser collaboration beer that directly supports the mission of the Ohio Craft Brewers Association: to promote, preserve, diversify and unify Ohio’s craft brewing industry.

More than 70 Ohio breweries are gearing up to celebrate  American Craft Beer Week with a special statewide collaboration brew. From the Heart: Volume 2 is a fundraising beer to benefit the Ohio Craft Brewers Association, the non-profit trade organization working to promote and protect the state’s craft beer industry.

The From the Heart fundraiser was made possible through the generous support of OCBA allied business members Blue Label Packaging, the Country Malt Group, Crosby Hops, Great Western Malting, Lemon Grenade Creative and Origin Malt who donated ingredients and packaging materials for the project.

Breweries participating in the collaboration purchased the donated ingredients from the Ohio Craft Brewers Association and brewed a variation on a hazy IPA recipe developed by Chris Davison of Wolf’s Ridge Brewing and Dan Shaffer of Land-Grant Brewing Company. The name “From the Heart” – coined by Krista Alvarado of 4KD Crick Brewery in Defiance – was chosen last year out of dozens of suggestions from our members.

The Ohio Craft Brewers Association counts nearly three-quarters of Ohio’s 396 independently-owned craft breweries among its membership. The organization provides a wide range of member services, including legislative advocacy at the Ohio Statehouse, brewery marketing through programs like the Ohio On Tap passport app, technical and educational conferences and seminars, and community-building connections between breweries and the businesses that support the industry

Lock 27th Re-Releases Sunfish-American Pale Ale

By

Lock 27 Brewing has announced their 3rd of 10 historic beers being released out of the Lock 27 Brewing vault to celebrate their 10th Anniversary: Sunfish – American Pale Ale.
Sunfish was Lock 27 Brewing’s first Pale Ale brewed in 2014 and was the nickname of the actual Lock 27 located in Miamisburg along the Miami and Erie Canal. So naturally, it felt fitting to be the name of one of their earliest brews.
Sunfish now stands as an ode to the early days of craft beer. A classic American Pale Ale brewed with Belma hops, giving us hints of strawberry & melon citrus flavors. It’s light in body with a perfect malt foundation that keeps the bitterness as bay.
Sunfish will be released Thursday May, 12th at 5pm in the Lock 27  Brewpubs!
ABV – 5.8%
IBU – 43

Lock 27 Release Two New Beers

By

Lock 27  Brewing is releasing two new beers today inspired and crafted for Cinco de Mayo, these new brews are available on tap in our brewpubs for a limited time!
Mexican Lager
To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, they are releasing a traditional Mexican Lager using yeast straight from Mexico City.
While most other US craft breweries take inspiration for Mexican brews from a certain light beer with lime often found on beaches, Lock 27 looked to Modelo Negra for inspiration when crafting the perfect Cinco de Mayo Lager. The nutty flavor notes with hints of caramel create a flavorful darker beer and easily drinkable brew. This beer has been properly lagered for over a month, giving us that beautiful crisp, clean lager finish.
ABV – 5.5%
IBU – 22
Margarita Gose
The brew team got a little creative with this lime-packed sour beer, getting this brew as close to the classic lime margarita that a beer can get. Margarita Gose is loaded with lime juice and puree, orange peel, and a touch of agave nectar – finished with coriander and Himalayan pink salt, for the ultimate margarita flavor!
ABV – 5.5%
IBU – 10

10 Beers for 10 Years at Lock 27

By

Today is the 2nd release in Lock 27’s 10 Beers for 10 Years promotion releasing a beer from the Lock 27 Brewing vault to celebrate their 10th Anniversary! The re-released brews were made by Lock 27 at some point over the past decade but were eventually retired – until now. In coordination with the re-releases, customers can earn a chance to win limited edition anniversary prizes. With each 10th anniversary beer purchase, customers will be offered a stamp card that they can fill up with stamps for each anniversary beer purchased. The more stamps collected, the bigger the prize.

Release # w is 1492, an American Red IPA, was first brewed in 2013 as part of a Hop 101 experimental brewing series educating Lock 27 Brewing customers on the distinct characteristics of different hops. The Columbus hop was a fan favorite—enough to be officially named 1492 and be put on tap a few more times through 2017.

This brew is the perfect blend of strong hop flavor and sweet malts, with a moderately strong bitter taste that retains a dry finish and lean body – which makes IPAs so beloved. Its flavorful notes of caramel, toffee, and dark fruit make this Red IPA so distinctive, with an overall balance of sweet and hoppy.  Ohio.ABV- 7.7% and IBU- 77

Over the next month, Lock 27 Brewing will focus on the often-overlooked stories of this historic year from the perspective of the Native American community. They’ll be holding an educational event at the end of the month to highlight and celebrate Indigenous culture, contributions, and innovations. They’ll be sharing what the year 1492 meant to Native American people, and how their global contributions shaped the world that we know today. $1 of every 1492 purchase will be donated to the Sunwatch Indian Village to support the Native American community in Dayton,

This historic brew is hitting the taps at Lock 27 on April 14th at 5pm! Stay tuned on the 10th of each month for the next release.

Killer New Collaboration Beer From Warped Wing.

By

Warped Wing has just announced their newest collaboration-  Killer Brownie® Brown Ale.
A culinary meld of craft goodness. You will get aromas of deep, rich chocolate up front. Followed up with sips of chocolate, caramel, vanilla and molasses. It’s like a brownie in liquid form. And it’s killer.
The Killer Brownie Company is owned and operated by the same family as Dorothy Lane
Market. What started as one unforgettable fudge-y, gooey, double-layered brownie nestled
with pecans and velvety caramel—The Original—has grown into a robust offering of
gourmet brownie flavors, including seasonal additions.
“Killer Brownie is a Dayton staple and we’ve always wanted to partner with them on a beer.”
said Nick Bowman, VP/Sales & Marketing and Managing Partner at Warped Wing. “This
project has been a few years in the making but here we are and I’m excited to bring forth into
the world our liquid version of the famous Killer Brownie!”, said Bowman.
“The folks at Warped Wing are true masters of their craft.” said Jessica Uttinger, Director of
Marketing and Creative Services at Killer Brownie®. “When we began discussing a
collaboration in 2019, it was immediately clear—they would create a brew that mirrors the
decadence Killer Brownie® is known for. Their commitment to quality is matched only by
their love of community, which made them ideal partners to work with. Gathering people
together to share joyful moments over food and drink is something they’ve long been known
for, and it’s an honor to have the Killer Brownie® name on one of their cans.” said Uttinger.
Killer Brownie Brown Ale will launch in the Dayton & Springboro Taprooms on Thursday,
February 3rd – just ahead of Valentine’s Day. It will also be available at Warped Wing’s new
Taproom location opening on Friday, February 4th in Mason, OH. The beer will be available
on draught for on-site consumption and in 6-pack 12 oz. cans to go. Custom branded glasses
will be available for purchase in the Warped Wing Taprooms (while supplies last) to make for
an unforgettable and commemorative experience.

Warped Wing Sets Opening Date for Mason Location

The Warped Wing Brewpub & Smokery is located at 5650 Tylersville Rd (at the corner of 42 and Tylersville Rd) and the Grand Opening will take place on Friday, February 4th. The 13,000 square foot facility boasts a large Taproom featuring a menu filled with smoked foods along with an outdoor biergarten opening in the Spring, a small pilot brewing system, and flexible event space.
“It was definitely a unique and rewarding experience melding what was once an old world Irish pub and a fine dining restaurant into a brewery and taproom but our contractors and design team knocked it out of the park,” said Nick Bowman, VP of Sales & Marketing at Warped Wing. “I’m proud of what we’ve put together and excited to share it with the Mason community.”

Brewmaster & Managing Partner John Haggerty is also looking forward to the new space opening in Mason. “I am looking forward to working on some collaboration beers with our fellow Masonians! We already have something in the pipeline with Sonder, a Hoppy Red Rye Ale, and am looking forward to getting together with the other guys in town. It will be great to rub elbows with these guys and be able to learn how they think about beer” said Haggerty. The Sonder collaboration beer, Ryesing Tides, will be on tap for the Grand Opening.
 
Erin O’Neill, Culinary Director & Director of Retail Operations, will bring an innovative and eclectic menu to complement the robust beer selection, similar to that of the Warped Wing Barrel Room & Smokery which opened in Fall of 2020 in Springboro. There will be a major focus on smoked meat/food items and many of the dishes will feature Warped Wing beers as ingredients. “The smoker is delivered and the smell of smoking meats will soon fill the air” said O’Neill. “It is very exciting to bring our Warped culinary experience to Mason and the surrounding areas. We are building a great team and are excited to put our stamp on an already great food scene.” 
Other libations will include hard cider, wine, and a spirits menu with a focus on specialty cocktails, as well as non-alcoholic options like mocktails and housemade sodas, like Root Beer.
