#DaytonStrong IPA Released today!

By

Dayton Brewery Alliance releasing #daytonstrong IPA to help Tornado victims as ongoing effort.

The Dayton Brewery Alliance is continuing their relief efforts by collaborating on a beer called #daytonstrong IPA. All proceeds of the beer will go to the Dayton Foundation as part of an ongoing effort to help Dayton area people in need after the devastating tornadoes passed through the area on Memorial Day weekend 2019.

 

Several of the breweries will be making versions of #daytonstrong IPA to serve in their taprooms and to sell to other member breweries of the Dayton Brewers Alliance.  Warped Wing will be canning over 1,000 cases to be distributed out to the market.

“2019 has been a heartfelt and difficult year for the people of Dayton”, said Nick Bowman, VP/Sales & Marketing and Managing Partner at Warped Wing. “That said, it’s amazing how people in our community come together to help friends and neighbors in need. It speaks to the level of character, care and giving that makes our city so great”, said Bowman.

“The can embodies a minimalistic, purposefully under designed look as not to over-shadow what we are trying to do. This is about all the people in need. Our neighbors, many, who have lost everything”, said Bowman

Copy on the front of the can reads:

Through darkness comes light.
Through fear comes compassion.
Through tragedy comes triumph.

 

The release of the beer will follow the schedule below:

— Taproom Release at all the Dayton Area Breweries on Saturday, August 17th

– Warped Wing will start distributing cans only to bars, restaurants and retails accounts starting Monday, August 19th

 

This project was made possible by the following sponsors and partners who contributed either raw materials or services. Those groups are as follows; TRIPACK, LD Carlson, Century Label, Country Malt Group, John Pattison, Brewer’s Supply Group

 

 

Local Author Pens Dayton Beer History Book

By

With nearly twenty breweries in the Greater Miami Valley, Dayton’s craft beer resurgence is no longer a surprise to most people. However, today’s breweries draw upon a long brewing tradition in the area, one with historical roots that many may find staggering.

Local author Timothy R. Gaffney’s new book, Dayton Beer: A History of Brewing in the Miami Valley, takes an in-depth look at how Dayton made beer and how beer made Dayton. By piecing together thousands of public records, Gaffney paints a coherent view of the Miami Valley’s brewing heritage as it existed leading up to Prohibition. And it’s worth noting that Gaffney timed the release of his book with the centennial anniversary of that failed experiment.

Just as the Miami Valley’s brewing trail extends beyond the borders of Dayton proper, so does Gaffney’s report. In covering not only Montgomery, but also five other surrounding counties—Auglaize, Clark, Darke, Miami, and Shelby—Gaffney depicts a broad picture of how interconnected the brewing community was and how integral is was to the daily life of Southwest Ohio citizens. He explores not only the breweries themselves, but also the individuals behind the beer.

Gaffney is touring the Miami Valley this fall, giving a talk about his book. Fittingly enough, the talks are nearly all held at breweries (except the Barrel House, which is a Dayton beer institution in its own right). His first talk was Wednesday, August 7th at Warped Wing, but if you missed that event, he has seven more appearances scheduled. See the schedule below, or find more details on Gaffney’s FaceBook events page: https://www.facebook.com/DaytonBeerBook/
