Calling all lovers of sudsy adult beverages!
On Sunday August 22nd, Beer Week kicks off in Dayton with the Beer Pride Parade. The festivities begin at 4:30PM behind Thai9 (in the Oregon District) where beer fans can join Dayton Mayor Gary Leitzell and Joe Waizmann (founder of AleFest) as they tap the ceremonial keg and then head out on a 4 block stroll through the Oregon Historical District.
During Beer Week, Dayton restaurants and retail establishments offer special deals on meals that are paired with craft beers. Dayton Beer Week also provides craft beer makers the ability to show off their small volume brews to the masses. The full schedule of restaurants and keg tappings can be found on their website.
