Mark your calendars for an epic day of craft beer, smoked eats, live music, and summer vibes! Warped Wing Brewing Anniversary Party is bringing back their fan-favorite Anniversary Beer Bash & Urban Smokeout on Saturday, May 17th, 2025, starting at noon at their original Downtown Dayton Taproom. It’s the ultimate way to celebrate 11 years of amazing brews and community!
Founded in 2014, Warped Wing Brewing Company has become a beloved staple in Dayton’s craft beer scene, known for its innovative brews and deep ties to local history. Named after the “warped wing” design of the Wright Brothers’ early aircraft, the brewery pays homage to Dayton’s aviation heritage while crafting beers that soar with flavor. From their iconic Gamma Bomb IPA to unique creations like Ermal’s Belgian Style Cream Ale—inspired by a local soda recipe from the 1940s—Warped Wing blends tradition with creativity, making every sip a celebration of the city they call home.
Beyond their stellar beers, Warped Wing is all about fostering community and good times. Their Downtown Dayton Taproom isn’t just a place to grab a pint—it’s a gathering spot where friends, families, and beer lovers come together to share stories, laughter, and unforgettable moments. With a passion for quality and a knack for throwing epic events like the Anniversary Bash, Warped Wing continues to raise the bar for craft beer culture in Ohio and beyond. Cheers to 11 years of brewing excellence!
“Last year’s 10-year bash was a total hit, so we’re doing it again!” says Nick Bowman, Co-Founder and VP of Sales & Marketing. “Think cold beers, smoky flavors, great friends, and live tunes to kick off summer in style!”
