Carillon Brewing Company reopens with a new ‘brewing experience’
Carillon Brewing
DAYTON — Company reopened last week with a new “more casual brewing experience” and new hours, Dayton History officials said.
Visitors will see changes to the brewery model, returning to a focus on the origins of beer-making and historical demonstrations, said Brady Kress, president and CEO of Dayton History.
A new ordering system is in place. Patrons can order flights of beer, cocktails or food from a streamlined menu of favorites at the bar.
They will also be able to pick their own seats inside the brewery or in the outdoor biergarten framed by sycamore trees.
The brewery-restaurant is open daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
