June is always a milestone month for us. It’s full of anniversary planning, celebrating how far we've come, and looking back on the years of memories we've created within these walls. For many of the past 8 years, we’ve featured different local artists each month that inspire us and make our taproom a more beautiful space. Their pieces really pull the room together.
This month is extra special. We are featuring twelve of our past artists who were all given the same prompts: Branch & Bone, Beer, and Dayton. All of them used some interpretation of these prompts that create a connective thread for our anniversary month. We couldn't be happier with the way their pieces have come together to create a showcase that reflects our community.
Pop in to check out, admire, and purchase (if the urge possesses you!) any of these works throughout the month.
And make sure to join us on the 13th for all of our anniversary 8 shenanigans!
We’re really starting to feel that summer weather creeping in.
With that in mind, it’s sour season! Today we’re releasing Passsionfruit Salty Salute on draft and 4-packs of 16oz cans to-go.
This gose, a tart wheat-ale with a bit of salt added during the boil, is loaded with almost 600 pounds of passionfruit and is perfect for pool-side sitting, patio sipping, or as a lawn-mowing beer. Think of it as an electrolyte beverage for adults! Tart, salty, sweet, and completely refreshing!
We also neglected to post about the release of Mirage, a fan-favorite WCIPA, last week! It’s packed with those “cheater” hops, Citra and Mosaic, for a dank, dry, citrus fruit-forward punch that’ll keep you coming back again and again. We love our clear beer!
Both beers are available when we open at four. And keep your eyes peeled through the rest of the week as we release more info about our 8th Anniversary, coming up Saturday June 13th! We’ll have a lot going on!
First Anniversary 8 details coming in!
Our friends at Greek Street are going to bring their truck down and will be hanging out slinging amazing gyros, kebabs, and Greek fries from noon-6. Don’t sleep on their chicken, it’s incredible. These fine folks make amazing food, serve it with a smile, and if you look really closely, you may notice that one of the guys on the truck bears a slight resemblance to our taproom manager, Jama. Don’t mention that to Wyatt though. He already has to have her as a mom. We don’t want draw more attention to it.
Come grab some great beer and some soul-fulfilling Greek food and celebrate eight years of Branch & Bone!
Join us on Saturday June 13th at Noon when we open for our Anniversary Party.
Expect our yearly bottle release of Bourbon Barrel Aged Feral Dawn and a special variant of BA Feral Dawn also on draft and in bottles. Details on the variant and other special draft only beers coming soon.
This year we are also stepping things up with a brand new beer releasing in cans, a Triple West Coast IPA. More details on that one coming soon as well so follow the event for more info.
On site serving up amazing food for everyone starting at Noon for afternoon service will be our friends at Greek Street. Later in the evening our pal Mike with Tales of Cheddar and Ale will be posted up in the taproom with his amazing charcuterie offerings.
8 years is big and we wouldn't be here without you. So hope to see you all out to raise a glass to not only what we are doing but to all of you for your continued support. Here's to many more!
NEW BEER ALERT!
We have a brand new beer releasing today, along with a beer we haven’t released in almost four years!
If you’re one of those folks who’ve been lovingly hounding us to release Dream Wax for a good long while, your prayers have been answered! And we went ahead and Double Dry-Hopped it just to make it extra special for the folks who truly love it. This oat cream IPA is loaded with Citra Cryo and Nelson Sauvin, so it’s citrusy, bright, and has a slight apricot flavor, then finishes as smooth as a gentle Spring breeze. You’re going to love it.
We’re also releasing a new Pub Ale that we’re absolutely thrilled with. Stumbling Through Memories is an English Pale Ale that beautifully blends malt and hops. A perfectly clear, straw-colored gem that perfectly balances malt flavor with a crisp hop finish that doesn’t overwhelm the palate. This one might be our new favorite pub beer.
Both of these are on draft and in cans today. Stumbling Through Memories will also be on the beer engine later this week!
Join us Saturday March 7th when we open at Noon for our annual International Women's Day Beer Release, Thanks, It Has Pockets Vol 8. on draft and in cans to-go.
Late last month, in preparation for International Women’s Day, the women who work at Branch & Bone gathered friends, family, and significant others to brew Thanks, It Has Pockets! Vol. 8, a collaboration with our friends at Lily's Dayton.
Jama, our incredible taproom manager, Emily, then GM of Lily’s, and Katie Mae, bar manager of Lily’s, came together to pick a favorite Lily’s cocktail that we could morph into a delicious beer to showcase our shared loves of food, drink, family, and friends! Together, they decided on X-Ray Spex, a mango, passionfruit, lime, and vanilla cocktail that pays homage to the 1970’s woman-lead punk rock group of the same name.
The crew brewed a Berliner Weisse base that we packed with loads of mango, passionfruit, lime, and Madagascar vanilla for a tart and sweet punch that will leave you ready for many more.
A portion of proceeds from this beer will be donated to the Artemis Domestic Violence Center of Dayton, who work with the local community to help victims of domestic violence heal and live free of further domestic abuse.
It’s that time again for our annual ode to all things big and dark in beer.
Join us Saturday February 21st when we open at noon for our Big Beer Bacchanal. This party celebrates some of our biggest, boldest and beers with a tap list full of High ABV, Dark, or Barrel Aged beers. We have a very special barrel aged stout releasing in bottles as well as 4 pack cans of a brand new Triple IPA.
Tales of Cheddar and Ale will be on site with Charcuterie boxes for sale.
More details on the special draft list and packaged beers to come over the next week so stay tuned. But save the date and prepare yourself for the big beer event of the year!
Closed today Sunday Jan 25th due to snow.
We are staying home today. You should too. There’s a lot of snow and it doesn’t look like it’s stopping soon.
Keep a look out for something fun and exciting tomorrow on our socials and hopefully the snow will be cleared enough for a special surprise.
Cheers!
Join us in the taproom as we celebrate all things Coffee Golden Ale with our annual Dimmer Day.
At Noon when we open on Saturday January 17th we will be releasing fan and staff favorite beer, Dimmer - English Golden with Coffee, on draft and in cans. We will also be releasing draft and cans of a very special variant of Dimmer, to be announced soon.
In addition to these two releases, we will be featuring six special draft-only, donut inspired Dimmer variants while they last. As is tradition, we will also feature a special hot Dimmer offering to keep you warm while it lasts.
So mark your calendars, this is surely an event not to be missed!
