Toxic Brew Company

About Us:

The Toxic Brew Company is a brewpub in downtown Dayton's Oregon District. The Toxic Brew Company is the first brewery in over 50 years to produce beer in Dayton, OH.

We are excited to share the Toxic Brew Company beer with Dayton, and contribute to the local craft beer community.

We focus on producing craft beers drawing from a wide range of inspirations. We enjoy high gravity beers, and with a name like "Toxic Brew" how could you not love the high alcohol creations that age like wine, not turn stale after a few months. Don't get us wrong, we produce and personally enjoy a wide range of alcohol content, color, hoppiness, and maltiness in our beer; we try to cover the alcohol, color, bitterness spectrum. We enjoy brewing and sharing our beer and the craft with others. TBC enjoys experimenting so don't expect the exact same beers on tap every day. With our small 7bbl system and love for casks, we try to brew more variety than quantity. Our brewpub in Dayton's Historic Oregon Arts District is where you can enjoy a wide selection of beers in a comfortable setting.

We often get asked how we came up with our name "Toxic Brew" because to some it seems like a terrible idea, and to some genius. So often in fact that we had to dedicate a page on the matter. Short version is that it stems from the fact that ethanol is listed as Toxic and we used to make different tinctures, some more bitter than others. Our logo is our own version of the universal "Toxic" symbol of the skull and cross bones found on warning labels. If you would like to know more, check out the full article here.

We are proud of our place in Dayton's history of brewing, which began in the early 1800's; before The Toxic Brew Company, The City of Dayton had not been home to a brewery in over 50 years!
