The 2025 Dayton Ale Trail has kicked off with stops at 28 breweries throughout the region.

“This year, Entropy in Miamisburg was added as a new brewery,” said Jason Moore, an organizer of the Dayton Ale Trail and co-owner of Crooked Handle Brewing Co. “Beyond that, it’s business as usual promoting our amazing Greater Miami Valley Breweries.”

In 2024, 1,500 people completed the challenge and received a sling bag branded with the Dayton Ale Trail logo. There are a few 2024 prizes left for those with completed passports. The deadline was Dec. 31, so the remaining prizes are first come, first served and no more will be ordered, Moore said.

The deadline to complete the 2025 passport is Dec. 31. The passport lists Moeller Brew Barn as a stop, but a stamp is not required since the brewery has closed.

“Grab your Passport at one of the participating breweries and we will see you on the trail,” Moore said.
