“We still have all of the great favorites,” Brock said. “But we added a large selection of new sandwiches and full-plate items, and some vegetarian and vegan options as well.”

The new dishes include an Eat Your Veggies stir-fry, and Fish Tacos that consist of smoked salmon with IPA-jalapeno slaw and citrus-lime sauce, served on a corn tortilla shell.

The Pork Lord sandwich boasts sliced ham and bacon topped with a fried egg, horseradish aioli and ghost pepperjack cheese, while the Fun Guy in the Garden consists of a grilled portobello mushroom cap stuffed with grilled peppers, onions and garlic, served on a bed of fresh spinach with mozzarella cheese and a balsamic drizzle.

Returning favorites include Salmon B.E.L.T., Henry Street Chips, Turkey Avo, and Ohio-raised beef burgers, Brock said.

The cooperatively owned — but open to the public — brewpub at 1600 E. Fifth St. in Dayton also released a new beer this week: Fifth Date, a stout brewed with lactose, fermented with cherry, and conditioned with chocolate, available in 22-ounce bottles. A new brewpub logo also is part of the late-winter changes.
