Warped Wing Brewery looking to expand already

Warped Wing Brewing Company, which opened in downtown Dayton only seven months ago, is already looking to expand.

“We’ve outgrown our space,” Warped Wing co-founder Joe Waizmann said. “We anticipated this would happen, but we figured it would probably happen after two years or so rather than just six or seven months.”

Waizmann said the brewery is seeking to lease a second building for cold storage and dry storage because of strong customer response to the wholesale side of the brewery’s business. Warped Wing is canning its beers in pint cans and distributing the brews to local retail outlets. Its tasting room also has met or exceeded the projections of Warped Wing’s founders, Waizmann said.
