Carillon Brewing Company and Dayton BBQ Company: A Culinary Journey Through Craft Beer and Barbecue

Outstanding service food was great good BBQ and atmosphere had a very rustic feeling and a great beer selection if their brewed beers

Amazing staff! Amazing food! Ordered a flight of beer! So good. It’s very smooth. We ordered the frontier’s man feast, with loaded Mac, cornbread and cornbread! Everything was to die for.very calming and quiet. I love it here

It was sad to see some of the lower reviews on here because we have never had anything but an amazing experience here. We just went this evening (3rd time since Dayton BBQ took ownership) and the food was fantastic as usual. We had 2 tallow burgers, chicken strips, greens, mac n cheese and baked beans. We also had a new dessert that was amazing. We had the chance to meet the owners and they are as nice as they come. I have had the BBQ in the past and it was also very nicely done. I can't imagine anyone having a negative experience here but some people look for things to be upset about. I highly recommend this place and we will be going back.

Your stomach will scream once you walk in as the smell of smoke and bbq hits your nose. This is a large two story building with plenty of space for everyone. The decor is that of an old Alehouse with an open brick fire smoking up the goodness. The workers are dressed in late 18th century period clothing to add to the atmosphere. I started with a Cream Ale [Pre-Prohibition Ale] with an ABV of 4.4. Very clean finish with an ever so very slight bite. I went with their Cattleman’s Dog with a side of their award winning Alehouse Mac & Cheese. They have 3 BBQ sauces; Regular, Spicy and Carolina Mustard. These are on the runny side, so be careful when using them. The Mac & Cheese was thick and I added some of the spice BBQ to kick it up a notch. Not sure if award winning to my taste buds as it seemed bland. The dog was heavy with all the extras and messy as heck. Oh what funtimes ahead with messy hands. I added the regular BBQ as well to the hot dog. The hot dog could have been a bit hotter and I think frying it would make the experience more enjoyable. Otherwise, the hot dog was a good pick. With a tip, it was $29 for me. I left with that wonderful smokey smell too, so I had to change when I got home. Even one of the waiters mentioned that there should be an outlet for the smoke to go outside.

The service was very good. The food was okay, however, the macaroni and cheese was stiff and bland, the collard greens were a bit tart. Probably too much vinegar. Since we were a large group we had a limited menu. The pulled pork portal was very good. I can't leave out the jalapeno skillet cornbread. I didn't think that I'd like it but it was very good. I'm picky about jalapenos, so I picked them out. The cornbread was sweet and buttery. Very tasty. I definitely would order that again. It appeared that our group enjoyed most of the food and will come again.

The bone in wings are amazing!! I can see why they win awards! The brisket was looked to perfection! Compliments to the chef. The beer was good as well. Service and atmosphere was great and warming. I'd definitely go back. The owner check on the patrons when I was there which was great. Kid and family friendly

This restaurant was absolutely wonderful. 5 stars all the way. The food was fantastic and so was their beer. I had pulled pork and brisket along with sides of French fries and loaded mac & cheese. You can't go wrong. I also had two of their seasonal beers. One was made with butternut squash! If you think that was strange the other was brewed with spruce branch tips. It sounds crazy but they were both really good. The atmosphere was really different, in a great way. They make their own beer, soda, and bread here just as it would have been done in past times... over a wood fire. You get to see this all happening. And the service? Fantastic as well. From the first person we saw to the last everyone was so super friendly. The workers were happy to tell you not just about the menu but the entire operation of making the beer, soda, and bread. It was a great meal in a wonderful setting with fantastic service. We can't wait to go back!

We had a wonderful experience on a Sunday evening. Our server was attentive and extremely thorough. Our host was engaged through the whole seating. The food was delicious. Some things to adjust: Mac and cheese: a little creamier vs cheesier Bug repellent outside A list of what the sauces are on the table
