The Union Commons complex—a combination of Braxton Brewing, Graeter’s Ice Cream and Dewey’s Pizza—has an official opening date.
Per a press release from Braxton Brewing, the complex is set to open on Nov. 27. On that day, the brewery is hosting a grand opening celebration that’s free and open to the public. The event will offer live music, a ceremonial keg tapping, and more. The ceremony will last from 4 p.m. until 11 p.m.
“This is truly a full-circle moment for us,” Braxton Brewing co-founder Jake Rouse said in a press release. “Opening this brewery so close to where we grew up is a testament to our commitment to Northern Kentucky. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Dewey’s and Graeter’s to create a place where families can come together and build memories so close to where our family did for years.”
Braxton has a deep connection to Union as the brewery was founded there in 2015. The name “Braxton” comes from Braxton Drive, just a few hundred feet from where the Rouse family home in Union. Since then, it has expanded across the Greater Cincinnati region.
Union Commons is located at 8905 US-42 in Union.
