We’re not sure why dogs and beer go hand-in-hand. Maybe it’s as simple as, “those who like dogs also like beer.” Or maybe it’s that each craft beer is as unique and individual as our canine companions.
Regardless, we’ve noticed a lot of suds with canine-inspired names lately; and for that, they have the honor of appearing on our blog. Think of it as a wish list of all the beers we’d like to try in the name of…uh hum…work.
