Step inside and you'll find a cozy space adorned with canine decor, where furry companions are treated like royalty.

    Lager - American | 
    4.4% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    0 IBU (Trace Bitterness) 
    Light clean lager with hints of salt and lime. Aye Carumba!! Elvis was a rescue mutt originally from Mexico. Full of energy and a spark for life. Always put a smile on my face with his antics. Salty and spunky, but he was also a cool and easy going boy. He lived to 13 and passed eventually from a brain tumour. His howl to certain songs on the radio still makes me smile to this day.

    Phenomenal. An incredible micro brewery in the heart of the 1st St bars and restaurants. Parker the barperson is incredible: we had a great chat while I sampled all of his beer recommendations. They also serve chips (crisps to us Brits) at the bar. Note they don't do food. The beer is beyond superb. It goes without saying that dogs take priority here, only joking but it's lovely to meet gorgeous dogs. I can't wait to come back to savour their amazing beers. What a fantastic addition to the 1st St scene. Support this truly local business! See pics.

    Love this place! Just being surrounded by dogs should be reason enough to go. But their beer is also very good. They don't have food food. But you could get chips and such.

    Totally fun place to hang out if you like dogs. Good beer with a great variety. The bartender was super nice and shared samples of beer. We loved that the flight came with the glasses in a dog water bowl with popcorn. Great place if you want to pet some cute doggos and get good beer. Be prepared, though, you will get dog kisses!

    My new favourite brewery!! The craft beer is incredible and the service is AMAZING!! I love dogs and there were about 6 dogs when I arrived there. The bartender, Parker, was so great!! He was friendly, knowledgeable and gave my dog treats! If you're a dog lover and a craft beer lover this will be your new home. I'm still thinking about that IPA and a little dog named Yetti

    Good selection of beers. Very dog friendly - the only place we've found that allows dogs inside, which was great on a hot day. You can also bring food, or order from one of the restaurants nearby. If we lived here, we'd be regulars!
