About
Small dogs with big dreams. The Stray Dog Brewing Company is more than just beer; we represent the spirit of adventure and the courage to pursue the passions that enrich our lives. Many people choose to give up on their dreams because of fear of failure, but yearn for something more. Metaphorically, a lot of us feel chained up in one form or another. These chains can be the result of external forces or self-imposed. The symbolism of a Stray Dog is the will to break free from these chains and venture out into the unknown. It represents freedom and defiance of a life of confinement and taking the risk to do something great even if it means leaving the security of the current life you’re living. The road ahead is unknown, but you’ll never know what possibilities lie ahead unless you venture out.

Slight haze, pale. Thin head. Lightish body, vague citrus. Approximately refreshing but also boring.

Draft: Poured a pale hazy yellow color ale with a nice white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and a semi-dry finale. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and a semi-dry finish. Body is average for style with good carbonation. Enjoyable NEIPA but slightly lacking juicy flavours.

Can: Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow color ale with a medium white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones and some light tropical notes with some resinous hops notes. Taste is also a good mix of citrusy hoppy notes with some juicy floral hops undertones notes, some light tropical notes and a resinous semi-dry finale. Body is full for style with good carbonation. Enjoyable NEIPA but could have been more prominent on the juicy factors of hops.

Can from Chelsea & Co. pouring a hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a big creamyish white cap, good stay and full patches of sticky, thin lacing. A great smell come out of this one, with a yeasty base, blending with orange juice, some spiciness-grassiness and other fresh tropical fruits. Hop particles falls to the bottom of the glass. The fruitiness continues in the taste, a little milder but still with light zesty-drying end. A very nice, juicy, fruity and yeasty refreshing NEIPA that I hope stays.
