Description
Dog's Window Brewery has grown from the enjoyment and passion of good beer. As a social occasion, three friends would get together and sample various homebrews. The conversation would often lead to "You should sell this stuff it's really good" and "If this was on the shelf in a shop I'd buy it". The comments were jokingly laughed off with a reply of "Yeah maybe one day". Well that "one day" came when I thought, why not? I certainly wouldn't be the first.

We are a small scale microbrewery, which allows us to concentrate more on quality than quantity. Hops are re-sealed with a vacuum sealer after use and kept in a freezer for freshness. It also allows us to design new beers without worrying about securing huge amounts of ingredients. So Dog's Window progressed from homebrew to what you see today.

Can from Wales Ales. Semi-hazy light amber with foamy white top, decent lacing. Notes of malts, some of that farmhouse hay and spice, stewed fruit, some sherbet. Full bodied, fine to frothy carbonation. Slightly boozy and warming in the finish but its a relative easy sipper for the strength. It has reasonable character. There seems to be a few Welsh breweries really having a go at German and Belgium styles which is great. [#3634 Rate / #28 Wales brewery / #3 Quad]

Can. Just a light haze on this orange beer, decent bubbly white head. Airy palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Airy malts, tasting old school, like Chevalier but without the complexity. A kinda West Coast generic citrus marmaladey, flavour, just a hint of Sakura that, for me, is it's unique character. Light and semi dry finish. Curious brew. A bit like home brew, top notch home brew but you know what I mean.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Hazy gold beer, teeny tiny bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth light malts, a good creamy sweetness. Nicely tropical hop fruit delivery, crisp cooling pine alongside. Bright smooth citrus towards the light crisp finish. A bright hop fruity dipa, no hop filth here! Clean and very quaffable.
