Pet shop owner creates beer for dogs
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - After a long day hunting, there's nothing like wrapping your paw around a cold bottle of beer. So Terrie Berenden, a pet shop owner in the southern Dutch town of Zelhem, created a beer for her Weimaraners made from beef extract and malt.
"Once a year we go to Austria to hunt with our dogs, and at the end of the day we sit on the verandah and drink a beer. So we thought, my dog also has earned it," she said.
Berenden consigned a local brewery to make and bottle the nonalcoholic beer, branded as Kwispelbier. It was introduced to the market last week and advertised it as "a beer for your best friend."
"Kwispel" is the Dutch word for wagging a tail.

Non-alcoholic... ummmm. Beef flavored drink with malt.... doesn't sound too appealing, but perhaps to a dog...

I wonder how well the dogs like it and how they handle drinking this (any effects?)

I just performed an experiment - non alcoholic beer (O'Douls) with a little extra malt and beef stock. The dogs sniffed at it then lapped it all up in a few seconds.
