Stray Dog, based in Orleans, Ottawa, has debuted its first beer ‘This One’, which is its take on a California Common.

The brewery explained: “Our take on a California Common, a unique North American style with a rich history dating back to the Gold Rush era, This One is based on our award-winning recipe.

“It has a moderate malt presence, intertwined with balanced notes of toast and caramel, finished with hints of rustic wood and mint on the nose.

“It has a beautiful copper colour that finishes as crisp as an autumn morning. When your server asks what you’d like to drink, point at the menu and say, “I’ll have This One.”

Stray Dog debuted the new beer last weekend at OCCO Kitchen, Broadway Orleans Gardens, and D & S Southern Comfort BBQ among others.

The Stray Dog team includes Justin MacNeill, Marc Plante and Gen Benay.
