Founded in 2011 by James Booth, the brewery is situated on the family&#8217;s Taminick Cellars winery property, which has been producing wines since 1904.<\/h3>\n<p>The brewery takes its name from the family&#8217;s beloved black Labrador, who was a constant companion during the establishment of the business. Black Dog Brewery combines traditional brewing methods with modern techniques to create a range of distinctive craft beers.\u00a0Their core range includes popular styles such as Pale Ale, Golden Ale, and India Pale Ale. They also produce seasonal and limited-edition brews, often experimenting with local ingredients and unique flavor combinations. The brewery is known for its commitment to quality and its connection to the local community.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors can enjoy tastings at the cellar door, which offers both Black Dog beers and Taminick Cellars wines, providing a comprehensive taste of the region&#8217;s beverages. But, all that said, on my visit while in Victoria&#8217;s High Country, I found the beers and service very underwhelming. I love my craft beer, but the offering from Black Dog Brewery did not meet my preference for strong, bold flavours. And the service, well , he seemed more interested in chatting to the two Americans perched at the bar.<\/p>\n<p>Would I go back? Based on my one experience, probably not.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20523,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":2,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[389],"class_list":["post-20521","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-high-country","tag-food-and-drink"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20521"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20521\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32087,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20521\/revisions\/32087"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ourdustybackroads.com\/odbProd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
