If someone were to set up a Venn diagram show up the crossover between craft beer mass and Canis familiaris hoi polloi , that overlap would be bigger than a Great Dane in a productive wooing . At least , that is , according to Instagram , where a quick in - app search for # brewdogs brings up about 8,500 private posts , many connect to full - blow dog - meets - beer accounts .

Why is this phenomenon so popular ? Because it ’s friggin ' adorable , that ’s why . What ’s good than enjoying a cold one while chilling with your undecomposed little four - legged compadre ? Nothing . utterly nothing – which is why @barleythebrewpup has 26.8k following while your ass ca n’t break off 400 . Let ’s face it , human pal , it ’s fourth dimension to repose down ( or sit , roll over , etc . ) and love the doggie - drinkin ' parade .
