7 Dog-Friendly Breweries in Sonoma County

Slide 1 of 9

Fogbelt Brewing Company, Santa Rosa
Fogbelt may not be the biggest of breweries in terms of venue size, but there’s space for you and your dog on the street side patio. The brewery's taps are constantly rotating and there's a seasonal food menu with “chef’s specials” such as deviled eggs and a butcher board. They make their own dog treats out of the spent grain from the brewery - they got a two paws up from my pup! 1305 Cleveland Ave, Santa Rosa 95401, 707-978-3400, fogbeltbrewing.com, @FogbeltBrewing
