The pub is also serving a Sunday roast covered in catflavoured gravy.
The beer is made with traditional malt and hops, but also includes meat extract.
Dogs seem to have a thirst for the drink as the Brandling Villa has had to reorder fresh stock after the first 48 bottles ran out in a fortnight.

“Everyone else’s dogs love it. We have some regulars – she’ll have a Sauvignon Blanc, he has a pint of Budvar, and Charlie the dog has a dog beer.
“That’s his regular drink.”
Mr Carr worked with chef Sammy Dee, who also has a dog, a chihuahua Jack Russell cross called Ladybird, to create a range of a la carte dishes for pets.

Mr Carr said: “Dog friendly is really the way it should be.
Pubs should have wooden floors and dogs in front of the fire.”
