I made a really nice tasting wheat beer about 6 weeks ago and I was pretty happy with it. After sampling many of the beers and in a moment of human/canine bonding I poured a little bit into a bowl and gave it to my dog. He sniffed it and then walked away. Mind you, this is the same dog that will eat a whole soccer field of goose poop if I let him. So if a crap eating dog won't drink my beer, should I toss it?

Brewing beer is a fun and rewarding hobby. When you do good, you get beer. When you do bad, you get beer.
It's a lot like recreation league softball.
Just like most of us that took our first swig or sniff of beer, I think he just needs a little time to come around. Maybe get his taste buds a little loose with some Jack 'n Coke before introducing the beer. Afterall, that's how we all finally accepted beer, right?
*If there happens to be any PETA members on these forums, I'm totally kidding about getting the dog drunk. Well, maybe 1/2 joking. Maybe 1/4 joking.

You're kidding, right?
My dog will happily eat his own puke (containing the thing that just made him puke.) If that doesn't constitute "not learning" then I don't know what does.
