Rick Stein and Chalky

A beer inspired by UK chef Rick Stein‘s dog is to be sold across the country.

Chalky’s Bite is named after the chef’s well-known companion, who died in January at age 17, and will soon be sold in Sainsbury’s stores across the UK.

Cornwall-based brewery Sharp’s worked with Stein to come up with a beer which would go well with seafood.

The beer was created before Chalky’s demise but Joe Keohane, from the brewery, said it now provided a fitting tribute to a “much-loved” dog.

Chalky, who died in January, became well-known through his appearances on Stein’s television series and a House of Commons motion was even tabled to pay tribute to him.
