Surly Bitter Brewer
June 2nd thru 8th
Brewer's Description
First one in, last one out, sweating in the summer, freezing in the winter. Years of toiling and boiling have turned our brewer Todd into a cynical, surly, bitter brewer...You too can get bitter without all the fuss. Simple crack open a can and fill a glass with our latest - Bitter Brewer.
Pale orange in color, this ale gets intense toast and marmalade character from British malt and American hops. Dry-hopping brings the floral citrus armomas. So go ahead, get bitter!

The Bitter Brewer sat in my fridge for quite awhile before I got around to drinking it. I think I was confusing it with Surly Mild which I had heard tasted, well, mild.
I was pleasantly surprised by the rich flavor of this beer, I thought it was excellent. Not a 5-star, but I’ll go 4.
