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!

Joe Lunchpail says I’m not Bitter
August 20th, 2008
I’m not bitter about picking up this beer, but I am a little disappointed that I didn’t like it. The Surly guys have the Midas touch when it comes to beer, yet I can’t really see myself ever buying the Bitter Brewer again. The aroma and aftertaste was a bit too floral for my liking. Sure, it’s got a clean crisp intial taste, but something about it just doesn’t turn my crank.
