Surly Furious
January 21st thru January 27th
Brewer's Description
A tempest on the tongue, or a moment of pure hop bliss? Brewed with a dazzling blend of American hops and Scottish malt, this crimson-hued ale delivers waves of citrus, pine and caramel-toffee. For those who favor flavor, Furious has the hop-fire your taste buds have been screaming for.
Golden Promise malt and four American hop varieties result in a rich malt sweetness infused with bright hop flavor and aroma from beginning to end. It's about 6% alcohol and around 100 IBUs.

The thing about this furious beer that is extremely important is that any beer, food, or heck even gum will ruin this complex “hop bombardment.” One should have a completely bland taste in your mouth and this will wake up all of your taste buds in an instant. The more that I think about, if I were the bender/alcoholic type, this would be my first choice for a ”roll out of bed beer.” Alas, I’m not though so I guess I’ll just plan my eating etc, around it.
