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.

If you like a hoppy beer this will be the brew of your dreams. If you hate hoppy beers than this will be the redheaded stepchild of your nightmares. Unfortunately it’s too much of a nightmare for me.

Is this a reference to the movie “Big Daddy?” If so, I like it, but at first when I read it I thought of Flight of the Conchord’s Hiphopopotamus video. Which is even more awesome.
