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.

mattberan says Surly on tap
January 23rd, 2008
The local burger-n-beer joint has Furious on tap. This beer tastes like a hop nugget with medium malt poured on it. It’s basically the epitome of homebrew flavors. I’ve never had it in cans now which disappoints me, but they served it slightly warmer than I’m used to and it really made the malt stand out more than the hops.
What amazes me is how the flavor is so distinct and defined that it stays with you, I can even remember exactly what it tasted like this morning.
