Interesting Fact
A bog is a wetland type that accumulates acidic peat, a deposit of dead plant material. Learn more on the Wikipedia entry. Even more interesting is that bog snorkelling is popular in England and Wales and has even produced the associated sport of mountain bike bog snorkelling.
erik says Flavored water, but heavier
February 24th, 2008
This beer is kind of like an uncarbonated flavored water, but heavier. I think it’s kind of tasteless, although I do taste hints of coffee and cranberries. Not what I expected from Surly. I don’t care for the brief tartness it offers, but towards the end of the beer I kind of enjoyed the mild tasteless aftertaste. Love the 9% alcohol content.
