Surly Bitter Brewer

From Surly – First one in, last one out, sweltering 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. Simply 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 aromas. So go ahead, get bitter!

Surly Brewing – Surly Bitter Brewer – 16 o.z can poured into an Imperial pint glass. 4.1% abv. From online trade.

Appearance: Pours a hazy copper with a thin white film of head, leaving creamy spotty lacing. Within the body, you can see visible rising carbonation.

Aroma: Herbal and citrus hops, iced tea with lemon.

Taste: Delicious hoppy water or hop tea.  Very herbal and refreshing.

Mouthfeel: Thin,watery and fizzy.

Overall: Pretty bad ass for a 4 percent ale. This really captures the hops well.
