Surly: The frustration we felt when we couldn't find a good beer, much less a great one, in Minnesota. So we made some.
Great beer is all that really matters. Well, that and pushing your limits a bit, looking out for your people, taking pride in where you’re from, and having as much damn fun as you can while doing it.
Brewed Aggressively in Minnesota

Aromas are Brett, spice, dry grain, Band-Aids and spice. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, easy tart but otherwise kind of on the bland side. Alcohol is well hidden. Easy drinking tart beer. But nothing special.

Can. Pours opaque black with a small brown head and decent lacing. Aroma is fudge bourbon, charred wood, nice oaky notes. Vanilla. Flavor is medium plus sweet, light plus bitter. Full body. Really nicely done.

473ml can. Darkest brown colour with ruby shimmer and small to average, dense, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Coffee aroma, notes of mocha, a touch of instant coffee, widely disguised, dark malty background. Taste is coffee flavoured, slightly roasty, dark malty, minimally diluted notes of mocha, a touch of instant coffee, subtle residual sweetness. Super creamy texture, smooth, soft and silky palate, very fine, dense, soft, creamy carbonation. Immensely creamy, a tad monotonous - pretty nice.
