Just an amazing mouthfeel and look to these Surly beers. The flavors of spicy hops and pure grains practically freakin’ dance in the glass. TheEpeeist (1468), Swarthmore, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 17/20 | May 10, 2007 16 oz can. Peachy brown, not quite clear. Brief white head. Orange blossom and nectarine with piney caramel. Taste is equally sharp and fresh. Hops dominate with bready grapefruit, orange toffee and finally bitter lemon. Light carb, oily then dry with pine sap. SuIIy (1465), Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 17, 2009 16 oz can from Skinnyguy. Pours a dark, deep copper color with a white head. Nose is piney hops with a nice caramel and grapefruit hue. Palate is fairly thick and fluffy with a nice syrupy feel. Flavors are caramel malt with a nice pine and grapefruit presence. Not overly sweet and the hop presenceis very nice. yobdoog (1460), Woodridge NY, New York, USA

Fruity and citrus with hints of pine. Nice and chewy, great body and is so smooth. Balanced and very drinkable. SamGamgee (1460), Santa Cruz (La Selva), California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 23, 2009 Pint Can thanks to photomike. Another great beer from surly. Dark red amber in color with a creamy head. Really nice hop nose with lots of tangerine and flowers and a spicy edge. Nice darker toasted, dry malt profile with lots of citrus and pine flavor but with a relatively soft bitterness up front. As the beer goes down, there is a firmer resiny, grapefruit peel lingering bitter flavor. Pretty light in body and very drinkable. GreatLibations (1447), Last Supper, Arizona, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 16, 2008 Thanks to beerbelly, I mean hellbilly I have reached another milestone in my lifelong obsession to score 10K beers before I die. This beer I chose for a reason. It comes in a can. I drank it from the can. I have no idea what it looks like or if it has a gorgeous lasting head or not. I can however smell it and it does smell of the IPA style. I drink from the can and I enjoy it. I do however think this beer is highly over rated. Considering th abv, balance, overall complexity and finish I have come to a determination that it is average. But, it’s one of the best canned beers I’ve ever had. Thanks Josh. holdenn (1443), Chicago, Illinois, USA

Pours a red amber color with a small head. Nose of citrus hops and little else. Citrus fruit flavors, a little piney and tannic. Dries out in the finish. Decent beer. 7/4/7/4/15 = 3.7
Tea bagged version. Amber in color with a thin head. Great hoppy aromas. Grapefruit, pine, florals. Bitter citrus, florals, with light pale malts. Bitter and drinkable. Really tasty, but it appears my rating is the same. 8/3/7/4/15 = 3.7 dchmela (1443), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 24, 2007 Thanks to Ian for smuggling this back from Sturgis. Pours out a beautiful copper color with a big white head. Big hoppy, pine, grapefruit aroma. Taste is a hoppy explosion with hints of grapefruit. There is a hint of malt that smooths this out really nice. Finishes nice and dry, an absolute classic.
