Surly 5 hits the bottling line!

Mon Aug 15, 2011 11:06 am

Hey, in case anybody cares, Surly 5 hit the bottling line today. In honor of the brewery's fifth anniversary, they're releasing a 100% bret beer in limited edition 750 ml bottles. Should be sour, funky & (if it's anywhere near as good as their other brews) delicious...

Cheers!

I am really looking forward to this beer. I have the sneaking suspicion that I will go bug the people at the liquor store everyday next week until they get it in. I have also been hoping for them to get the Summit anniversary ipa, but might just give up on waiting and go have it on draft somewhere.
In the fridge: Red IPA, Cider, Graff
In the Carboy: Tripel, Dunkelweizen
On deck: Hope and King Scotch Ale, Weizenbock

Get as many as you can find - I think they're only producing 4500 bottles....

I just cracked open one of the two bottles that I managed to snag. Hopefully they made their way up to St. Cloud (or you made your way down here, I suppose) because it is delicious. One of the best beers I have ever had, real dark and real funky.

For anyone near the 7 Corners part of downtown Minneapolis, head out to the Republic Restaurant for a release party tomorrow. The Republic is in the old Sgt. Preston's spot right across from the Town Hall Brewery. www.republicmn.com

Here is what their facebook says:
"Come check out Surly Brewing Company's 5 Release party at our very own Republic • Seven Corners, next Monday, August 29th, from 6:30-9:30pm!!"
