Surly Overrated! West Coast Style IPA

Surly Brewing Company is in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. They will be building a big new destination brewery and taproom in Minneapolis.

This 7.3% ABV beer pours a light copper and amber in color. There is a tall, thick, foamy head that is off-white in color. The aroma is citrusy and piney, tea with lemon. The taste has citrus, pine, tea with lemon, orange, on a bed of malt big enough to support all those hops. The finish is quite bitter. It is medium bodied with medium carbonation, and a touch smooth, feeling just right in the mouth. Another winning IPA from Surly!  I wonder if this is related to the Bandwagon IPA they sold exclusively at Target Field one summer for Twins games? The Bandwagon was even better.
