Minnesota’s best hop bomb is hitting store shelves this week. The four packs are certainly not going to be cheap but Todd The Axe man will warrant its price with heavy doses of palate-wrecking Citra and Mosaic hops.

This beer was originally brewed in collaboration with Amager Bryghus in Denmark and was named by Amager to honor the six string skills that Surly brewer Todd Haug possesses. For those who don’t know, Haug is a cat loving metal guitarist most famous for his shredding ability with the band Powermad — who have seen a great deal of success within the metal community since their humble beginnings in the mid 1980s.

Join Surly at Pat’s Tap tonight in Minneapolis for the official release which will begin today at 3 p.m. The event features $7 Surly cans plus brand-new Axe Man swag. The beer itself won’t always be available so you’ll want to get your hands on some while you can.

Cheers!
