February 1, 2013 Greetings! New Canning Line We're doing all we can to make as much beer as possible at our current brewery. We've installed more brewing equipment and now we're installing a new canning line to get more beer out the door, faster. Our head brewer Todd Haug went all the way to the <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6K7VValSAPNbV4tb7VQsAeWM5qNnAGjwYoE aJ8vSPoMZPjgLEYavX4H5_TNX6qECG_XcfeUNPagbfFXy7nrf9egU0Mxyg8ldqoVvYc7V6dGBA== week to test out the line for himself. <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs145/1102478489939/img/82.jpg> The new canning line is double the speed of our existing line, it can fill more than 3,000 cans an hour and it'll even load the cans from the pallet for us. The system will be online in a month or so, and it will eventually move to our Destination Brewery. If you want to check it out, make sure to try and get yourself on the next available Surly Brewery Tour. SGAD Nation <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs145/1102478489939/img/81.jpg> Thanks to all of 2012's Surly Gives A Damn volunteers who came out last week for the SGAD Appreciation Event. Hundreds of Damn-Giving Do-Gooders packed out the brewery and we made sure there was plenty of Surly on tap to show our appreciation. Congrats to Todd Couture for picking up the Volunteer of the Year award. There's still a lot to give a Damn about this year, and we're looking for 50 volunteers to help pack and sort food at the <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6KTyzZn1MMHUDAGzEKenJbCLQyjlNc61OuL 6B4xdgdWmBvZFqTwXYZxhuTaC5subwyAHI6kmdE4g06T6JUe-kZ2JUkp-M_X4c9sKBS4ZwG7Ducw -PqCxsEc> Emergency Foodshelf Network on Thursday, March 21.

Mild's our English-style Mild Ale brewed with pale, brown, crystal and aromatic malts and flaked oats. This one's a low alcohol beer at 3.8% ABV, so it's "sessionable". There will be pints of Mild for $5, and 4 x 4 oz. pours of any Surly beer on tap for $8 at the release party. Additional beers on tap will include: Darkness, Smoke, SYX, Abrasive, Damien, Fiery Hell, Furious, Bender and Cynic. Warmin' Up For Winterfest...

We'll be serving our new seasonal, Pentagram. It's a 100 percent Brettanomyces Dark Ale aged in red wine barrels. It has flavors of sour cherry, tobacco, oak and a classic 'Brett' barnyard funk balanced by dark Munich malt chewiness. We'll be bottling Pentagram soon, so look out for a release date later in February 2013. <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs145/1102478489939/img/79.jpg> Overrated News This week, artwork for our upcoming canned West Coast IPA, Overrated, was leaked on the Internet. The unicorn-themed can art (below) was what we really wanted for Overrated but the Feds denied our artistic vision. They said it was too appealing to underage drinking, as if adults can't be into unicorns and rainbows?! Pfft. It's a little over the top, that's the joke... <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs145/1102478489939/img/80.jpg> Dates For Your Calendar Surly will be at the following upcoming events: 2/1 - <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6LQXzDpS5x5IwX3wIdaNGwejtjK-rOLJ4GM EtxV0ZX-tt_M8_arfPWTw-Qj1liUW4eD7CkCVbLeljyXE9Y0JepVKm3HEy-WXb8c60czu8H36mpK PrMBl2EK7B8x87YustfwaJkL2V9KGQ==> Minnesota Craft Brewers Guild's Winterfest - <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6KPMQkyZnjh4dFe0Z--mMSQeBVfp-smGqJG thlTILcxUHzYtexSrpSds_Kqj_p4Flq0SlrjUJLfzkXXcsMDNd8gSSLMX85wh8lA7oLIxEXg-Uzg zEbZoG1p_IcWQ5UhhIA=> Minnesota History Center, St. Paul, MN 2/2-2/3 - <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6LS0nwszp__0MXsa_lWkBesEkycF9deMEvg YJIsQvhSHGyPm1QPVsO8-2YvgNvoaKZHi7G8EdajttyGGuU2jNeu9zym4eWLI6quq_s7_SWETphl kvxSCTd1vKly-EUjyNo=> City of Lakes Loppet Cross Country Ski Festival, Minneapolis, MN 2/4 - <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6IMIXTQQp0ZCEVG2dmuuU-tkKCxXNJyazNU xYUDFig6ZvwWalr7gmCxmL56n372sra1JNDa0m0SMWBmabLzT5J0rnOzo4vZ8UK-Wc1Sc6hkrq4l iwGjt0SdQ5W4yX-fGTxOjdu-obtVYQ==> Mild Release Party, <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6KgjUrpcJAzaHu4IUGhT1u1t0wQ9u-u6TZO ogs0yzT6ysYvttYvim5kV_ot-LWi1rceOH-XHOmYPUPulh3Ml7098Ps817RfSeiADQFAruVHXqPs -DEj7vlU> Blue Nile Restaurant & Lounge, Minneapolis, MN Surly on the Loppet Trail We're a sponsor of the 2013 <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001TYQlD-f6M6LS0nwszp__0MXsa_lWkBesEkycF9deMEvg YJIsQvhSHGyPm1QPVsO8-2YvgNvoaKZHi7G8EdajttyGGuU2jNeu9zym4eWLI6quq_s7_SWETphl kvxSCTd1vKly-EUjyNo=> City of Lakes Loppet Ski Festival and we're going to be serving Surly at TWO Loppet beer gardens this weekend to celebrate.
