Went to Sunsets restaurant in Woodbury (their website) and sampled some Surly Brewing Company's Furious IPA on tap. Yumm. It's up there now with my other favorites, the Hodgson's IPA from Leavenworth (which I think is defunct) and Dogfish Head's 90 Minute IPA (their website) which I can't seem to find for sale around here--anybody know where I can find this in the twin cities area? Anyway, check out the Furious, it's got the whole grapefruity, hoppy thing going on that I really enjoy.
On another note, when I was trying to locate the Hodgson's, even the brewery could not tell me where it might be for sale--some sort of Washington state regulation or something. However, Minnesota must be a lot more lenient because this brewery even has their own iPhone app to show you the closest place you can be served or purchase their products. Get Surly OTOH, in Washington state, you can buy real beer in the grocery store, in Minnesota 3.2 or less beer only, as I understand it, so you have to go to a liquor store (and be tempted by real liquor?).
