    I don't get any mettalic taste. Always pour it into a glass. The mind can play tricks on your senses sometimes.

    Got a single of Furious and poured it into a glass. Enjoyed thoroughly, no metallic taste. Silly brain! Also, are there supposed to be tons of tiny particles suspended in the beer? They don't move up or down, they're simply suspended. I took a picture but it seems some people have experienced this as well.

    I have drank lots of furious and not seen that ever, I have had sediment in other beers, but haven't seen it from surly.

    Seems odd, from the description it sounds like the beer was unfiltered but I've never seen an unfiltered Furious. Does Surly do any unfiltered beers?

    I've had a Furious or two with sediment over the years, but they're rare as hen's teeth. Never tasted any different that I remember.

    Todd said something about fine tuning their centrifuge, that they don't have it quite right yet.

    That sounds like some kind of eukaryotic fungus. Careful, could be delicious.

    Any word on this hitting stores? I'm supposed to ship a trade Monday and would love to extra some.

    We don't even own a filter.We have switched from fining our beers to using a centrifuge.As luck would have it the one beer we are still dialing in is Furious.So there has always been some potential for suspended particles in any or all of the beers.The good news is with the centrifuge its either yeast,hops or proteins.Harmless and tasteless IMO.

    not everyone celebrates Easter so this Sunday is fair game for afternoon session beers I guess

    I had a hazy pint of Furious at Suzi's not too long ago. It was the best tasting Furious I have had in a while, and I too like others drink a lot of Furious!
