Surly Brewing announced on its website yesterday that it would start selling a limited supply of Surly Two this coming Saturday during growler filling times. The catch? It is one bottle per person because only 400 were produced. 84 bottles will go on sale this week for $15 apiece.
The beer commemorated the brewery’s second anniversary. It is a dark ale made with over 40 pounds of cranberries per barrel. Surly Two has received excellent beer reviews since its initial tapping at the Blue Nile in January, placing it amongst the top fruit beers produced in the world.

Joey Bachoua of South Bay Drugs and Liquor in Imperial Beach, CA, announced late last night that his store got in a limited shipment of Port 2nd Anniversary Ale. We are not 100% sure that the beer can be part of a shipped order but SBD does ship out to select states across the U.S. so you have a good shot at getting this, even if you don’t live in California (just phone the store). As only eight cases came in, there is a four bottle per person limit. These may even sell out today so act fast. The first batch of beer reviews point to this one being worth the money.
Bachoua is also selling Alpine Chez Monieux (I believe he is the only store in the country to be retailing either beer). Lost Abbey Inferno Ale and Green Flash Double Stout are two other notable recent arrivals. Warning: Don’t wait on these beers.
