有人看过暴脾气酒厂 (Surly Brewing Co.) 与阿迈厄酒厂 (AmagerBryghus) 酒厂合作，这款名为「斧人陶德」(TODD THE AXE MAN) 的酒吗？ 你曾好奇过谁是陶德、为何会以他命名吗？
阿迈厄的营销总监在认识暴脾气的酿造主管陶德・豪格 (Todd Haug) ，说出：「任何人都该见识陶德如何玩弄他的斧头（吉他）。」这段话后，双方便决定以斧人陶德作为酒款名称。
就在前天，陶德结束在暴脾气酒厂十多年的酿酒师生涯，酒厂也正式宣布陶德将步下暴脾气的舞台，让我们简短回顾一下陶德在酒厂的历史，并看看官方酒厂如何感谢这位传奇酿酒师：
2004年1月
痴迷于家酿啤酒的奥马・安萨里 (Omar Ansari) 在家人的支持下，找来当地的酿酒师陶德・豪格 (Todd Haug)，开始规划属于自己的酒厂。
2005年12月30日
他们两个开酿暴脾气的第一款酒，但因为发酵控制器无法正常运作，以及奥马还不习惯陶德酿造的节奏（TMD重金属乐），所以花了14个小时才完成酿造工作。
2006年2月1日
暴脾气建厂后的兩年，他们售出第一批名为「狂怒」(Furious)的混合风格酒款。一段精酿啤酒传奇旅程也正式展开。
2016年10月19日
震惊所有精酿啤酒狂热分子的新闻在官方网站正式发布：
（中文翻译版）
暴脾气酒厂 (Surly Brewing Co.) 的酿造部门主席陶德・豪格 (Todd Haug)，在经历十多年的付出后，将要离开这间位在双城的酒厂。 「我想感谢暴脾气国度里的所有家人、朋友与粉丝，愿意不断地支持我们的信念。奥马和我最初只是单纯地想建立一个能自由酿造不同风格啤酒的酒厂，酿造我们打从心底喜欢的啤酒，而我认为这个目标已经实现。」 陶德拒绝受市场考量的束缚，坚持要酿造属于自己风格的啤酒，因此树立全新的风格与典范。在这条不容易的道路上，陶德为酒厂赢得许多比赛，也为自己赢得了众人的尊敬。 暴脾气酒厂的创办人与主席奥马・安萨里如此描述陶德：「陶德的做事风格深深地影响整个暴脾气酒厂的文化，他从最初便与我们一起从无到有地建立这个酒厂，靠着他的双手进行每次的酿造、焊接工作，他也连结了我们所有人，并促使我们团结合作，这是我们酒厂今日能受人瞩目的原因。我们将永远想念他。」 在陶德离开既有职位后，在这个他已服务超过25年的产业中，仍有无数的机会正在等着他，而他也将迎接全新的冒险。
「我将酿造的重担交给我指导过的团队，包含极度可靠的主酿酒师以及充满创意的酿造团队，我迫不急待地想看他们创造属于暴脾气酒厂的第二世代文化。」陶德说：「该是让他们接下传承的火炬了，并延续我们过去十年所打造的酒厂传奇。」
与陶德坐在大厅听着音乐不停播放、音浪变强、节奏加速，就像是趟地狱骑乘之行。他是位巫师、苦味的酿酒师、创造的天才。 暴脾气国度感谢你

After more than 10 years setting the pace of the craft beer revolution in Minnesota, Surly Brewing Co., Head of Brewing Operations Todd Haug has resigned his position at the Twin Cities Brewery. “I’d like to thank our family, friends and fans – Surly Nation – for always believing in our vision. It never gets old to hear people tell you how much they enjoy your beer. Omar and I set out with the modest goal to build a brewery so we could create a different kind of craft beer – the kind we wanted to drink – and I think we achieved that.”
Todd earned a reputation for refusing to brew-to-style. He defined the undefinable and brewed beer his way, which was rarely the easy way, earning the brewery gold medals in the process.
Omar Ansari, Founder and President of Surly Brewing says, “Todd has been an incredibly influential part of Surly since the beginning and was instrumental in building the brewery from the ground-up, often with his own two hands; brewing, welding, making connections and forming collaborations to establish the irreverent brand it is today. His talent is undeniable, and he will always be a huge part of who we are. He will be missed.” Todd is stepping down from his role to pursue other opportunities and challenges in the industry that he has worked in for 25 years. The future is bright, and adventure awaits. “I leave my brewhouses in the extremely capable hands of our co-lead brewers and the innovative brewing team we’ve mentored together. I eagerly look forward to seeing what the next generation of Surly brewers will create,” says Haug. “This is an opportunity for them to take the torch and continue the legacy we’ve been building for 10 years now.” It’s been a hell of a ride with Todd in the front seat, keeping the music loud and the speed fast. He’s the wizard, the bitter brewer and the creative genius. Surly Nation thanks you.
