Wych one's next

I went through a Circle Master phase a couple of years ago, but I'm now overdue trying the other Wychwood beers. So I have Fiddler's Elbow in front of me now, the only wheat-brewed ale I've ever come across. The result of such unorthodoxy is a curious bitter, hoppy, tangy ale with a smooth round aftertaste. While marketed as a summer ale, this is rich enough to satisfy all year round.

    For consistency the Wychwood Brewery are up there with the best. They don't seem to know how to make a bad beer; some quite average ones, like Goliath, but no real stinkers.
    Apart from their always enjoyable flagship Hobgoblin, I can also recommend Wychcraft and Black Wych.

    Until I visited their web site the other day I hadn't realised that Hobgoblin was their flagship beer - it's harder to find round here than either Circle Master or Fiddler's Elbow. I have seen it though, so I'll make a point of trying it asap.
