Although we try to limit ourselves to trying only one new beer a week (we're not alcoholics after all, just alcohol-enthusiasts), the time and opportunity occasionally presents itself to imbibe a new brew. Brewery tours and open houses pretty much beg for this. And thus, we went and visited Austin's own
Circle Brewing Company and their first open house to celebrate the release of their latest creation, the Wryteous Rye-Wheat I.P.A. And...it was fantastic. Unlike the majority of I.P.A.'s that i've tried, this one was not overly bitter. Sure, the hops and bitter flavors were there, but they were combined with a sweetness that reminded me more of a summer pale ale, or at times, even a light Hefewiesen. It was perfect for the heat of the early afternoon, and i might add, that it went great with the hot dog i ate out there (
The Evil Wiener). So, congratulations Circle Brewing, you've just created my new favorite beer! I look forward to drinking many of them in the near future.
