Description
Used to be a client brewer till 2021 brewing circus-themed beers.

In 2021, the brewery moved to the old warehouse at the entrance along Blokkellestraat, which was a workshop of the electricity factory with supply via the railway line that ran next to it. Thanks to the Circus Brewery, it is once again bustling with activity.

Up to 2500 hl of barley water per year, five 1000 l lager and fermentation tanks, two of 2000 l and two of 500 l. The director himself cannot master that much and that is why our beer is also available to you, loyal fans and bon vivants. B'brew came from exotic Roeselare to put together this installation and did an excellent job.

All Circus Brewery classics are brewed here, but other brewers can also lose their beer egg here. A 500 liter installation like ours, which is professionally equipped, is perfect for trying out new recipes by larger breweries or by the hobbyist.

Peach, melon, gooseberry. Sour stone fruit, berry skins, bit herbal hops. Fizzy carbonation. Pretty straightforward but does the job.

(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, 8 Nov 2024) Mahogany colour with creamy, beige head. Malty, spicy nose with notes of dried fruit, caramel and spices (nutmeg, cardamom, cinnamon). Malty, spicy taste with caramel, dried fruit, raisins, cinnamon, dark sour cherries and a mild spicy bitterness. Full body, with a certain sweetness. Interesting, quite complex and enjoyable. Nice one.
