Description
Third Circle is an independent Irish microbrewery that has its beginnings in Kilcoole, Co Wicklow, where Third Circle director and brewer Jon Grennan grew up. In common with many Third Wave craft brewers, Jon's journey into the industry began with home brewing where he developed a fascination and love for the art and science of beer.

Third Circle beers are now crafted in Dublin at Third Barrel Brewery, where Jon's love for both precision and experimentation are feeling the creation of some exciting new brews. The company's core beliefs are simple: brew with balance, good taste and curiosity. Third Barrel Brewery was founded in Bluebell Avenue, Dublin in collaboration with friends at Stone Barrel Brewing.

Relatively mild chocolatey and malty aroma, a little bit of brown fruity notes, or dried dark fruity notes. flavor is caramelly, chocolatey, faint coffee, sweet malty as well as roasted malty, dark dried fruits. fairly nice flavor and quite complex, I would wish it had some more power and a more agressive taste, it's almost like if it was a truly great 9% flavor bomb that had been watered down to 5.9%. Soo yea' quite tasty if you ignore some of the water.

Can. Explosive. Bbf 26 06 2021 rated 2023 05 16. When trying to open, the can rupured not at the opening mechanism but to the side. Got a blue fingertip from the blast, but the twisted metal did not cut me, fortunately. Huge pop and half a can of beer in mid air way too close to my keyboard which did not survive. I managed to pour some pf the gushing beer into my glass. Clearly in top10 can explosions i have witnessed. Keyboard needed replacement anyway. Aroma is grapefruity and citrus fruity with notes of wild yeasts. Flavor is oranges, slightly soapy kind of note. Faint yeasty sawdusty note. Not bad.
