Description
six°north was established in 2013. The concept was born in Belgium when founder Robert Lindsay fell in love with the country’s beer culture and tradition. He soon returned to north east Scotland to start brewing his own beers, six°north of Brussels. We make modern, artisanal beers that are driven by Belgian brewing tradition and inspired by modern brewing practices.

Our beers are unfiltered and carbonated naturally through secondary fermentation. We brew classic Belgian inspired beers, as well as modern, hop-forward styles. We also release a number of collaboration beers each year with other breweries.

Bottle. Appearance - deep amber with a nice head. Nose - toffee, red fruit and general resin. Taste - red fruit at least, tangy toffee, strawberry laces. Palate - medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - I’d put this somewhere between a ruby ale and a Belgian Dubbel.

Bottle from Oddbin’s beershop, Blackheath. Twas a surprise finding this in London! It pours hazy bright orange with a small white head. The nose is fresh, bready, cereal, grass, light spice, touch of banana smoothie and pear drops. The taste is crisp, bitter, grassy, leaf, pithy citrus, straw, white bread, estery pear & apple, dull banana and a touch of alcohol to round things off. Medium body and fine carbonation. Simple drinking Belgian ale by all accords. Not too shabby.
