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.

4,8%. Drukket i solveggen på Bergstua. Endelig væranes der etter to tropedager og ei tropenatt. På nesten 70 degrees North! Mørk gyldenbrun. Middels høyt skum som blir film. Uklar. God ferskenaroma. Smaken litt tynn. Tropisk frukt. Så vidt litt bitterhet i avslutninga.

There's not much to report on this... it's just a very decent kriek. Lots of fresh, cherry fruitiness, a bit of hop, some sherbet, a bit of a floral quality to it. Doesn't taste its strength, if anything could maybe do with a little more of a kick. It's a bit too guzzleable for the ABV if anything.
