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.

Crowler from Dogtap. It pours opaque, black with a nice light tan head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, toffee, biscoff, fudgey, chocolate cake, toffee crisp, dark roasted malt, dark/dried fruits, touch of spice and dull vanilla/nougat. The taste is initially quite smooth, bitter - sweet, toasty, roasted, umami, biscoff dunked in coffee, toffee crisp, charred action, umami, rocky road, liquorice, nougat, vanilla cake frosting, donuts and a nip of alcohol with a drying, roasted finish. Medium+ body and moderate carbonation. Never too sweet, which is what I had reservations about. Works quite well.

0,44 boks (Drums Please!) fra VP Kvaddå, delt med eiendomsmagnaten: brunsvart med utmerket skum helt ned. Dessertkaffe med en liten teskje brunsukker, mørke sjokolader og et hint av bjørnebær. Slank og lettdrikkelig.

A fairly straightforward framboise but it's nice. Crisp, fresh, fruity, just a little sharpness. Could happily drink a few of these over an afternoon.
