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.

440 ml can, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 6.0%. Hazy orange to reddish colour, moderate but shortlived off-white head. Sickly sweetish aroma of vomit, cherries, over-ripe raspberries and heather flowers. Medium sour flavour of lactic acid and sour berries, a hint of honey. Low bitterness. Won't buy again.

Keg at Craftsman Company. It pours lightly hazy bright deep purple with a small pinky/purple head. The aroma is fres, juicy, tangy, sweet - sour, gummy candy, bramble and blackcurrant. The taste is intially dry, sweet - sour, juicy, tangy, bright blackcurrant character, bramble, jammy, sour sweets, hint of citric acidity and lime with a fairly short tangy finish. Average body and fine, prickly carbonation. Not a huge amount of depth, but it works well.
