We were sixty feet underground when the beer came calling.
While sinking tankards in ancient beer caves near the foot of the Alps, inspiration struck — and at that exact moment, THE CRISP was born. The can in your hand turns obsession to reality. Now that’s Crisp.
We went to Germany for this one. (Well went back really: we first devised this beer while counting yeast cells in a German lab, and sinking liters in underground caves.) Anyway, when it comes to German hops, American breweries get the leftovers… the less desirable plots, amalgamated into a “hop sausage.” Instead, at Sixpoint we go straight to the source for the prime cuts — the Tettnanger and Hallertau hops in THE CRISP are sourced 100% directly from farmers in Tettnang, Germany. This way we personally select what goes into our beers.
Tettnang and Hallertau Hops, 100% sourced directly from Germany, give THE CRISP that signature floral aroma. Cargill Pilsner Malt is the backbone, and helps make the finish snappy and clean.
Legit pilz has a hop aroma that leaps from the glass — THE CRISP blasts you with a huge floral aroma, but finishes crisp, clean, and refreshing.

Can from Wegmans. Gold with a hint of haze and a giant white head. Nose is speghettios, green grasses. Nose turns me the fuck off. Flavor is sweet grasses, black tea, leaf. Hmm... best by April 20, 2021 and picked it up this week. Perhaps it's not the beer's fault it smells like cheap canned tomato sauce.

Can. Clear golden body. Frothy white head. Aroma of citrus, pineapple, toasted grain. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. It is crisp, but not overly aromatic or flavorful. Starts sweet, finishes lightly to moderately bitter.
