Description
Sixpoint was founded in 2004 (we like to say it was born at the dawn of civilization, though that’s a story for another time…) in the rough and tumble neighborhood of Red Hook, BKLYN. It was essentially a cult brewery — draft-only, mysterious, cryptic…

In 2010 we released our canned creations, and have been tweaking, improving, and releasing new formulations ever since. Then in May of 2017, we took our biggest step forward to date, releasing all of our ales raw and unfiltered, and simultaneously incorporating new and incredible raw materials obtained over years of sourcing.

In November 2018, Sixpoint was acquired by Artisanal Brewing Ventures.

Can, total wine. Eye is a virtually clear darker pale, maybe slight orangish tint light brown, typical fest beer look. Slight sweet caramel & malt nose. I've always felt sixpoint beers to be a little uncivilized and somewhat over the top for their style, so here goes: First taste impression is a little cloying, yet with many fest beer attributes. Stronger, more deep in flavor. A little sticky on the palate. In the middle deep sugary cloying impressions start to sink in with a little boozy reinforcement. Finishes with a stronger personality for a typical fest. Session is as expected, a little uncouth and coarse for the style. So be it.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear dark bronze color with a light beige head and very good retention. Decent lacing. Caramel malt aroma. Sweet caramel malt flavor throughout. Very clean and smooth. A good, simple American Marzen. Medium-light body and medium-light carbonation. Not bitter. Prost!
