About
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, from Trader Joe's, Manhattan. Pours faintly cloudy lemon yellow with a very small frothy off-white head, sharp citrus peel-mango aroma, low carbonation, mildly bitter citrus peel taste with sharp mango flavor and faint alcohol undertones, thin body, long citrus-mango finish. I'm not very comfortable with the very sharp mango flavor.

12oz can. Oh wow, this is really overspiced. Has some really undesirable flavors, I guess the clove and star anise are the main culprits. I had sort of already given up on Sixpoint and generally avoid their product but figured a Winter Lager was pretty safe. This is really something else. Bad.

Single from Lonestar, north of Dallas. Pint glass @home. Sticky, heady pour. Half hazy, dull pale gold. Lemon & lager nose with a tiny whiff of chilies. Lemon, ale, black pepper, back throat of chili, not really getting the honey. Basic bitch base beer. Thin but malty. Honey didn't add any texture(not enough honey?). Almost wtf flat. I could do this with more bubbles. Not as is.

Sweet spice nose. Pale & clear. Taste has lots of odd spice, almost biter veggie in nature. Different and difficult yet interesting. Yea, that bitter veggie thing really comes out in an extended rude finish.

On tap at Central NJ Beerfest at Mercer County Park. Bright amber color. Frothy beige head. Big spicy malt aroma is redolent of cinnamon, clove and orange peel. Flavor is more of the same. Added notes of star anise and toasted malt.
