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.

Draft at Caps Beer Garden in Newark International AirPort. Bright, brassy gold pour. Small creamy white head. Bready malt aroma. Flavor is light, bready malt and grassy hops. Some minerality as well. Light bodied and refreshing.

Opalescent to hazy golden colour, huge, dense and forever lasting ecru-ish white head; aroma of grassy, pine resiny, grapefruity, lemon zesty, and dough notes; taste of hoppy bitterness with pine resiny, orange peel oily and the same notes as can be felt in the aroma; great DIPA

16 oz can, best before Sept 25 2011, traded to me by JoeBeerBelly. Thanks Joe!

42 IBUs...this should be good, or not.

This pours a straw gold, slightly hazy, has a 1 finger head of foam with very few bubbles rising to the surface. Gorgeous lacing to boot...for some reason, this pour strikes me as a well poured draught beer.

It smells very Pilsener with a fairly meaty amount of malt and a well above average nose of hops...lots of citrus in that there smell. Very nice.

And the taste backs up the smell and then takes it up a notch. Solid malty backbone with a superb citrusy, somewhat piney flavour of hops that comes from the dry hopping. Some bits of grass as well. Good lord, this is one tasty son of a gun and I can't help but lift my glass way to often. Very crisp overall and dry, and superbly drinkable, and marvelous.

Okay, this one is hitting the spot like crazy. This has to be in the top 3 German Pilseners I've tried. Kudos to Sixpoint and kudos to Joe, but where's the reference to the "Sehr"(very, in German)?? ;^)

Update: This is a 12 ounce can from Brooklyn.

A cloudy pour from 12 oz can with hefty dose of oranges and tropical fruits. Punchy.
