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.

Pours hazy pale yellow and has a light, citrusy aroma. The flavor is of really mild hops bitterness, a little resin and citrus, and some weak malt. It’s light bodied and very bland, a thoroughly pointless beer. Why is this a thing?

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.

Not bad, offering up a lot of mango and papaya and orange zest, maybe a little peach and green apple thrown in for good measure, followed by a hint of pine and a whole heapin' spoonful of booze. No doubting the ABV on this one. Could use a little taming, but still a nice pint.

Can from Wegmans. Says 8%. Hazy gold with a small off-white head. Nose is floral, orange and grapefruit peel, bread crust, white wine. Flavor is chalky citrus peel, white grape, green grasses, aspirin. Not very good... I would not want to drink this again.

My can says Hazy IIPA w/ sauvignon blanc grape juice; and the description is totally different. I hope this is the right place, I almost put in a new listing. My can is 8% not 7.7%. Oh well, there are so many IPA brews out there and so many taste the same but now I see onthis can it says the IBU are only 5, so how can this be IIPA? Go figger. It does smell like a floral IPA. Eye is somewhat light pale in color. Big foaming white head, wants to overflow my glass. Not sure how the IBU can be only 5, its quite bitter like many IPA, even doubles. A little less viscous than most impy IPA but it does have that warming sensation about it with every sip. Difficult & odd middle, bitter as all hell with somethin that I cannot identify in the background, rather rude. These tall skinny sixpoint cans are certainly unique. They've become a warning sign for me to stay a way, like the sound of a rattle snake or the color of a hornet. I cannot get into this and to call it a spritzer is totally misleading. On the finish it almost generates a gagging action. Straight up rude ass eye pee aye beer, whew. Nasty's nellie. Yuck, would not purchase another and I'm glad this session is over. Well, big hairy deal.

Some mango and lots of hop resin, notwithstanding the name. Pours murky orange with ok head. Light hop tang finish. Not a lot of character. Can.

(Tap) hazy, bright, very pale yellow colour with a small white head; faint aroma of jam; dry flavour with a long, light bitter and mineral finish. Wimpy, boring, forgettable.
