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.

Brooklyn Burgers and Beer: pours hazy yellow with white head. Aroma is ginger and lemon. Taste has those two in there well. Not bitter or too sweet. Soft, lightly carbonated body. Weird but Ok.

12oz can. Nice, true, thick, opaque peach body. Head sort of fades, but still laces the glass up. A pretty solid IIPA, well rounded hop profile. Pleasant wheaty-oat-yeast body, no floaties or any of that nonsense. Well done, enjoyable. A rather epic hop blend, I feel like you can taste of all of them.

Almost a great beer. The amalgamation of worldwide hops makes for a curious, grapefruit-heavy pint; sure, there are notes of melon, berry, white grape, bubblegum, guava, and mango, but it's all overshadowed by a clingy, aggressive grapefruit citrus tartness. Which is fine; I like a good grapefruit bomb every now and again. But the astringency comes on fast and furious; hop burn sets in well before the glass is half empty. Honestly, I couldn't finish the pint; not worth ruining my throat for the evening just to get some serious juice. It's a shame.

Hazy golden and peach coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall, just off-white head. Aroma of relatively strong and bitter hops with some juice noticeable from oranges and mangoes along with a grassier and herbal finish, with some alcohol, light sugars and a good dose of malt all coming through in the nose. Medium-bodied; Strong, pungent hops dominate the flavour with a lot of bitterness, some herbal and grassy dryness and a solid malt backbone that makes this balanced and the sweetness from fruits pokes through hear the end, all with a good deal of complexity and range. Aftertaste is bitter of course from the hops, but a pleasant dry malt and solid backbone make this a well-brewed Imperial-ish IPA, but the choice of hops and profiles from them aren't my favourite, especially from this brewery which has better beers, in my opinion, at least. I sampled this slimline, twelve ounce can, purchased from Total Wine in Manassas, Virginia on 12-August-2020 for US$2,79 sampled after cutting my grass at my house here in Washington on 18-September-2020.

Quarantine Beer #115 sampled at home on 05/05/2020. Inky black pour with a medium thick beige head that dissipates gradually to a film. Sticky patches of lace. Coffee, malt and dark chocolate in the nose. Full-bodied with flavors of roasty espresso, bittersweet chocolate and charred malt. The finish is roasty with a coffee and malt aftertaste. Good beer all around.
