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 from Fette Sau. Brownish copper, nice grassy taste. Some malts. Upstaged by the BBQ, but then I was at fette sau of course.

draft @ ginger. Poured dark but a disappointingly weak taste for a D-bock. Watery I thought. Sixpoint usually misses for me and this was no exception.

Draft at Waterfront. Poured dark. SOme sweetness. Not a lot of wheat. I could take it or leave it.

Draft. An ale with lots of hops and such going on. Drinkable I guess. Nothing else to say.

Cask at spotted pig. Hazy w/medium head. Some citrus and stuff, not really that interesting but maybe it was just because this is a stupid beer for a cask, IMO.

Draft. I must have had a bad keg because i found this rank smelling with some nasty hops. I will avoid.
