Steve and I recently experienced Sixpoint Brewery, one after delving into my Untappd app have apparently had before but could not recall since it was quite some time ago. All the beer experiences on what we have had point to two of their flagship beers. The Crisp is one of these beers. It's a pilsner with a crisp, clean flavor. This also has a dry,, hoppy flavor highlights to it also. To be honest it wasn't bad but not necessarily the most memorable of pilsners. It's kind of the same story with the other beer too, an IPA the Resin also was okay but didn't really etch itself in my mind. Flavors noticeable is hoppiness, sweetness and a pine flavor. Both beers are refreshing enough but the beer tastes kind of corporate that doesn't make it's signature for uniqueness all that noticeable. read more

Love this place. Had chicken sandwich. Perfect. I've tried at least 8 beers now and all have been superior. Waitstaff has always been helpful. Cant wait to go back. read more

I'm rate this on the quality of the beers. They are really good. Like, write home to your grandma good. In particular there is a beer called "Coquito cowboy" which tastes absolutely phenomenal. The beer was so good, I even set aside some to braise lamb with. I will be back. So not only was it delicious to drink it was also delicious to cook farm fresh meat with. Pick any beer, and you can't go wrong. read more

If you're looking for delicious beer along side with amazing food and great service this is the brewery to go to. We started off with the pretzel and the spicy beef empanadas and while I was super delicious. The pizza was so yummy and freshly made and the kitchen is right behind you see you can see them cooking your pizza. Lastly the chicken sandwich was very good as well and we ended up adding cheese to the sandwich. They have amazing flights here which is great if you want to try all their different types of beer. The staff was wonderful and friendly and our waiter was super sweet and made the overall experience very good. I would definitely recommend to come here for great beer and excellent food. read more

First time I have ever been here as a local resident. From very low and fruity blends to imperial 14% apv stouts, it's a Brooklyn brewery. Had a couple of bengalis and my homeboy had a stout and an orange blend. Henry chopped it up with us and explained the brewery and everything past and during Covid, cool ass dude who explained everything about the locale and it's future expansion. Really enjoy drinking this specific brand and I from the crowd coming after us it shows I'm not the only one. Got some dope stickers while leaving too, glad you guys support BLM. Keep it up team. read more

Sixpoint Brewery - Saturday - Breweries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A long-time torchbearer of New York beer. Actually, first time I tried them was in London, when I ordered a can of Bengali back in 2014. Wasn't until later that I discovered it was domestically produced: cheers to that! Recently, I've been using the app to get in on the monthly special releases. The app works pretty well, sending a notification when the releases are available and making it easy to book and purchase the desired quantities. Pickup is in Red Hook, accessible either by bus, car, bicycle, walking, or more creative means. Today I came through for the October special release. I had ordered a six-pack of Mega Raspy and a 4-pack of the Jameson barrel-aged stout. These beers and more were also available from the tap, though it was 11 AM so I took it easy. Both beers are fantastic, by the way. Excellent work. I'm excited for the taproom, which is set to open in Gowanus next year. I'll also plug the Jammers, a delicious series of sessionable gose beers. Sixpoint is fine by me, and I wish them success in the coming years. read more

Stopped at Sixpoint Brewery on Saturday afternoon. A fairly limited brewery in terms of both beer and space, but it offers fans a chance to try a few harder to find beers. Quality: Sixpoint Brewery is a bit cryptic about the actual brewery arrangement, so we didn't know exactly what we were walking into. They are more a facility than as a tasting room, but they have set up a small beer garden. They had six beers available on tap, but also offered single cans to add ten more options to the menu. We stuck with the Draft Pours and tried Super Jammer 75, Spritzer Bomb, Velour Tracksuit, and Righteous Rye. All the beers were fine, none really stood out. I think Righteous Rye, a barrel aged rye ale was probably the highlight of the bunch, adding a little kick to the traditional ale. Quantity: They only do Draft Pours in plastic cups, but with only six taps there is not much tasting needed. Value: $6-$8 for Draft Pours. $6-$9 for Single Cans To Stay. Ambiance: Sixpoint Brewery is located in the Red Hook area of Brooklyn. I have passed by several times since my move earlier this year, but this was the first time I saw it open. They have a small outdoor patio area towards the center of the facility. Out front they had a few tables in the sun as well as a food cart. Inside they had about ten high top tables, which were able to grab some shade from the tall walls surrounding the patio. A open space housed a few fridges of beer and the portable tap machine. Music played from the cart outside, but it didn't reach very far. Crowd: It is a pretty small space, but every table was occupied on Saturday afternoon. They are really more set up for beers to-go, but the small beer garden space allows guests a chance to try a small selection of unique beers. Service: The staff was extremely friendly, though a little frustrated with the less than ideal temporary tap set up. They had a water bowl out for our dog before we even had a chance to ask. Parking: Plenty of street parking throughout the area. read more

Visited this brewery while visiting NYC this past week and found myself in there once or twice. Super cute location and decor inside! Watched some of the soccer games there, and love the golden monkey beer! We didn't end up every ordering food but from what we saw that others got it looked really good! read more

I've been drinking Sixpoint since I've been old enough to drink (and probably before then too, shhh), so they'll always have a special place in my heart (especially the Crisp). So when they released their app for the public to buy small batch releases, I knew I had to order some. Plus, they would be opening up their space to the public for the first time ever during can pickup hours! Their building in Red Hook was messed up by Hurricane Sandy, so I heard they're still a ways away from having a real taproom, but they made due with a refrigerator with built-in taps and free samples of everything they had, even super limited edition beers, like the Smoothie and the Dubbletake. They also had a DJ spinning tunes, and a food partner selling empanadas. Staff was awesome, and the artwork on the walls was beautiful. For their first time running an event like this, everything was incredibly well organized. So kudos to everyone who made that happen, and I'll see you guys again soon! read more

Went on a quick date here, which was 75 cent wings Wednesday's. The atmosphere was pretty cool as we were greeted by the fantastic artwork on the walls. We were seated pretty quickly and the waiters quickly approached our table ready for our orders. My date and I decided to try two of their recommended cocktails but was slightly disappointed with the wing flavor selections, (Mild, buffalo and spicy). Nonetheless we ordered about 15 wings to share among the 2 of us. The drinks weren't terrible but we definitely had better. Unfortunately the wings were fried pretty hard so it was a bit of a challenge chewing our chicken. We also ordered a side of fries which arrived cold and pretty salty and didn't bother ordering a fresh batch. The overall experience wasn't too displeasing and the waiters were very accommodating. They asked if we wanted fresh drinks to try but we had to make it to movie on time so we declined but was very much appreciated by the offer. Maybe they were overwhelmed in the kitchen as to why our food was subpar but I think I'd give them another shot in the future to see if anything changes. read more

Sixpoint Brewery - Mild buffalo wings, fries, 2 cocktails - Breweries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I don't know what these "hours" are. Work hours? And why? They are posted on Yelp, on Google. They are not "open today." There's currently no tasting room (why is it so difficult to find this info?) and no tours (this you do see on the website's FAQ). As these reviews indicate, you once were able to drink beer on premises, but this is no longer the case. Don't waste your time coming out here. There's no subway access in this neighborhood and not much else to do in the area. Someone should remove the open times. The brewery is not open to the public. The rating is for the beer. read more

There is no real reason for this place to be on Yelp, as noted. I mean, it's just an advertising station more than anything. In terms of the brews, fan of Sweet Action, Resin, Bengali, and Diesel, probably most Diesel and Sweet Action. In terms of cans, there really isn't much better outside of maybe some of the Cigar City cans (though I have heard 21st Amendment also makes some good cans.) Then again, I think I've mentioned cans a bit too much here. Uhhh, bye. No need to show up. You can find their beers all over the city now, at least in most of the semi-respectable bars that don't just serve liquid cornweiser. read more

Great location, great atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff, great beers! Lively crowd and a beer garden. read more

Sixpoint Brewery - Draft beer menu - Breweries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Rating Woohoo! As good as it gets! Sixpoint has been amazing to me! I reached out them for a giveaway to promote their brand at one of my small events. I was only looking for little trinkets to fill my giftbags. Instead, they donated cases of beer! And they were extremely generous! This is a really wonderful company and I am so glad I had to opportunity to connect with them. read more

Omg!! My experience at Sixpoint Brewery was amazing. I don't drink beer, however, I ask for an alternative and my Destiny recommended that I try cider, she expressed that other customers love it. I tried it and the cider was great with my food. I had the fried chicken sandwich!! It was delicious!! Thanks for your service Destiny!! I'm looking forward to coming back and having you as my host again, such a nice young lady with a beautiful smile. read more

Sixpoint makes great beer and they've finally opened up a little space in the brewery for specialty beer release parties. Just download the app, buy some beer when they go on sale then come in to pick it up on a Saturday. The app purchase gets you in on the "private" party where they serve draft beers, SL cans and have food to buy. There's music playing and a cool beer vibe. So glad they started doing this! read more

Sixpoint Brewery - Breweries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Brooklyn? Kelso? I think not. Sixpoint is easily New York City's best beer brewer. The attention to detail, passion for beer, and quality of ingredients is obvious with Sixpoint. Go on one of their free tours the next time you get a slow Saturday and you'll see what I mean. At the time of this review Sixpoint is a NYC beer lover's dream. 6 months from now when they get too big for their britches, who knows. I really hope success doesn't kill the quality as there is a tendency for this to happen in the small beer world. The only issue I'd mention is that the Cask Conditioned Bengal Tiger IPA I had the other day at the Spotted Pig was not consistent with others I have had. It was completely flat - none of the creaminess I have come to expect. I don't think the cask was set up properly so I don't blame it on the beer. read more

Update your website, in from out of town and took an Uber only to find it's closed. I promise I'll do my beat it stays that away

It's a shame I can only choose 5 stars, because Sixpoint deserves Six. Oh that was cheesy, I know, but it's true. Shane and all the guys working there are great, the beer is fantastic. Check out this video about them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TOK3g4_HIA read more

I love Six Point beer and it's great to have another brewery in Brooklyn. I really like the Sweet Action, a cross of a pilsner and a malt with an orange flavor. This and the Tiger Ale are close and both delicious. Go visit the brewery in the summer and stop by the soccer fields for some great latin food. read more

Sixpoint is hands down one of my favorite breweries. Just about everything they do is exceptional. love the Resin IIPA, Probably the best double out there aside from Hoptimum, Hercules, Captain Lawrence... For all you Yelpers out there...If you are going to review a business, try to make it all around positive. When you bash a business online via review, you are messing with their livelyhood. it is coarse, unnecessary and self serving. read more

Andrew & Shane make some of the best beer I've ever had. OK, OK, Andrew is my step-brother. But still, try it! read more

Don't waste your time. Says it's open but it's really not. Wasted $40 on a Uber to get to a closed brewery. D- Beers anyways. Can't believe I left other half to try and go here. Huge mistake. Cans even taste like dirt. I can't believe that they are still in business. read more

My favorite beer brewed within the boroughs is the Six Points Sweet Action. Last summer I toured this brewery with my boyfriend. We've toured several breweries and have never been on a tour as laid back as this one. Six Points brews its beers in a rented garage behind the Liberty Heights Tap Room in Red Hook and after the tour you're treated to the pint of your choice at the bar. The Saturday afternoon we happened to be there, the bar was hosting some sort of kiddie battle of the bands. Interestingly, Steve Buscemi's son was in this band (it was a two person band, he played guitar and harmonica Bob Dylan-style and the girl in the band sang -- they were really good). Buscemi was there video taping the show, like any proud dad would be. Unfortunately it looks like Six Points isn't doing its regular Saturday afternoon tours in summer 2007... according to the web site they're putting energies into an expansion. read more

My favorite beer from NYC by far! All of the beers are so unique and refined that I am sad that I can't get them here on the West Coast, Yet?... I would Love for you guys to have a tap room where I can taste the beers where they are born. Hopefully next time I visit you will! :) Keep up the amazing work sixpoint friends!! read more

Exactly what Huntington needed. Solid beers, great atmosphere, excellent service, and a trendy place to hang out. I'll definitely be going back. read more

I'm back to loving this beer and must admit, when I see Bengali Tiger or Sweet Action on tap, it's usually a no-brainer. I burned out on the flavor for a while, the same way I would if I ate the same dinner every night. I'm a creature of habit, and loved the 4-packs! My local deli used to sell the 16oz. 4-packs for $10, and I'm sure I did more than my share to advertise the brand, sipping on my Brooklyn stoop the last few summers, cooling off with the freezing cold cans. I'm glad to see Sixpoint thrive, and while I've heard the 4-packs are still in circulation, I don't know where. Any help? Cheers! read more

I love this place. Great guys working there and always great beer coming out. This is the REAL brewery in Brooklyn despite what certain other breweries might want you to believe. Everyone there seems to seriously love brewing and they are happy to help out home brewers. I see a previous post from 4/3/2007 that sounds worried that quality might go down as Sixpoint get successful. Nearly 2 years later I would say they have only become better. Damn, I could definitely go for a delicious six point beer right now. read more

before the tour of the sixpoint craft ales brewery, relaxed a bit at rocky sullivan's - comfortable neighborhood dive bar, housed in the same buliding as the brewery. had the sampler of mozzarella sticks, jalepeno poppers, fries, calamari...standard bar pickins, a bit overfried...washed down with some sixpoint sweet action...ahhhh, good stuff. shane, one of the owners, gave the tour...youngish dude who reminded me of opie (of the "andy griffith show" played by ron howard)...had me in stitches at times, veering into anecdotes unrelated to beermaking, like how he once punched his head into the ceiling stuck when sleeping on a loft...and even taking a long pause to check the contents of the office refrigerator while the group of 20 heads looked on perplexed, "the hell?" more of such moments and stories came aplenty like the rich stock of beer being made in front of our eyes. have a taste of..."sweet action," "bengali tiger," "gorilla warfare," "hop obama". worth the trek out into the barrens of red hook. http://www.sixpointcraftales.com/index.html read more

Six Point is my favorite New York Beer. They capture the malty hoppy flavor perfectly. Sweet Action is just that. I am never disappointed no matter what is on draft. Now if they could just open a tasting room type facility or perhaps team up with the Beer Table in Park Slope or some other bar and have a Six Point Day I would be in heaven. read more

You bastards may have turned me into a full blown alcoholic. If you like Beer and I mean GOOD beer, and live in the five boroughs there is no excuse for not drinking this all the time. Took the tour last summer, it was sort of a Willy Wonka for beer lovers, you get a hands on look at how the beer is made and then free reign to sample to the goods afterwards. These guys know their stuff. Seriously, for fans of Craft beers, you can't go wrong with Sixpoint read more

Great beers at a reasonable price. I had an issue with my service the one day I was there but I returned another night with some friends and it went much smoother! read more

Owners know their beer. They have a great team behind them and a great product. Recently they hosted Beer4Beasts and it was one of the best events I have been to. They brewed special flavors just for the event and I can confidently say after trying about 10 of the 21 or so, they are the real deal. Sixpoint rocks. read more

Just took a tour with danny and marcus, we had an amazing time. Such sweet, informative and down to earth brewers!

Your beers are dynamite-keep up the good work. And don't stop making the Sweet Action.
