    “This is not true. We recently have begun producing some of our cans and draft beer outside of the Lion Brewery. Jack it is now safe for you to retire your bias. ;-)”

    Shane, thank you for that input! Are you willing to share with us what other breweries are producing Sixpoint beers?

    Also, have you stopped the practice of solely labeling Brooklyn, NY on your cans? Customers such as me, who like to be informed customers, want to know exactly where the beers we purchase are brewed.

    Thank you in advance for your open and transparent response to my queries.

    Cheers!

    Jack

    P.S. Before it gets lost in the shuffle, I have always been a fan and advocate for Sixpoint beers that are brewed at the Brooklyn Brewery location.

    Good thing the 3Beans (bourbon barrel aged) will be coming out again this Spring - but very limited, and draft only (no cans this time around).

    BBA 3 beans say what?!!
    I really hope the usual suspects who always carry Sixpoint over here (mainly Barcade) gets a keg of that awesomeness.

    The Brooklyn based brewery I wish we saw in the UK, as opposed to that other one which is on every supermarket shelf and in every other pub.

    Anyway Resin or Sweet Action for me. Looking forward to hopefully trying Hi-Res soon.

    Well, I honestly look forward to it. I can also now say Hi-Res no longer alludes me, I just picked up 2- 4 packs at Wegmens, I'm really excited to try it.

    PS: Your cans are the absolute coolest out there, bar none. Love them.

    They should. Best bet is to actually tell the bartender or bar manager to make sure to order it.

    You are in luck! We will have our beers in the UK in March - including Sweet Action, Bengali Tiger, and Crisp. All of the places that will carry it will be available for notice on our Sixpoint app. Download the app in March and it will direct you to the nearest Sixpoint pub.

    I feel that my favorite is Global Warner. I may not have rated it as high as some of the others, but it is a nice easy drinking brew. The amber malts and grapefruit really agree with my palate.

    Bengali Tiger and Hi Res. But honorable mention goes to Otis on Nitro-tap.

    Not exactly 'lose faith'- but you know how it is; there's a lot of stuff vying for one's attention these days. I kind of mentally back-burnered some of your more recent releases. But I guess I couldn't ignore all of the talk about Hi-Res, and wound up enjoying it so much that I'm looking onto what I may have missed- in fact, I picked up a four-pack of Global Warmer today on the way home. Can't wait to pop one open.

    surprised to see less mention of Righteous Ale. Was the first beer I had by Sixpoint canned or otherwise; was crazy delicious then and has been good everytime I've had it since.

    Wish I saw more of their draft-only stuff out at bars, granted I'm not searching hard as I could be. Had an Otis stout a few years ago that was amazing, eager to eventually try Gorilla Warfare.

    Brownstone is great...hell, they're all pretty damn good. Apollo is the only brew I specifically remember disliking when first drinking it, but thats mostly my aversion to the style itself. Also, been waiting since that new site went up to see Harbinger in cans!

    Hi-Res.

    I've enjoyed pretty much everything I've had from them. But this one really blew me away.

    Hands down, Gorilla Warfare. Had it on tap at Rattle n Hum last week, it was delicious.

    BTW, is Gorilla Warfare ever canned, or is it tap only?

    Let me think....hmmmmm, what do I like from Sixpoint? How about Resin, Bengali Tiger, Global Warmer, Hi-Res and Sweet Action. My beer stock ALWAYS has something from Sixpoint...they brew awesomeness.

    Hard to pick one. 3beans was too good to just brew once. Love Resin, definitely should be in more conversations about excellent DIPAS (I have seen it come up more lately). Hi-res is impressive. I've enjoyed Autumnation. BUT...the one I've bought the most of has to be The Crisp. Very tasty and highly quaffable.
