On tap at Pompton Craft House, ’24 updated German-styled light pilsner retains fizzy lemon spritz, maize-dried minerality, grassy hop astringency and sugary pilsner malt base.

SIXPOINT SMOOTHIE HAZY IPA
On tap at Hoover’s Tavern, proudly hop-juiced moderation retains ‘smooth’ consistency as lemony orange zesting tingles light spruce-tipped piney hop dankness. Tropical pineapple-mango-peach-tangerine-grapefruit tang stays subtle.
SIXPOINT SPILLED BEANS PORTER AGED IN WHISKEY
On tap at Taphouse 15, warmly spirited whiskey-barrel aged 5Beans Baltic Porter lets Turkish coffee and smoky black cardamom spicing of original version to invite honeyed chocolate smidge to contrast oaken vanilla tannins as latent rye, star anise and espresso illusions emerge.
SIXPOINT ATOMIC-RES NEW ENGLAND STYLE TRIPLE INDIA PALE ALE
On tap at Triton’s, lustrous tropical fruit juicing and creamy caramel malt syruping (plus well hidden 11.8% ABV) provide plenty of spunk for bold NEIPA. Vodka-dipped peachy pineapple tang, candied mango-tangerine-grapefruit splurge and honeyed cantaloupe sweetness coated by sappy pine resin in thickly tongue-coated mix.
SIXPOINT PARTY HAT NEW ENGLAND-STYLE INDIA PALE ALE
On tap at Plank Pizza, lemony yellow grapefruit juicing fortifies reserved NEIPA with “no bitterness” nor expected haze. Sunnily citric Galaxy-Citra-Mosiac hop tang gains mildly dank pine resin as subtle grapefruit-juiced orange rind bittering contrasts delicate pale malt-sugared peach, pineapple, honeydew and nectarine sweetness.
SIXPOINT BERRY JAMMER
Briny Seltzer-watered sea salting underscores juicy lemon-limed strawberry, raspberry and cranberry adjuncts of Sweet-Tart gose. Candied berry fruit punch secured by pink peppercorn-spiked salinity.
SIXPOINT JAMMER
Dry sea-salted coriander tartness and tangy lemon-limed zing rig refreshingly crisp and mildly acidic light-bodied gose. Perhaps too unassuming at briny seltzer-watered citrus finish. Easy drinkin’ summertime fodder too evaporatively desolate taste-wise for bolder thirsts.
SIXPOINT BARREL-AGED BIG RASPY IMPERIAL STOUT
On tap at Morris Tap & Grill, salty Berliner Weisse-affected raspberry tartness puckers bitter black chocolate malting and tannic Widow Jane Bourbon subtlety, retaining lactic-soured mocha response. Mild oaken bourbon tangent gains subtle port-burgundy wisps at sour raspberry pureed smoked chocolate finish.
SIXPOINT PARTY PINATA DOUBLE IPA
On tap at Growler & Gill, Mexican piñata-styled cocktail pivots pineapple-pureed toasted coconut juicing and milk-sugared vanilla creaming above sour lactic acidity like the finest hybridized hazy-yellowed New England IPA’s. Subtle grapefruit-orange tang and tart lemon-candied spurt amiably relegated by pineapple-coconut caking. Another durably original lactic NEIPA.
SIXPOINT BINARY
On tap at Stone & Rail, dryer-than-usual Imperial IPA promotes sharp grapefruit and orange rind bittering above moderate herbal hop dankness, resinous pine and floral whims.
SIXPOINT BOURBON BARREL-AGED 3BEANS PORTER
On tap at Growler & Gill, light Willett bourbon influence and mild legume-like Romano green beaning receive coffee-roasted chocolate malting. Treacly whiskey tone hits quick as cocoa, vanilla, espresso, crème brulee and chocolate fudge illusions decorate the tame mocha bourbon finish.
SIXPOINT KOLD SCHAUER
Easy quenchin’ Kolsch-styled moderation with light lager mouthfeel lets sea-salted lemon rot souring, hay-grassed barnyard astringency and musky hop oiling desiccate sour-candied grapefruit and yellow grape tartness in stylish fashion.
