This Belgian-style ale brewed with salted caramel and brown sugar pours into the glass a glowing red color with excellent clarity and a small, wispy, tan head with little retention. Belgian yeast character dominates the complex aroma.

This beer has a pleasant, slightly grainy malt aroma and no hop aroma at all. A hint of sulfur is also present, but not distracting. The color is a very bright pale straw. A white head persists on the beer as gaseous bubbles continue to rise from... Read More

Some dark malt character (subtle roast, some breadiness) backed by chocolate comes through in the nose. There is a suggestion of an earthy/herbal hop aroma, but it's very light.

Hop and fruit aromas are subtle and complex (mild citrus and hints of mint, pineapple and passion fruit), but they dissipate fairly quickly. Light caramel and bready malt sweetness are also present.

Mild citrus aromas (e.g., tangerine) fused with alcohol undertones are notable up front in the aroma. Some developed malt sweetness – hinting at caramel – lingers in the background. The color is goldish-orange, very bright, with a thin head of... Read More

Moderate lactic and buttery aromas rise from this American Wild Ale, which take on more of a background character that's damp and earthy as it warms. This beer pours an opaque orange color, though there is no visible sediment. The white head... Read More

Aromas of toffee, caramel, vanilla and a slight hint of oak come through upon first whiff with no discernible hop character. The beer featured a nice, light brown color with slight chill haze that had very nice carbonation. Small tiny bubbles... Read More

Upon first whiff, a low malt and hop presence was found in the nose along with a few slightly fruity esters as well. Pouring a clear, straw wheat color, the beer had a nice carbonation that featured a fluffy head of tiny bubbles that clung to the... Read More

Sixpoint’s Hi-Res should come with a disclaimer: "Warning: May cause lupulin jealously when drinking other IPAs." In a nutshell, this beer is intense and not for the faint-hearted.

How to get your jolt of morning java with a lighter beer you ask? Well, Sixpoint’s C.R.E.A.M. is a clean, blonde beer with a heavy dose of coffee. It’ll open up your nostrils with an above-average dusty, earthy coffee note with hints of bell... Read More

An intense, freshly-squeezed grapefruit juice aroma with lemon and resin is the first thing that will greet your nose followed by moderate, honey-like grainy malt. Hidden underneath are light berry esters similar to strawberries.

Bengali’s huge mandarin, grapefruit and resinous aroma isn’t for the faint of heart. The medium-low caramel and grainy malt aid in providing a counterpoint for the hoppy yet clean aroma.

Sixpoint’s Sweet Action opens with a moderately-low lemon, piney hop aroma with faint hints of sweet caramel. Pithy fruit is also apparent. It’s a bit darker than most cream ales – coming in at more of a dark amber/light copper color with... Read More

This cleanly-lagered beer has upfront herbal, peppery hops with notes of bell pepper along with a very faint grainy malt aroma. Pretty to look at, the golden beer sits underneath a stand of white bubbles that’s fairly persistent but isn’t as... Read More

After swirling this attractive, opaque brown beer with a dark, thick, tan head in the glass, I'm hit with spicy chilies and green pepper aromas – other malt/hop aromas were masked by chili heat. As the beer warms, the aroma opens up to reveal... Read More
