Meet the brewers behind Sixpoint beer sharing their story, and their passion for making tasty beverages here in Brooklyn, NY

Touring the Sixpoint brewery in Red Hook, Brooklyn, NY.  It’s operated out a tiny workspace not much bigger than a 2-bedroom apartment in the heart of Brooklyn’s Red Hook community.  Still out of the tiny brewery come some of the most creative, and lovingly brewed beverages available in New York.

Sixpoint is close to where I live in Brooklyn and is available at many of the best bars around NYC, so I hope to visit one of my favorite local breweries during American Craft Beer Week!
