(Brooklyn, NY) – Sixpoint co-founder, Shane Welch, joined the Seacoast Beverage Lab podcast a couple weeks back to discuss Sixpoint beers, Hurricane Sandy impact and more. A few notes…

TOP SELLERS

– Sweet Action is far away the most popular in New York

– Resin is most popular in other markets like Chicago, Ohio

– Bengali Tiger is tops in Massachusetts

SANDY

– Infrastructure damage was severe and much worse than initially thought

– Sea water came in and flooded a lot of the electrical equipment

– All plumbing and electronics in the boiler were damaged, for example

– Effectively shut down for two months but now ‘back and stronger than ever’

– Disrupted Mad Scientist series production which is now back to normal with the latest release, #15 – Sixpoint Grätzer
