Sixpoint Brewery is building a new state-of-the-art brewery and taproom in Gowanus, Brooklyn, set to open in May 2020. The 20,000 ft space will feature a production brewing system, a full-service kitchen and bar, a street-level outdoor beer garden, and a 4,000 ft2 rooftop beer garden with stunning views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan skylines.
The new taproom will bring a unique experience to the New York craft market. Located on the corner of 9th Street and 2nd Avenue in Brooklyn, the historic warehouse building was first constructed in 1904. The space will feature huge windows, 16-foot ceilings, heavy timber columns and beams, and exposed brick.
Sixpoint’s taproom will feature a year-round rooftop with sweeping views of the above-ground, F and G subway line that passes directly overhead and dramatically crosses the Manhattan skyline. The full-service taproom and rooftop bar will have 30 taps and a cutting-edge menu.
The design, which is a collaboration between Sixpoint and architecture firm, Gerner Kronick + Valcarcel (GKV) will be influenced by the building’s unique story, the uniqueness of the Gowanus neighborhood, and the history of the Sixpoint brand and its connection to its Brooklyn roots. GKV has designed iconic New York projects like the Ford Amphitheater on Coney Island, Zuma NYC, and the Beekman Hotel.
The project is being developed by Industries Capital Partners (ICP), a premium Brooklyn-focused developer. ICP is curating a set of innovative food and beverage businesses and creative office tenants to occupy the space.
