Bone Chiller

Tap to rate

Bright tangerine notes and just a hint of winter spice make this 5.3% winter ale smooth and easy. It is pitched for the end of a long day on black diamonds or, let's be real, bunny slopes, when all you want is to sip and chill instead of wiping out again. A seasonal release from Brooklyn's Sixpoint, which sends every ale out raw and unfiltered.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant tangerine and bright citrus notes, immediately evident and clean. Subtle winter spice—hints of cinnamon and gentle warming aromatics—emerges in the background without dominating. Underneath, a soft maltiness grounds the bouquet, creating balance between fruit and grain without any harsh or yeasty character.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and approachable, with orange and citrus flavors establishing themselves early on the palate. The mid-palate reveals light caramel notes and soft malty sweetness that supports but does not overwhelm the citric profile. Bitterness remains restrained at 28 IBU, allowing the spice and fruit to lead while providing gentle structure and dry finish.
