Description
Brewed to the same recipe for over 100 years, Sixex is a dark and delicious strong ale with reams of rich, malty flavour.
Sixex pours a tempting dark mahogany with illuminating ruby highlights and a full, creamy head. With wafts of toasted malts, caramel and fruitcake, the use of rich crystal and dark malts lead to a distinct roasted flavour with hints of chocolate, toasted sugars and coffee.
This strong ale is a divine choice for the autumn and winter months – if you’ve got a cosy fire and comfy armchair at your disposal, you’re on to a winner. A consistent winner of top awards, Sixex is a true champion ale.

Of all the bottled beeeeers I’ve drunk since March 2020 this along with others I bought from Joseph Holt is the best. Great flavour, reminds me of being in the Hard and Hound Shudehill on my trips to Manchester.

Graham DONNING (verified owner) –
Excellent quality beer a tad disappointed there is no free delivery within, say, 3 miles of the brewery? If so, I would purchase more!
David Dinsdale (verified owner) –
Really good dark ale ,I found the taste rich and malty with a slight nutty taste. Ideal for winter evenings by the fire.

Love it, proper strong winter ale to savour. Definitely not a session beer, needs to be treated with respect.
Michael Howe (verified owner) –
A very attractive and tasty dark beer. Served cold from the fridge Joseph Holt has brewed a winner here. You would have to go a long way to beat this on taste.

Have it for breakfast dinner and tea if I could. It really is a great beer. It can catch up on you though
Thinking how lucky they are to live near Holt’s pub. Round here some pretentious places charge over £4.00 a pint and often it’s badly kept.
