“In the 10 years since we opened, a lot has changed in the craft beer industry. For example, people have been looking for lighter offerings, as far as color goes,” says Ecliptic’s Owner and Brewmaster, John Harris. He continues, “Rice was only used in American Lager 10 years ago. The addition of this ingredient really lightens the body of the beer and lets the hops shine through. We are using ...

Says John Harris, Ecliptic’s Owner and Brewmaster,” This is the best time of year. We love brewing with fresh hops and are so lucky to have hop fields less than an hour away from us.”

“We were devastated to learn of the recent wildfires that have caused so much destruction and loss of life in Maui,” says John Harris, Ecliptic’s Owner and Brewmaster. “Garret Marrero [Maui’s Co-Founder] has been a huge leader in the relief efforts there currently, and we wanted to share some organizations Maui Brewing Company suggests donating to below.”

Ecliptic + Sierra Nevada Secchi Hoppy Wheat Ale starts with Pale and Wheat Malts and is hopped with Strata, Amarillo, McKenzie, and Citra. Real orange and lemon peel add a citrusy flavor to this fruit-forward beer. It is named after a mountain range on the Moon, “Montes Secchi,” paying homage to the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains, and it clocks in at 6.5% ABV.

Featuring Pilsner and Carapils malts and Harvest yeast, Ecliptic’s Italian-style Pilsner is just that- light and crisp. The beer is dry-hopped with Tettnang, Saphir and Saaz which provides a nice hop aroma, and it clocks in at 5.2% ABV, making it a very drinkable lager.

Moon Room Series: Italian-style Pilsner will be released in both draft and 16-ounce cans throughout Ecliptic Brewing’s distribution network beginning May 17th. Visit Ecliptic’s website for up-to-date details on potential release events. 

Ecliptic + Ravenna Juicy Lager starts with Pale and Pilsner Malts and is topped off with Enigma, Cashmere, and Mandarina Bavaria hops. Notes of white grape, red currant, and citrus flavors round out this juicy brew, clocking in at 5.5% ABV.

“I thought it would be a fun project this year to take Phaser Hazy IPA to the double IPA level,” says Owner and Brewmaster, John Harris. “We added an extra 1.5 pounds of hops per barrel in the dry hop to really elevate the aroma and flavor. As the beer’s label copy says, ‘we've given her all we’ve got’ – which is a fun nod to Star Trek.”

STARPM IPA is a mashup recipe of Ecliptic’s Starburst IPA and Boneyard’s RPM IPA – both companies’ flagship beers. Both of the original beers are heavily hopped, and the mashup is no exception, featuring Citra, Simcoe, Centennial, Azacca and Amarillo hops for a citrusy and tropical flavor. The beer features a classic malt profile and clocks in at a solid 7.2% ABV.
