A starburst galaxy produces an exceptionally high amount of stars, similar to how Ecliptic Starburst IPA produces a soaring amount of hop flavor. Brewed with Amarillo, Azacca, Centennial, Citra, Mosaic, and Simcoe hops for fresh flavors of citrus, fruit and pine. 100% pale malt makes for a super clean finish and puts the focus on the hop flavors and aromas. Starburst IPA is dry hopped to the end of the universe!

12 oz can poured. Crazy seeing the Ecliptic est. 2013 on the can, as I remember stumbling across the brewery during soft opening on accident that very year and having a brew just like this one, on my way to Stormbreaker. Not sure if it was this brew, or a version of this brew. Perhaps I'll never know. No surprise they have made it this far since those days. Golden orange with a gentle haze. Foam head that lasts. I love that the brewery puts out this big near 8% brew, and it's their standard IPA. Stone fruit aroma. Bold and bitter hops with plenty of citrus tones. Lingering citrus peel like bitter. Solid IPA overall, and definitely belongs on their year round lineup.

Sampled from the tap at the Portland location. Pours a clear gold with a yellow hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has grass and earthy tropical fruits with citrus rind and light grain supporting. Flavor has more citrus rind and pine with a touch of dank mango supporting.

Clear gold body with lasting white head. Pineapple aroma. Tarty hop taste, there's citrus but not only that. Hoppy finish.

Claims to be a juicy, tropical IPA, but it's a West Coast hop-bomb at heart, full of sticky, bitter pine and grapefruit pith hiding behind an initial rush of mandarin, passion fruit, and peach. Develops a grainy sweetness towards the middle, but quickly dries out for an old-school lingering bitter finish. Very tasty.
