Total Eclipse is our take on a rye porter. Suprisingly, this beer is not made or infused with chocolate. Basic rye is malted and then kilned at a specific temperature to create chocolate flavors. German Carafa malt is also used to create an intense dark color while keeping out astringencies caused by grain husks. Lastly, lactose sugar is added to give the beer a creamy mouthfeel. Various hops are added in moderation to keep bitterness low (22 IBU's). Total Eclipse clocks in at an even six percent alcohol by volume.

Pours black into an English pint. Mocha head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Sweet roasted nuts and chocolate aromas. Creamy upfront with chocolate and roasted nuts turning dry in the lasting pumpernickel and espresso finish.
