Two cans of Two Double IPAs in one 4-Pack. These are both hazy in style.
These two Double IPAs are brewed with the exact same base recipe and then fermented and dry-hopped differently.
Eclipse - exclusively uses a newly released Australian hop that was developed by cross-pollination between Australian and North American hops. It is very bold and brings notes of intense lime zest, pepper, and pine needles. It was fermented slightly cooler and dry-hopped aggressively.

Murky pale blond colour. Compared to the Idaho 7 sister, this one is more dank, more full bodied, still quite juicy, maybe a bit more residual sweetness, with orange juice. It's bolder, and there doesn't seem to be that final astringency.
Very good.

Poured from the tap. Murky gold with white head. Dank citrus hops, mild pot, and a fair bit of chalkiness. Decent nonetheless.

473mL can, pours an opaque, dirty milky yellow with a small white head. Aroma is rather chaotic and harsh, with pot-like hops, lots of dankness, chalk, and sweet malt. Flavour is both dank and chalky -- there's lot of pulpy stone fruits, lots of chaotic chalkiness, aggressive dank hops, and sweet malt. There is little harmony here, lots of chaos, and too much chalkiness, creating a lot of murk in flavour. This isn't impressive, and for the price tag ($24) is even less impressive.
