The journey commenced in October 2013, as Ecliptic Brewing opened its doors in North Portland, not just as a brewery but as a celestial haven—the “Mothership” restaurant. Fast forward to November 2021, and our cosmic footprint expanded with the Moon Room in Southeast Portland, a taproom oasis boasting an extensive selection of Ecliptic beers and the potential for a full-scale production facility. In late 2023, the esteemed Great Frontier Holdings, a collective of West Coast beer and beverage brands, was fortunate to acquire the Ecliptic Brewing brand. John, a vital force in the Ecliptic family, maintains focus on product innovation and expansion, ensuring our beloved beers reach enthusiasts across the United States.
Located in Eugene, Oregon, our innovative brewing facility produces a diverse range of beers and craft cocktails, spanning from avant-garde experiments to timeless classics all year round. It serves as a dynamic hub where creativity and tradition converge to craft exceptional libations.
Dive into our stellar lineup of flagship beers: Starburst IPA, Phaser IPA, Carina Peach Sour Ale, and Capella Porter. But the cosmic adventure doesn’t halt there—our seasonal series changes quarterly, featuring crowd-pleasers like Flamingo Planet Guava Blonde Ale. Explore a spectrum of Special Releases, Cosmic Collaborations, and exclusive draft-only gems straight from our pilot system.
Ecliptic beers defy earthly confines; discover them gracing the tables of the finest restaurants and retail shops across Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Colorado, North Carolina, Arizona, Canada, and even Japan. Join us in this cosmic celebration, where each sip is a tribute to the celestial dance around the sun.
Pint Can. Pours a slightly cloudy yellow with a meager fizzy white head. The aroma is mostly grapefruit with some sweetened lemons. The taste, liek the aroma is mild citrus featuring grapefruit and lemons and some rock candy on the back end. The palate is light and crisp with soft carbonation. Finishes medium ibn duration. Overall: Decent--But I still don't know what differentiates a "New Zealand" style IPA from any other.
Sample at Denver Rare Beer Tasting XVI (Last Call) on 10/09/2025. Hazy copper-amber color with a medium thin off-white head that dissipates steadily to a film. Sparse patches of lace. Malt, fruit and hops in the nose. Full-bodied with flavors of caramel malt, citrus and piney hops. The finish is boozy with a malt and bitter piney aftertaste. Above average overall.
