Keg at Astrid, Östersund. A fresh and pleasant IPA with gentle haze from a reliable brewery.

Bottle from Systembolaget. I really didn't quite understand the point of this. Sure it delivers a little more Belgian profile to lager, which gave it a satisfying ending but it didn't stand out.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Nothing on the nose. Plain and a bit thin look. Slight sweet hopping in the profile.

Keg at the taproom, Gothenbrug. Branded as just "Eclipse". A well-made, well rounded IPA. Did the job nicely.

Keg at the taproom, Gothenburg. Soy sauce aroma. Caramel appearance. Easy but not taking me anywhere of note.

Bottle from Auntie Suzanne, cheers! A bland but clean enough ale that can be justified for daytime drinking over Christmas.
