Picked up as part of a mixed sixer from the Energy Mart beer gas station cooler 10-24-24 for $13.99. Canned 8-31-24; consumed for review 12-13-24. Cold stored since purchase.

Beer poured unfiltered gold with an okay white head.

Nose is nice, getting a good dose of tropical and citrus fruits.

Taste is your classic fruit bowl that is giving me some orange, peach, mango, and tangerine. Finishes with a nice pine bitterness; 7/10 on my scale.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and smooth.

Overall, i totally dig the sum of the hop parts, very tasty with a nice bitterness!

Not the biggest fan of hazy ipas (like old school ipas better) but this came in their mix 12 pack that I recently bought. Love the look of this and it has a pineapple and white grapes smell. Thick and creamy with more hoppiness than a usual hazy with the grape skin and grapefruit taste. Slightly sweet. I like this better than most hazy Ipas because of the grapefruit bitterness it has.

 

ECLIPTIC PHASER HAZY IPA 6.5 abv
This beer pours cloudy and golden in color with a big head. The first sip shows big fruit of pineapple, apricot, grape skin and some hop tannins to balance the heavy fruit flavors. This is a very good tasting brew that is well make with lots of differing hop flavors mixing it up on your tongue. I love the taste and highly recommend it. The hops used are Citra, Azacca, Mosaic and Motueka . The Motueka hops are from Australia.

Pale yellow in cookie with some haze, not much head on this one. Fruit cocktail aroma. Flavor is lightly hoppy with some tropical and citrus notes, but overall fairly subdued. Mouthfeel is light, with moderate carbonation. Overall, decent.

 

 

 

Pours looks and smells good. Taste is a bit flat and not much fruit. Average for me at best.

 

 

Taster at Growler Guys. Orange golden pour, thin head, lacing. Aroma is tropical fruit, ripe Melon. Tropical fruit continues in the taste, along with a splash of citrus. Overall, it's kind of them and finishes way too fast.

only having this one for the first time now, man am i happy these guys have hit idaho like they have, everything so fresh and good so far, long a favorite of mine, now i have such good access! canned just over a month ago, end of january, and drinking brand new to me. good haziness to it, creamy white head on top of a starchy looking pale orange body, no sediment visible or anything, but it looks relatively dense, thank goodness for the high head and carbonation. the nose is fun, modern, mostly dry hopped to me, and packed with fruity layers from white lifesaver candy to peach nectar bellini style, maybe a little honey sweetness but not a whole lot from the grain. the flavor is killer too, the hops explode early and then turn bitter late, one of the more bitter finishes for a hazy that i can recall in recent memory, almost spicy late, but it works and it doesnt clash with the fruit first, like fruity pebbles or something, even the blue ones, crazy. definitely off dry, i like the residual sugar extending this and balancing the finish, its kind of needed. bright texture even with the body, its pillowy and gentle but sturdy too. i love the aftertaste, its like good weed smells, and this does have a little of that west coast oily feel, almost a coastal hybrid then. stone fruit abounds as it warms, never green at all but very saturated, wildly unique really from a hop standpoint, absolutely adore the hop profile and pungency. this is great beer, a current favorite in this style even. ecliptic absolutely on point right now for me!

 

Love this beer! Hot summer afternoon Hickory NC at the Tap Room. On draught, wonderful citrus taste and smell.

12 oz can. Pours hazy milky yellow with a huge bubbly white head that retains well and leaves some lacing.

The aroma is subdued - wheat malt and some resiny hops.

The flavor is wheat malts with a little fruit and a decent resiny bitter finish. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with smooth carbonation.

Overall, a nice NE IPA.
