The best I've had from 450 North and one of the most enjoyed NEipas I've had. Poured from a 16 oz. can into a pint glass yields a hazy golden colored beer with a finger worth of light tan colored head. The taste is juicy with citrus. Mouthfeel is soft and dry. If this wouldn't have been an IPA I would've bought more to keep around.

A pint can from a four pack dated 08/10 poured in a 12oz. tulip glass.
Look- Pours a slightly hazy dark gold yielding a finger of creamy white foam. It slowly settles revealing moderate lacing.
Smell- Spicy onion, floral, orange slice, pine and malt in the back.
Taste- Floral notes, followed by pineapple, grapefruit and some orange zest.
Feel- Creamy smooth with a slightly bitter semi dry finish.
Overall- I've enjoyed everything we've seen up north from 450 and this is no exception. A very easy drinking DIPA named for the eclipse, what's not to like? Perhaps the price at $16.99 which starts to approach some Transient or Windmill which I drink often and find a notch above for the style. That's just a comparison and opinion for conversation. I'll continue to buy them for now because I'm intrigued with where they're going and feel they're getting better.
