Eclipse
Elaborated
We think Eclipse is the best beer in the world. We don’t say this lightly and this doesn’t mean it’s the best beer at any occasion, but after a dozen years, countless awards and with our continued focus on crafting the truly best flavors each year, we are pretty proud of it and think you’ll agree.
