Commercial Description:
Total Eclipse Black Ale has been described as similar to a light, dry stout. Characterized by its distinctive hop aroma and rich, black color, Total Eclipse redefines the way you think about a dark ale. Brewed at a low temperature to create a refreshingly dry finish, Total Eclipse uses only the finest two row malted barley and hops grown in the great Pacific Northwest. This combination results in a clean, crisp, hand-crafted experience.

Dark ruby/brown/black color with a large head. Slight acrid, espresso aroma. Chalky and ashy flavor. Light body and thin. Some piney hop and it seems like a hint of citrus hops as well.
