Portland, Oregon’s is a serious beer city known for its breweries. And Ecliptic Brewing is one of them.

Founded John Harris, an Oregon beer icon, the brewery always keeps things interesting and given that they will be celebrating their tenth anniversary in the coming year they’ve a bold beer lineup planned for the coming year.

The Outer Reaches Series is new for 2023. This project allows Ecliptic to play at the forefront of beer trends with rapidly released, one-off, small-batch beers. The labels will feature actual space imagery from various telescopes/NASA, offering a learning moment for its customers: exploring new beers alongside the outer reaches of space.

Ecliptic’s Cosmic Collaboration Series returns in 2023 featuring seven collaboration beers crafted with prominent breweries such as Fort George Brewery, Boneyard Beer and Sierra Nevada Brewing Co.

The Moon Room Series will return in 2023 featuring four different lager beers. Other classic Special Release beers, such as Oort Imperial Stout and Orange Giant Barleywine, will also return, along with some fresh concepts, including Super Phaser Hazy IPA, an amped-up take of the company’s flagship hazy.

Ecliptic’s Limited Release Series will feature the companies’ fresh hop beers which are always a good time. And the brewery will continue its barrel-aging program, the Reserve Series, including a new collaboration brew with Helioterra Winery and fan-favorite Barrel-Aged Sedna Tiramisu Stout.
