From Ecliptic:

Portland, OR  Earth. (April 13, 2022)- Ecliptic Brewing is excited to launch their next Moon Room Series beers – Japanese-style Rice Lager and Japanese-style Rice Lager with Jasmine – shipping April 20^th in 16-ounce can four-packs and draft. The Moon Room Series features a collection of lager beer in celebration of Ecliptic opening its second location – The Moon Room – which is well setup for lagering.

The beers are brewed with pilsner malt and Adeena hops, as well as rice, which helps keep the beer light in color and body. The variant is finished with a considerable amount of jasmine, offering a floral nose and flavor. Says Ecliptic’s Owner and Brewmaster, John Harris, “We’ve had a lot of interest in brewing a Rice Lager, and these fit in well to our Moon Room Series. Both beers are crisp, clean and finish dry and refreshing – a great springtime offering.”

Moon Room Series: Japanese-style Rice Lager and Japanese-style Rice Lager with Jasmine will be released in both draft and 16-ounce cans throughout Ecliptic Brewing’s distribution network beginning April 20^th. Visit Ecliptic’s website for up-to-date details on potential release events.
