North Riding Brewery Eclipse
Pale Ale 4.5 º
This Australian Sparkling Ale showcases the vibrant Eclipse hop, delivering a modern twist on a classic Commonwealth style. Pouring a brilliant medium gold with a persistent, frothy white head, it opens with high-intensity aromas of zesty citrus and fresh pine needles, layered over subtle pear and apple esters. The palate features a clean, bready malt foundation that quickly gives way to a firm bitterness and resinous hop character. Highly attenuated and effervescent, it finishes bone-dry and crisp, leaving a lingering trail of citrus zest and herbal pine. It is a refreshing, high-carbonation ale that balances traditional fermentation character with bold, new-world hop impact.
Appearance. Medium gold (approx. 5-6 SRM). Tall, frothy, persistent white head with fine bubbles and excellent lacing. Noticeable effervescence with brilliant clarity if decanted, though it may appear cloudy if the yeast is roused.
Aroma. Moderate to high intensity. Prominent notes of zesty citrus and crushed pine needles from the Eclipse hops are complemented by pome fruit esters, specifically pear and green apple. A low, clean bready malt presence sits in the background with a faint, mineral-like edge.
Taste. Initial impression is a soft, bready malt sweetness that is rapidly overtaken by medium-high hop bitterness. Flavors of zesty lemon, orange peel, and resinous pine dominate the mid-palate, supported by subtle pear esters. It is highly attenuated, leading to a dry, crisp finish with a lingering citrus and earthy hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a very high, spritzy carbonation that provides a mouth-filling carbonic bite. No alcohol warmth at this ABV. The texture is smooth yet lively and gassy, with no residual sugar or cloying sweetness.
