Brewer notes

Eclipse is a Australian hop variety. Expect mandarin, citrus, fruity, and pine character from late additions or dry hopping. Flexible enough for both bittering and later flavour/aroma additions; it is commonly associated with IPAs. The catalogue alpha-acid default is 17.2%; always use the value printed on the current packet or lot for bitterness calculations.
