FIFTYFIFTY 2018 Eclipse [Top Eclipse variants all-time on RateBeer]( Limited. Hitting Stores Now. "Fall in Truckee means Eclipse season with all hands-on deck as we bottle, wax and ship a year’s worth of Eclipse in a matter of weeks. Eclipse much? If you’re not familiar with Eclipse, it’s our award-winning barrel aged Stout that gets released each fall in a variety of styles. Every year we select our favorite barrels from a variety of Bourbon manufacturers, fill them with our award-winning Stout, and let them age for anywhere from 3 to nine months. During the aging process they mature or ‘grow up’ as some of us like to say. This maturation allows the used barrels to impart their natural flavors into the beer. The result is nothing short of amazing in our opinion, though we’re admittedly biased. Flavor wise, we have some classics, and usually a few new ones each year." *** Share this issue: [Like RateBeer Weekly: Top 10 Winter Headlines, Top 80 Beers of Q3, FiftyFifty Eclipse 2018 Release on Facebook]( [share on Twitter]( Get in touch: [sales@ratebeer.com](mailto:sales@ratebeer.com?subject=sumpin%20bout%20RateBeer%20Weekly) --------------------------------------------------------------- mailto:sales@ratebeer.com?subject=Top%20Banner%20Placement%20Inquiry&body=*This%20email%20goes%20out%20to%20160%2C000%20people.%20Please%20include%20as%20much%20info%20as%20possible%20incl.%20desired%20goals%20%26%20timing.%20Thanks!* [ADVERTISEMENT: INQUIRE HERE](mailto:sales@ratebeer.com?subject=Top%20Banner%20Placement%20Inquiry&body=*This%20email%20goes%20out%20to%20160%2C000%20people.%20Please%20include%20as%20much%20info%20as%20possible%20incl.%20desired%20goals%20%26%20timing.%20Thanks!*) [Click to warp to:] [TOP](#Top) | [IN YOUR REGION](#Sightings) | [LIMITED RELEASE](#Search) TOP EVENTS RateBeer's most popular events, by region.
