Episode Summary

John Harris, the legendary Oregon brewmaster and owner of Ecliptic Brewing, joined us at the Reuben's Brews Taproom in March 2022 to celebrate the launch of Cri-Star IPA, a collaboration between Ecliptic and Reuben's Brews. Adam Robbings, co-founder of Reuben's, sat down for a Q&A and public tasting of our Crikey IPA, Ecliptic's Starburst IPA, and the collaboration mashup of the two: Cri-Star. Listen in to the conversation along with the dozens of craft beer fans who were in attendance.

Episode Notes

This special episode of Reuben's Sightglass was recorded live at Reuben's Brews on March 8th, 2022 at the Seattle launch of Cri-Star IPA. Many thanks to John Harris of Ecliptic Brewing for making the drive up to Seattle and for the Reuben's and Ecliptic teams for making this delicious beer possible! 

Cri-Star is a mashup of Reuben’s Brews Crikey and Ecliptic Brewing’s Starbust IPA, which both feature a similar blend of hops. 6.8% of collaborative IPA glory, the result is a tropically floral IPA with notes of citrus and pine.
