Ecliptic Brewing - Mothership Brewery

Ecliptic Brewing is a venture from John Harris, an Oregon beer icon whose background is steeped in the state’s rich craft brewing history. John started as a brewer at McMenamins in 1986 before moving on to Deschutes Brewery where he created the recipes for beers such as Mirror Pond Pale Ale, Black Butte Porter, and Obsidian Stout. From there John went to work at Full Sail Brewing and in 2013 he opened Ecliptic Brewing. The name Ecliptic unites Harris’ two passions: brewing and astronomy, and as such, the brewery celebrates the Earth’s yearly journey around the sun through both its beer and restaurant menus. Harris’ signature beers include Ecliptic Brewing Starburst IPA, Carina Peach Sour Ale, and Capella Porter.
