Total Eclipse – Dark Lager with Cocoa & Chili
 

 Total Eclipse draws inspiration from ancient Mesoamerican traditions, where cacao-based drinks and natural ingredients played a central role in culture and ritual.
 

 This dark lager reinterprets those elements through a modern brewing lens, combining maize, cocoa nibs, and chili to create a layered and distinctive profile. Smooth and well-rounded, it offers a delicate balance between sweetness, bitterness, and gentle heat.
 

 Maize contributes a soft, rounded body, while cocoa nibs introduce subtle notes of dark chocolate and a mild roasted character. A carefully measured addition of chili provides a warming finish that lingers briefly, enhancing the overall experience without overwhelming the palate.
 

 Brewed in the spirit of classic Mexican lagers, hop usage is intentionally restrained, allowing the core ingredients to take centre stage. The result is a complex yet highly drinkable beer, where each element is expressed with clarity and balance.
 

 Awarded a Bronze Medal at the XII National Craft Beer Contest (2025) and recognised as the 3rd Best Portuguese Craft Lager, Total Eclipse stands as a bold and original interpretation of a historical flavour profile.
