Taste Buds 168: Winter means Hibernation (Great Divide’s Hibernation Ale)
From the Brewer: Hibernation Ale from Denver’s Great Divide Brewing Company is an English-style Old Ale. This robust, dry-hopped ale has a malty richness balanced with a complex hop profile and hearty, warming character. Hibernation’s massive flavors are so intense that it requires over three months of aging each year. This lengthy aging process gives Hibernation its revered malty richness, complex hop profile and hearty warming character, which is perfect right out of the bottle or cellared for longer periods of time. Gold Medal: GABF, 1997 ;Silver Medal: GABF, 2003 & 2006
