Great Divide Hibernation Ale:
Greetings all and welcome back to your one stop shop for winter ale knowledge and curiosity. Today let’s go back up to Colorado and look at Great Divide’s Hibernation Ale (also, while we are up here lets look at a furnished apartment to rent, we’re up here enough looking at beers). The beer pours a nice dark amber with a touch of red undertone, a nice creamy head that leaves a good amount of lacing in the glass and a nose of roasted malts, cocoa, and caramel notes. The beer’s taste is almost a mirror of it’s nose though the caramel and cocoa notes aren’t quite as noticeable as they are in the nose, but they are there, showing up mainly on the back end along with a bit of dryness. This beer really does live up to it’s English Old Ale style with having enough malts to…I don’t know, through a malt party, or something like that with lots of…malts and stuff. Okay while I go and try to be more cleaver, find yourself a bottle/tap/six-pack of this beer and enjoy it, it’s worth it.
