9 Beers to Christmas
Hibernation Ale from the Great Divide Brewing Company. Wow, I am 3 for 3 so far, as this is another great beer. Hibernation Ale gets its name wisely. A few of this 8.7% ABV will send you off to sleep with the bears, but at least if you do hit Hibernation, the journey would have been well worth it.
The beer poured dark mahogany and had a sweet bready nose. The head was small, less than a finger with little or no lacing. My first taste was full on malt sweet…brown sugar and maybe molasses and then a nice hoppy finish. I love malty beers this time of year and the hop finish really melded well with the sweetness. This was a great winter beer I must look for again.
