(12oz bottle) Great Divide Brewing Co., Denver, CO.

Pours a light brown/dark amber in color.  Small oatmeal colored head. Heavy malt bouquet with a distinct malty finish. Relatively smooth which belies the 8.7% abv.  Great Divide describes their Hibernation Ale as a malty, robust English style  Old Ale.  I’d have to say that pretty much sums it up.  I found it similar in flavor to a Sam Smith’s brown ale but it is a much fuller, heavier bodied version.
