Our signature brew and first ever beer, we have brewed it with every brewery we’ve worked with. It now has its home at the Great Yorkshire Brewery. Looks like a wheat beer, tastes like an IPA. Our flagship brew - a hybrid style beer rarely seen in the UK. It has a high percentage of malted wheat which when combined with the generous amount of Citra T90s (added as a dry hop post fermentation) gives a beautifully light and citrusy flavour and aroma. Hibernation is unfiltered, unfined and unpasteurised for great taste and at 5.2% it packs the punch that customers expect of an IPA. We have lowered the front end bitterness to put greater emphasis on drinkability and allow the great aroma and flavour of this beer to really shine.

Canned. Hazy orangeish golden colour with a mediumsized creamy white head, which leaves good lace. Aroma is citrus, some tropical fruit, mild grass and some bready notes. flavour is wheat, some tropical fruits, citrus and mild grassy notes. Nice crisp sweet maltiness to it as well. Somewhat dry palate. Nice bitter kick in the finish.

Bottle from Tebay Services, M6, Cumbria. Golden with a small head. Hoppy and fruity in both aroma and taste, it has a slightly dense texture but its strength is not overly evident. Feels slightly steamed.

Can from Pivný raj Pours almost reddish, no head. Aroma is citrus like but feels quite in a background. Taste is bitter and dry, surprisingly bitter, maybe too much.
