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.

Bottle at Angel Spoons, Basingstoke. Low key citrus aroma. A slight haze to it, otherwise a golden amber. Thin opaque white head. Surprisingly hoppy. Pine and resin. Really quite hoppy after spicy food! Lightish but slick. Flat carb. Long dry astringent finish. Packs a punch for the style.

Keg at Brewdog Manchester. A hazed golden orange coloured pour with a lasting thin white head. Aroma is dull dishwater, grassy citrus, pear drops, meh. Flavour is composed of semi sweet Base malts, orange rind, light tropical fruits mango, dull. Palate is semi sweet, frothy carbonation, jammy fruits. Disappointing.
