About Hike
Hike is Obolon's premium beer range. The company says the recipe for Hike Premium balances two malts, pale barley and pale wheat, which give it a light bitterness and a mild malty taste. Beyond the flagship the line has grown to include a Blanche, a lighter version, an alcohol-free Hike Zero and fruit-flavoured cherry, berry and raspberry variants, most of them sold in half-litre cans rather than bottles.

About the owner: Obolon
Obolon is a privately held company headquartered in Kyiv, Ukraine, founded in 1980. Brandtree records 14 brands under its control.
Obolon is the largest Ukrainian-owned beverage producer, built around a Kyiv brewery commissioned in 1980 ahead of the Moscow Olympics, designed by Czech engineers and sited for its reserves of soft water; it took the name of the surrounding Kyiv district in 1986. Staff took a capital lease on the enterprise in 1990 and it received privatisation certificate number one from the State Property Fund of Ukraine in 1992, making it the first private enterprise of independent Ukraine. The corporation today runs the main plant, two separate production units, two subsidiaries and four enterprises with corporate rights — three breweries, three plants for soft drinks, low-alcohol drinks and mineral water, and its own malting plant at Chemerivtsi — and employs about 4,000 people. It says its beer is known in more than 70 countries.
