Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
Hi all, I just discovered a very remarkable Ale from Lynchwood Breweries. It is called 'Hobgoblin' and has fantastic flavor and character. Dark ruby-red color with a nice somewhat creamy head.
Not sure if it is available in the US, but definately check it out.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
It's available in Houston.
Not a big fan of the Lynchwood Breweries products as sampled over here. One never knows for how long they've been travelling or under what climatic conditions. Of course, drinking them fresh on the other side of the pond is a wholely different proposition. If you like Hobgoblin, you'd probably also enjoy Theakston's Old Peculiar, a very similar style IMO.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
Old Peuliar IMHO is better. I can not remember why because it has been far too long since I last enjoyed a nice beer but I do recall I liked it better. Less hoppy maybe??? Not Sure. Anyway Life is too short for cheap beer.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
Hobgoblin is good and is readily available. I actually liked Fiddler's Elbow a little better, though.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
Well, now I will have to try and find a pint of Theakston's Old Peculiar. Sounds great.

Hobgoblin is good...the last batch of homebrew I cooked up was a hobgoblin.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
Went down to an English pub in Savannah with the family. I was having the fish and chips and thought a Hobgoblin would accompany it well. Boy was I right...great flavor, and I'd forgotten how sweet this beer is at room temperature.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
Tazziedevil: I do some homebrew as well. I made an English Bock from a kit brand called Festa Brew. It is my all time favourite kit. No water added, just yeast, and it tastes like great quality brew.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
I recently started enjoying craft beers. Hobgoblin is one of my favorites!! I can easily find it here in KC.

Re: Wonderful Beer Discovery - 'Hobgoblin'
They actually came out in the U.S. several years back and had lots of inconsistency issues. They reformulated it for export and now the product is very consistent and they did a nice job with it. It should be available everywhere very soon. A classic English Ale, tasty and refreshing.
