Heftily hopped & aroma packed, Hobgoblin IPA stays true to its ancestral traditions. Brewed with Fuggles, Golding & Styrian hops and then amped up by the addition of some mighty American hops. This collision of Old and New World hops provide an explosion of tropical aroma and a juicy bitterness. Born out of character.

Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso resta attratto dal luppolo. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e la maniera in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è media. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è deciso. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. In bocca l'aroma è quello di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, arancia amara e ananas.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Mild floral and fruity hop aroma with malt, notes of citrus, some caramel, orange. Flavour is sweetish with a moderate bitterness. Body is medium. Unsurprisingly mildly hopped, but not bad at all.

Аромат немного хвойный, есть ветки и травки немного, намеки на карамель от английского солода. Цвет карамельный, пена средняя. Вкус по началу нормальный, с хорошей карбонизацией, но затем хвойные нотки становятся слишкими яркими, прямо как будто шишки ешь, особенно при глотке хмель прямо горький и долгий. Немного карамели. В целом пить можно, но на раз.

Can from Vrutak Kaptol. Huh, a bittersweet rate, wat with Wychwood closing down soon seemingly... Slightly hazy dark amber body, off-white head, medium but not staying for too long. Quite fruity aroma, stone fruit esters mostly, perfumey, rose water, caramelly, just low oxidation. Dryish taste, interrupted by a moment of soft maltiness, orange and herbal notes are there, some stone fruit esters again. This is holding up quite nicely considering it was probably canned Sep 30th 2023 (looking at the best before), just some oxidation is there down the line, but this is and was a very decent beer I feel!

Bottle from Co-Op, Whitstable. Poured a clear golden colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is caramel malt, light woody hops. The flavour is over-moderate bitter, with a smooth, fresh, earthy, light citrus, woody hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

This is good it's got a hoppy aroma and flavour and nicely balanced bitterness
Earlier Rating: 7/30/2022 Total Score: 3
Fairly malty, orange hops not much tropical fruit and maybe not to much of an IPA. Pleasant enough though.
