Drink legendary. This distinct ruby beer’s sweet caramel and fruity aromas tease the taste buds. Brewed with smooth and rich Chocolate and Crystal malts & a blend of Fuggles and Styrian Golding hops. Expect a delicious full-bodied toffee flavour and a fruity finish of figs, raisins and dates. Hobgoblin: Born Different.

Bottle from NK in Stockholm. Nice roasted caramelly beginning. Moderate bitterness with Ale-typical flavours. The body is not too watery, easy to drink and still full-bodied with a dry malty-roasted Ale-ending. Nice!

500ml bottle shared with djoeye. Fawn coloured head with good lacing on top of a clear copper coloured body. Mild aroma of dark bread and dried fruits. Malt-fruity taste, hints of nuts and mid-sweet caramel malts. Dried fruity backbone. Short roasted malty end. Thin to medium bodied. Worth buying and drinking(Tromsø 05.12.2014).

Klar nøttebrun farge med en fin off white skumtopp. Noe risted malt og nøtter i aromaen sammen med noe fruktighet. Grei middels kropp med en mild sødme og noe bitterhet. Bra balandse til å være en 3,5% svensk butikk øl. Noe ristet malt, mye karamell, en anelse citrus hume og noe fruktighet. Absolutt drikkbart. Bedre enn mye annet ræl.
