Wychwood Hobgoblin Strong Dark Ale
Posted: Sat Jul 22, 2006 12:15 pm
Picked this up at Mass Beverage, mostly because it was new to me. (And the bottle looked cool!)
Style: Strong Ale? Dark Bitter?
Pros: Nice chocolate, carmel, toffee notes. Appropriate amount of bitterness for an English beer.
Cons: Nothong of note. Travelled well.
Rating: 8 (pretty good)
Additional Comments: Dark Ruby Color. Flavor profile changes significantly between 50 degrees and room temp. Colder, you get carmels/toffee notes. Warmer, you get the chocolate/fruit notes.
I do like it. In fact I am looking for an all grain recipe right now!
