Born out of the notorious Wychwood Forest, where being different sits at the heart of our DNA, Hobgoblin champions beers with depth and character.

Crafted with character, Hobgoblin is an award-winning, British ale that captures the imagination and delights the tastebuds. First brewed in 1988 when our iconic Hobgoblin burst his way into the spotlight, we’ve been brewing an unmatched selection of premium ales ever since.

With hoppy, intense flavours and a truly unmistakable look, these are beers that are proud to be themselves, to be enjoyed by those that appreciate a great ale when they try one. Though we may have a bit of mischief in our nature, we’re passionate about brewing the best for ale aficionados of every taste, for every occasion.

Each beer bottle contains 500ml of ale.

Tasting Notes:
An IPA with legendary status, forged from the finest hops. Famed for its taste explosion of hops, grapefruit and honey, leaving a juicy bitterness to finish.
