Hi all
Looking for a 5 gallon recipe to get me close to hobgoblin...need to brew soon for xmas..
any help please ...not adverse to kits either !!!!

[jaroporter]

have a search around for orfy's hobgoblin recipe, probably via homebrewtalk.com. seems to be accepted as very good. and seems like it's gonna get you close to the original version, which is a bonus - i miss it..

be interested to hear what you brew and how it comes out!

This is the one I followed and thought it tasted exactly the same as Hobgoblin. This and Punk IPA have been the best AG brews I've done.

I did the same recipe as alexlark and put into a cornie on Sunday - tasted nice then and hoping to do a compare in a week or two. Hobgoblin is a good beer.
