Last Christmas I was back home in the UK and Hobgoblin was on tap everywhere for some reason, served cellar temperature through handpumps. I really didn't care for it, preferred a Cumberland Ale that was also flavour of the month in my home town.

 

How was the recipe modified and where's the original source? and whats with the weird weights i.e. 58.29g of Fuggles [lol]

 

What level are you carbonating this to? the cask version is almost flat which I struggle to emulate and have enough serving pressure from the keg with English ales, I generally have to keep switching off the gas after a session.

 

Whats your mash schedule and subsequently your expected FG? From a cask this has a really nice full mouth feel but out of the bottle I find it a little thin and over carbonated for an ale.
