A dark ale brewed with Chocolate and Crystal malts, with Styrian, Goldings and Fuggles hops. Fuggles are used early in the boil with Styrian late hopped. The British cask version of this beer is 4.5% while export bottles sent to the USA are a mere 3.5% so obviously affecting flavour and style.

British advertisements for the beer used an image of a hobgoblin accompanied by the slogan, “What's the matter, lager boy - afraid you might taste something?”
