Description
A Tribute to Hobgoblin Gold | 40 Pint Beer Kit
Tribute to Hobgoblin Gold Homebrew Beer Kit produces a refreshing light amber gold ale with a smooth body, gentle malt character and an inviting citrus hop aroma. Fresh, subtle citrus notes give way to a full yet highly drinkable flavour, while the hops provide a satisfying punch without making the beer overly bitter.
A delicate malt sweetness and subtle savoury, nutty character add depth and make this a particularly moreish golden ale. Smooth, balanced and easy drinking, it is an excellent choice for those who enjoy refreshing British golden ales with a modern hop character.
Tribute to Hobgoblin Gold homebrew beer kit produces 40 pints of approximately 4.6% ABV light amber gold ale. Made using brewery quality liquid malt extract, speciality grains, carefully selected hops and premium brewing yeast, it gives home brewers an easy way to create a full flavoured golden ale at home.
The Commercial Brewery
Wychwood Brewery became well known for its distinctive range of beers and memorable fantasy-inspired artwork, drawing inspiration from the myths and legends associated with the ancient Wychwood Forest.
The brewery’s Hobgoblin range has become particularly recognisable among British beer drinkers, with Hobgoblin Gold offering a lighter, golden alternative to the original dark ruby ale. Its distinctive character combines refreshing drinkability with a balance of malt and hop flavour.
Please note: This is a Dark Rock Tribute homebrew beer kit inspired by the style and flavour profile of Hobgoblin Gold. It is not manufactured by, affiliated with or endorsed by Wychwood Brewery or the Hobgoblin brand.
Tribute Homebrew Beer Kits
The Dark Rock Tribute Series allows you to brew beers inspired by some of Britain’s best-known commercial favourites. Each recipe is carefully researched and developed using selected malt extract, speciality grains, hops and yeast to recreate the individual character and flavour profile of the beer that inspired it.
Every commercial brewery has its own unique brewing water, equipment, fermentation methods and house yeast. For this reason, Dark Rock Tribute beers are not intended to be exact clones. Instead, they are carefully designed interpretations that allow you to brew an excellent beer inspired by the original.
We recommend making the beer, trying it alongside the commercial version and seeing how close you can get.
Our experienced brewers carefully select every ingredient to create premium homebrew beer kits with genuine flavour, aroma and character. From classic British bitters and golden ales to rich dark beers and modern IPAs, the Dark Rock Tribute Series gives you the opportunity to brew a wide range of commercial beer-inspired styles in your own home.
Brew it. Compare it. Enjoy it.
Why Choose Dark Rock Homebrew Beer Kits?
Dark Rock Beer Kits make it easy to brew exceptional, full flavoured beer at home. They are ideal for both beginners and experienced home brewers who want premium results without the time, equipment and complexity required for all grain brewing.
Unlike basic beer kits that use pre-hopped extract and require little more than mixing with water, our premium extract beer kits give you greater involvement in the brewing process. Each recipe uses carefully selected brewery quality liquid malt extract, speciality grains, premium hop pellets and premium brewing yeast, allowing you to build layers of authentic malt and hop flavour.
The result is an easy-to-use homebrew kit that bridges the gap between traditional extract brewing and more advanced brewing methods. You get more control over flavour and aroma while still using standard homebrew equipment. Our ingredients are carefully blended to suit each individual beer style, helping you create everything from crisp pale ales and classic bitters to rich stouts and bold IPAs.
Whether you are brewing your first 40 pint batch or have years of home brewing experience, Dark Rock Beer Kits provide a straightforward way to produce beer with genuine depth, aroma and character.
Brew with confidence. Brew with Dark Rock.

Brewers Tips
Tribute to Hobgoblin Gold Beer kit includes Pure Brew, a professional brewing enhancer designed to support healthy fermentation and improve brewing water. It provides essential yeast nutrients while helping neutralise chlorine and chloramine, which can contribute unwanted flavours to finished beer. For the best possible results, add the included Pure Brew as directed in the brewing instructions.
You will also receive Harris Starbrite Beer Finings, a vegan friendly beer clarifier that helps encourage yeast and other particles to settle, producing a brighter, clearer finished beer. This is particularly useful when kegging and can help reduce sediment transfer.
Your Tribute to Hobgoblin Gold beer kit also includes a disposable hop T-bag to make adding and removing the hop pellets simple and convenient. For home brewers who want to upgrade their setup, a reusable stainless steel dry hopper can provide greater hop circulation and can be cleaned and reused for future brews.
Tip: To get the best hop character from your finished golden ale, avoid excessive warm storage after conditioning. Once the beer has matured and cleared, serve it cool to bring out its refreshing citrus aroma, smooth malt character and clean, highly drinkable finish.

Brewed this some weeks ago and have had the pleasure to try it.
Brewing:
Easy to brew instruction are very clear can’t really go wrong.
Taste:
Serving this via a king keg top tap and got a really good head not to gassy as I can control this via the keg. This brew isn’t massively far off of hobgoblin gold but to be honest this taste better in my opinion.
Makes a nice drop and is close to hobgoblin gold! comes with easy to follow instructions which make it almost foolproof!
Hobgoblin Gold bordering on Shipyard. Absolutely lovely hoppy beer. Served from a corny keg it tasted better than bottled Hobgoblin Gold. Best as we reached the last few pints –; leave in the keg for 4 to 6 weeks to mature before drinking – if you can wait!
Really good beer my first time trying a part grain this was that good that I have gone straight to all grain
