The Wychwood Hobgoblin Session IPA is a refreshingly light, hop-intensive session IPA from the Wychwood Brewery in Witney, Oxfordshire, which proves with its moderate alcohol content of only 3.4% ABV that true hop enjoyment and relaxed drinking pleasure do not have to be contradictory, embodying the distinctive Hobgoblin character in an accessible and everyday-friendly way. Pale yellow and packed with five hop varieties from the New World, it delivers a fresh and sparkling aroma, allowing the session IPA to be enjoyed without sacrificing the intense tropical fruit and citrus hoppiness, with the hop varieties Ella, Cascade, Galaxy, Topaz, and Citra creating a lively interplay of mandarins, oranges, tropical fruits, and a pleasantly resinous note, rounded off by a fruity-bitter finish. The Wychwood Hobgoblin Session IPA is the perfect choice for anyone who wants to enjoy the aromatic diversity and tropical hop intensity of a full-bodied IPA in a light, sessionable form, whether as a refreshing everyday companion to light summer dishes and social evenings or as convincing proof that great hop flavors can succeed even without much alcohol.
