Notes

An attempt at cloning https://www.wychwood.co.uk/beers/hobgoblin-ruby/. Targeting 4.5%, which is cask/draft Ruby (bottled Ruby is 5.2%)

Based on, among other things, "Hobgoblin Dark Ale clone" from "Chocolate Malt" (https://byo.com/article/chocolate-malt/).

Not sure if Hobgoblin Ruby is an Irish Red or English Brown, so pick something in the middle. The "Matches styles" section of this recipe hits both.

BU/GU for Irish Red = 0.43
Northern English Brown: 0.54
Southern English Brown: 0.43

Acceptable hops are Fuggles (preferred @ 60mins, 4.4 AAUs), Willamette, East Kent Goldings, Goldings (US), and Styrian Goldings (preferred @ late, 5.5 AAUs).
