lol, but it would be a tasty beer. Chocolate and ginger tones. So little time...so little time.....

I think next time I do the Goblin I'll look at taking a gallon from secondary and doing it.
Any ideas or similar techniques to suggest?

Good question, what is the grain bill for the goblin? (Never had it). I would try to get the chocolate tones from the (you guessed it) chocolate malt. If it's already there, perhaps ever so slightly upping it. The ginger I would go with crystallized ginger. Something about using fresh ginger seems too forward to me for some reason, although I am not sure why. Plus you can snack on the crystallized one hehe.

I was thinking of making a tea of boiled fresh grated root ginger and cocoa powder then adding it to secondary.
