If you Google 'goblin ale' you'll find several Goblin brand beers and ales
around today, but it's hard to tell how long they might have been around.

Subject: Glass Bottle

I have a clear glass bottle that I am having difficulty identifying despite
the maker's marks. This comes from an early 20th century feature
(1910s-1940s). The shape is similar to that of a soda bottle, with a round
base and suction scar, stippling all over the body except the areas that are
embossed. I only have the base and body portion, the shoulders and
neck/finish are missing. The embossed marks include the word "GOBLIN" inside
a large triangle and then an image of a goblin holding what looks like a
pint glass inside of a circle. If anyone has any idea of the origin of this
bottle I would greatly appreciate it.
