To celebrate the arrival of spring, Badger is launching Billy Stinger, a new tongue-tingling seasonal cask ale brewed with nettles, which will be available throughout the estate during April and May 2014.With a gloriously grassy aroma, this 4.5% zingy beer is sure to lift the spirits and have Badger lovers everywhere queuing up for its deliciously refreshing herbal flavours.Commenting on the latest countryside-themed seasonal beer, Head Brewer Toby Heasman explains, “Billy Stinger is brewed with nettles and has a subtle herbal character that lingers on the palate, so it’s great paired with a fragrant Thai curry or Asian-style fishcakes, but also works just as well with a succulent roast lamb for Sunday lunch.”Billy Stinger is made with Dorset spring water that has been naturally filtered for up to a century through the Cretaceous chalk downs and drawn up 120ft from the Brewery’s own wells.Billy Stinger will be available in all Hall & Woodhouse houses.For further information or product samples please call Nickie Davies, Positive PR, tel: 01935 389497 or email: nickie@positivepr.co.uk, or contact Anna Corbett, Brand Manager, Hall & Woodhouse, tel: 01258 452141 or email: anna.corbett@hall- woodhouse.co.uk www. badgerales.com (072) April 2014Background information:Hall & Woodhouse has been brewing Badger ales in the heart of the Dorset countryside since 1777.
