11 August 2009 - Badger Original – a taste of the past in the present
Using as inspiration the first Badger ale which was supplied to farm workers in the 1700's and later to the army in the Napoleonic Wars; Original is a premium adaptation of the famous draught Badger Best Bitter, benefitting richly from the experience of generations of Head Brewers from those times to today.
The water used in all Badger beers is Dorset Spring water that has been naturally filtered for up to a century through the Jurassic chalk downs and drawn up 120 feet from the Brewery’s own wells. The heritage of the Hall & Woodhouse yeast dates back to 1934 and the then Head Brewer, John Elliot Douglas; from this date it has been nurtured by its brewers. Despite being 75 years old and having completed over 15,000 brews it is still growing and fermenting as well as ever.
Badger ales use only the very best raw, natural ingredients to brew its premium ales, which are created from recipes that have been passed from generation to generation. Badger is proud of its history and provenance in Dorset and both are fundamental to the fine quality of each of its premium ales.
