24 September 2007 - HALL & WOODHOUSE LAUNCHES TWO NEW SEASONAL BADGER BEERS

With autumn fast approaching, Dorset brewer Hall & Woodhouse is delighted to announce the launch of two brand new bottled Badger beers to refresh the body and warm the soul:

Pumpkin Ale

The perfect beer for Halloween, Pumpkin is a premium 4.6% ABV autumn ale with hints of roast pumpkin cloves and peat. This sweet and slightly smoky ale is especially recommended for accompanying pumpkin pie, sticky toffee apples and carrot cake. The back label of the bottle features a recipe for a delicious Pumpkin Ale Soup.

Poacher’s Choice

This liquorice and damson flavoured 5.7% ABV bottled beer is Hall & Woodhouse’s record fourth winner of the prestigious Tesco Drinks Awards. Poacher’s Choice is a smooth, dark ale enhanced by a touch of liquorice for spicy sweetness and damson for a soft, subtly fruity taste. Its robust flavours combine well with game, desserts and mature cheeses.

Head Brewer Dr Tim Morris comments: “By adding natural extracts to these two new beers, we’ve been able to enhance their traditional flavours with an exciting combination of fruitiness and spicy bitterness. Pumpkin and Poacher’s Choice were both carefully crafted through a series of tastings and refinements, and we’re delighted with the end results.”

Pumpkin Ale and Poacher’s Choice are available now in Hall & Woodhouse pubs and selected branches of Tesco.
