Badger - Long Days

Badger - Long Days
I like Badger beers generally, the light floral touches and fruity tones, the spices they use too. The 'Cricket' beer was a lovely summer drink this year, 'Blandford Fly' and 'Pickled Partridge' are favorites of mine also.

I'm also lucky in that one of my relatives used to work for Hall & Woodhouse so there is always a lovely well stocked fridge in that house!
This evening i tried their 'Long Days' 4.5% beer, specifically brewed with summer in mind apparently. It might remind me of summer but when i was a kid perhaps, the raspberry flavour is for me too sickly, its like sherbert sweets or fizzy lace strings, just a touch to much.
I think i'll go back to Lemony Cricket, a far far better summer drink.

    Have to disagree - the finest summer ale I ever tasted!

    Do they still have this in their range? I did their brewery tour last month but dont recall seeing it in the shop, possible its a seasonal bottle not on this year??
    Anyway thanks for stopping by!
