Lawn Mower
This is Swedish lager. The very first release from the refreshingly experimental Backyard Brewery in Falkenberg, is a ‘lawn mower’ beer – the term used for a crisp, pale and light tasting lager, the kind of beer you drink on a hot summer’s day after working hard in the back yard – except this one comes with bags of additional attitude. It’s loud and noisy, but the neighbours won’t mind (just as long as you invite them round to share one).

Tasting Notes
Fiercely bitter from generous amounts of Zeus, Cascade and Amarillo hops, balanced by a large amber red body built by Pilsner, Caramel and Münchener malts.
Accompaniments
The Lawn Mower’s high level of Caramel malt makes it an ideal complement to rich foods, especially steaks and roasts, or fish & chips. The perfect beer for English pub food, mowing the lawn is not obligatory.
