Svartå Lager is a fresh and easy-to-drink lager with roots in the unique surroundings of Mustio Castle. Brewmaster Olavi Mensio found wild hops in the castle garden and named them Castle Yard Hops – this is how the beer's recognizable, subtly herbal character was born.
The hop tradition dates back to the Middle Ages and the Junkersborg fortress along the Mustionjoki River, from where it eventually spread to the Mustion Castle area via Sweden from the Holy Roman Empire.
