For all the experimental and out there beers hitting taps and fridges across Australia in recent years, it's often been those of a more traditional bent that have picked up the country's major trophies. Sitting happily in that lineup is Mismatch's Lager, winner of the prestigious Champion Independent Australian Beer at the 2018 Indies.
It's not a beer that tries to reinvent the style or offers any twists, just a classic lager inspired by the helles of Munich that's darn well made. Malt led, with a soft sweetness and gentle herbaceous, floral aromas from the use of German hops, it's delicate, clean and disappears faster than it has any right to.
