Butter Backyard Challenge
Summer’s almost over — time to go out with a bang (and a bottle). We’re closing it out Butter-style: backyard games, good friends, and delicious wines that bring all the Butter-level fun.
Gather the crew, grab your favorite Butter wines, and turn your backyard into the ultimate end-of-summer playground. Bowling, ring toss, wine pong — all the classics, but way more Butter.
Grab a bottle (or ButterCans) and let’s play!
Bowling + ButterCans
Set up a backyard bowling lane using ButterCans as the pins and roll a lacrosse ball as your bowling ball. Crack open a ButterCan to celebrate every strike and keep the good times flowing.
Butter Rule: Strikes = sip. Spares = two sips. Gutter balls? Sip anyway.
Why it works: Backyard-friendly and perfect for ButterCans — an instant summer classic.
Ring Toss + Butter Chardonnay
Old-school ring toss? Total glow-up with chilled Butter Chardonnay in hand. Smooth, creamy, and golden — it’s the perfect sip for casual competition (and “oops, I missed” laughter). Arrange 6 empty Butter bottles, grab a few yellow rings, and aim for glory. Butter in hand makes every miss way more fun.
Butter Rule: Land a ring? Pass your glass. Miss a ring? Pour yourself another.
Why it works: Easy to play, easier to pour.
Wine Pong + Butter Sauv Blanc
Level up everyone’s favorite party game — swap the beer for crisp, zesty Butter Sauv Blanc and watch the competition heat up. Fresh citrusy notes keep things lively while you channel your inner college champ. Bonus points for playing in bright yellow cups (aka peak Butter aesthetic).
Butter Rule: Bounce shots = bonus pour. Elbow over the table? Automatic drink.
Why it works: Nostalgia, but make it Butter — refreshing sips for every win (or loss).
Relay Race (Space Hopper) + ButterLight
Remember those giant space hoppers from childhood? They’re back — only this time you’ve got ButterLight in hand. Light, smooth, and made for all‑day sipping, it’s the pour that keeps you bouncing (literally). Mark a start and finish line, pass out the hoppers, and let the chaos begin.
Butter Rule: Fall off? Take a sip. Win the race? Take two.
Why it works: Pure chaos, guaranteed laughs, zero heavy lifting.
Butter Backyard Challenge Rules
Because every good game night needs a few ground rules:
- Every win = a sip. Every loss = two sips (sorry, not sorry).
- Most creative team names get bragging rights (and the first pour).

Pour Butter, Play, Repeat
Summer’s last hurrah is here — make it count. From bowling strikes to pong victories (or epic losses), it all tastes better with Butter in hand.
