ORIGINS
Lay Day first started as a tropical lager, a popular style in San Diego where original HQ brewer, Spencer, hailed from. At the time the thought was that new age lagers would become a popular trend in craft beer but while Lay Day had a cult following, the fruitier lagers didn’t really take off as expected. When we opened Black Hops II in a more working class suburb on the Gold Coast, we thought a straight up lager would be a must so we brewed Pine Ridge Lager, a more traditional and less hoppy offering. The beer was a hit at the taproom and outsold Lay Day, in time, we realised that a straight up lager was more valuable in our lineup. We weren’t ready to give up the Lay Day name so we changed the recipe and kept the name.
