Another gold medal is coming back to Fort Bragg, California! North Coast Brewing’s Laguna Baja was recently awarded a gold medal at the Tastings.com World Beer Championships. 

Laguna Baja was recognized with an exceptional ranking of 90 points in the Dark Lager category. Described as “a dry, very food-friendly lager with a lengthy finish of dark toasty nuts and grains,” Laguna Baja is the epitome of a dark lager, with its malty and light style. 

A classically styled Vienna lager in the Mexican style, Laguna Baja has a full and creamy body with an ABV of 5.0%. Inspired by the grey whale migrations along the Northern California coastline, Laguna Baja captures the essence of the brewery’s home.
