The Lager Layer

Not every nacho needs to reinvent the wheel. Some just need to pair well with the beer in your hand. The Lager Layer is the unspoken agreement between hops and cheese, salt and foam — the foundation of every backyard gathering that starts casual and ends with someone arguing about who invented guacamole.

These nachos don’t try to be fancy. They’re engineered for balance — sturdy chips that can handle a scoop of chili without surrendering, cheese melted just enough to stretch but not stick, jalapeños doing all the emotional labor. Every element is tuned to support one goal: making your next sip of beer taste like victory.

The best part? The math checks out. For every chip you eat, you’ll need exactly two gulps to reset the palate. It’s not indulgence — it’s chemistry. The Lager Layer doesn’t demand your attention. It earns it, quietly, like an old friend who knows you’ll call again next weekend.

Because at the end of the day, nachos and beer don’t compete. They complete.
