What is Days Lager?
Mike Gammell and Duncan Keith set Days up in Edinburgh: the company was registered in 2019, and the beers launched in 2020. Days doesn’t own a brewery; a brewing partner makes the beers, in Scotland according to Tesco’s listing, though Days’s own site now says only “Brewed in the UK”. In May 2026 Sunrise Alliance Beverages, which owns St Peter’s Brewery and brews Efes in the UK, took control of the company, Companies House shows.
Days relaunched its Lager with a new recipe in May 2025: a traditional Helles made with Bavarian Weihenstephan yeast and Hallertau hops and a stepped fermentation, then de-alcoholised at low temperature, the trade press reported. Days’s own description: “Clean, crisp & sessionable, with floral and citrus notes.” We used to say it was built without alcohol from the start. That’s how Days described its first recipe, but today it says it de-alcoholises its beers.
It has 10 kcal per 100ml, or 33 kcal a can, with 2.1g of carbohydrate per 100ml, on the label as Tesco lists it. The ingredients are water, malted barley, hops, sugar, yeast, natural flavouring and salt. The label says it’s vegan; it isn’t gluten-free. For more, see the best alcohol-free lagers.
