How to switch the iron-router layoutTemplate if not logged in?

Question

In iron-router I use this before hook to check if logged in:

requireLogin: function(pause) {
    if (! Meteor.user()) {
      if (Meteor.loggingIn())
        this.render(this.loadingTemplate);
      else
        this.render('accessDenied');
      pause();
}

The problem is that I want to switch the layoutTemplate if they are not logged in. I'm using a login drop-down by the way. Advice?

To switch to another layout template, I believe you can do:

this.layout('yourLayoutTemplate');

You can also try this.setLayout, as stated in this discussion: Redirecting not logged-in users with iron-router... Again
