Lost Winds Brewing Company
Description
Lost Winds Brewing Company was founded on the idea that thoughtfully made craft beer can appeal to the masses – from casual beer drinkers that enjoy lighter ales to craft beer enthusiasts seeking hoppy IPAs, sours, stouts, saisons, and barrel-aged beers. We are excited to introduce you to our line-up of craft beers.
Lost Winds Brewing Company is located halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego, in a small beach town known as “the Spanish Village by the Sea”. San Clemente has long been an idyllic place to surf world class breaks and hit the beach with friends. Tim Thralls, founder and award-winning home brewer, together with Brandon Winneker, our classically trained head brewer and Seahawks Junky are now helping to make San Clemente a world-class craft beer destination. [MEET THE CREW]
YES, WE KNOW IT’S CALLED “LASUEN”.
The ocean and the history of our California beach community are central components of Lost Winds Brewing Company. Our brewery is named after a local surf break and beach, Lost Winds, which many don’t realize is named after a loose pronunciation of the street that leads to the staircase to Lost Winds Beach, “Calle Lasuen”. Lost Winds, LW, Lasuens… all the same beach. Padre Fermin Francisco de Lasuen himself was a Franciscan Priest and successor of Saint Junipero Serra. He founded nine of the iconic missions up and down the coast of California; and he is even responsible for introducing the classic Spanish adobe style ubiquitous around town and at all California missions.
Good surf, a classic beach community, a little bit of California history, and now great beer. We love where we live and can’t wait to see you at the brewery!
