About Lost Winds Brewing Company

San Clemente locals Tim Thralls, Andrew Mack and Tim Burke, founded Lost Winds Brewing Company 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 with a focus on Belgian style 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, our managing partner 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 as well. [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 Lost Winds Brewing Company!

Go Big or Go Home won first place this week! Two weeks in a row?! Congrats, ladies! Those double downs right off the bat helped launch you to the top!

 

This Tuesday was Find Your Inner Nerd Day, so we decided to test your video game song knowledge. We created an audio round featuring just 10-second sound clips of all the classics like Super Mario and Tetris and harder ones like Halo and Grand Theft Auto. Two teams got eight out of nine, so we asked a bunch of nerdy video game questions, and Mr. Handsome Face won it!

 

And to the new team, 7th Place, not only did you win one of Mitch’s Free Beer Shot rounds - but you also finished second! Well done. We hope you use that $15 gift card next week in another game of King Trivia.

 

Next Tuesday is Jeff’s birthday, so I’m sure we will have something fun up our sleeves. See you then!

 

Your QM, Jeff + Kelly

It finally happened!! Go Big or Go Home won first place tonight with a whopping 73 points! They’ve been coming weekly and building up their team for a while, which has paid off. Congratulations, guys, and thanks for welcoming our friend visiting from out of town to play with you. 

 

They also won the free beer round this week too! Since it was National Tell a Joke Day, we asked everyone to make Mitch the beertender laugh, and while there were some pretty great jokes, theirs made him giggle the most. 

 

A photon walks into a hotel. Bellhop says, “Excuse me, sir, are you checking any luggage?" “Photon replies, “No, I’m traveling light!”

 

Also, congratulations to Brewdogs for coming in second place; You guys played really well! 

 

Thank you all for coming to play Trivia; we will see you guys next Tuesday!

It was a hot day and an even hotter night at Lost Winds! So hot, we decided for our “Free Beer Round” to play what we call, Lick it and Stick It. No, it’s not a postman’s fantasy, it’s a game! All you had to do was lick a marshmallow and stick it on your forehead. The last one to melt off wins! At first, they all stuck so well that we asked participants to parade themselves around the Brewery, but when they stayed put, we had to go for round two. This time asked for participants not to smear it on their heads like they did the first time. The team whose forehead held on the longest was Big Brains

 

Despite how hot it was we kept it cool with fun trivia, icy beers, and lots of laughs. Twelve teams competed; it was a close game up to the end! Team Turd Ferguson was in the lead by a few points most of the night, but in round 6, team Unladen Swallows went for the double or nothing and passed them by a point. In the final round, they ended up winning by just two points! 

 

Thanks for playing, everyone, and we will see you again next Tuesday!
