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!

February 13. That day of the year you find out (or reaffirm) if your significant other is a cheapskate and doesn't want to pay Valentine's Day dinner and flower rates.

Meanwhile, at Lost Winds, trivia-ing happened both fastly and furious like. After watching Shaun White shred that amazing gold-medal winning run, we got down to business.

The squad from Wooly Caterpillar got off to a lead and never relinquished it the entire evening. Must be the birthday magic that was exuding from that squad. Meanwhile, Liquid Bread finally found the magic formula to finish in last place and take home that prize. It was truly incredible.

Join us next week as we prepare for world domination! I mean, trivia!

Tuesday, Tuesday, so good to me.

Many important things happened on Tuesday. Here's the list.

1) New beer was tapped at Lost Winds. It's a dubbel. Try it.

2) New winners arrived.

3) Wooly Caterpillar did something brilliant that I can't right about here, but would love to tell you about in person.

4) No one was harmed in the making of the trivia show.

 

The most important fun fact of the game: Moist Wizard Gizard accomplished a truly incredible feat. They managed to only get 9 questions wrong on the entire night. To put that in perspective, there are 51 questions in a nightly show. They answered 42 questions correctly, and only scored 13 points. In fact: They got all the questions right in 2 rounds (and didn't double) and doubled down in 4 rounds and got a total of 8 questions wrong. They also missed round 4, but who's counting? Anyhow, I believe this to be an unofficial KT record for lowest score with the most questions correct.

Kudos to our new winners, and most importantly, to the wonderful ladies behind the bar who kept our glasses full for the evening. Until next week!

It was crank the music Tuesday this week at Lost Winds. We rocked out to many a good tune. And we also put on a pretty great trivia show as well. Come for the trivia, stay for the beer, and the pretty awesome tacos as well.

The two person squad of Disco Funeral Parlor got off to the early lead, but faltered late, allowing room for the folks of Wooly Caterpillar to come from behind for the late win.

The Squad from L Dubby Dub owned the drinking round and were closest to identifying the total distance sang about in the song "500 miles" from the Proclaimers.

Join us next week as we have a new set of questions, and hopefully some new guests as well!
