Kicking back in the sunshine with a cold beer in hand, does it get any better than this?
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, and barrel-aged beers. From our gold medal winning session beer Unstable Table, to our fan favorite TropiClemente IPA we’ve got something for everyone.
Our taproom is located in the Rancho San Clemente business park, close to Rainbow Sandals. We have food trucks on site most days of the week, including Taco Tuesday when we host our weekly trivia night! We’re also known for our monthly Pints & Pistons Classic Car Meet, held on the 4th Sunday of every month.
We’re so excited to be celebrating 5 years of business this October, and we’re throwing a huge parking lot party on October 16. This 21+ event is totally free to attend, and you can expect to find some of the finest food trucks in O.C., specialty beer releases throughout the day, and live music to get down and dance to. Bring your friends, because it’s going to be a day to remember!
