Lost Realm Craft Co.
Share
Some things are meant to be found.
Lost Realm tap handles are are officially ready to venture out into the wild -- destined for bars, pubs, restaurants and wherever else a thirsty Realm Walker might roam.
We're not saying exactly when you'll start seeing these out there...but we're also not very good at keeping secrets. So keep your eyes on the taps!
Every great adventure needs the right party.
As we continue building the world of Lost Realm Craft Co., we're excited to announce our creative partnership with Studios.
Together, we're creating more than just can labels. We're building a world filled with original artwork, memorable characters, and stories that come to life with every release. Every beer is another chapter in the Lost Realm, inspired by fantasy, adventure, and the stories waiting to be discovered.
This is only the beginning. We've got incredible artwork, unforgettable characters, and plenty of surprises brewing behind the scenes.
Can art already?
Stay tuned, Realm Walkers. The journey is just beginning.

The Gates Have Opened.
After months of planning, presentations, revisions, and navigating the approval process, we're excited to share that Lost Realm Craft Co. has received unanimous approval from both the Manchester Planning & Zoning Commission and the Historic District Commission.
With those milestones behind us, we now begin the next stage of the adventure: bringing Lost Realm to life.
Construction and build-out are up next, including an approximately 1,800-square-foot outdoor patio designed as a gathering place for travelers, explorers, and adventurers alike.
The plans include:
Dog-friendly outdoor seating for you and your Hellhounds of the Lost Realm
Plenty of outdoor tables and gathering spaces
Games and activities for those looking to linger a little longer
Bicycle parking for adventurers arriving from the Rail Trail and Charter Oak Greenway
The renderings below offer a glimpse into the realm we're building. While some details may change along the way, the vision remains the same: a place where great beer, good food, craft cocktails, coffee, live entertainment, and community come together.
The path is clear, now it's time to build.
Leave Your Map Behind.

Huge congrats to our friends over at 2nd Bridge Brewing Co. on the reopening and new partnership! 🍻
The 2nd Bridge crew has always been a big part of the local craft beer community, and they’ve long been the spot in town for soccer fans to gather over some cold ones. ⚽
Small independent breweries aren’t competitors, we’re neighbors, collaborators, regulars at each other’s places, and people all working toward making Manchester a more fun, welcoming, and community-driven place to spend time.
We can’t wait to stop in for a pint (or 3) and support our friends. ⚽ COYG ⚽ Congrats again! Cheers! 🍻

The Gang Goes to the Craft Brewers Conference 🍻
Recently, Josh, Sean, and Sal set out for Philly… and came back with full notebooks, lots of swag (Sal), full bellies, and a few blurry memories.
Between the presentations, next-level innovation, and conversations with some seriously talented people in this industry, we packed a lot into a few days.
Philly showed up big. The hospitality, the breweries, the bars, the food… and we did our best to thoroughly research all of it. Call it professional development. Call it research.
Somewhere between the sessions and the stops, we found a little time to slow down, share stories, take a breath, and remind ourselves why we’re doing all of this in the first place.
We’re back at the Realm with some fresh ideas, new connections, and renewed momentum as we push through the permits, paperwork, and the general grind.
Huge congratulations to our fellow Connecticut breweries who brought home hardware at the World Beer Cup, seriously impressive stuff!!!
🥇 Counter Weight Brewing Company — Voided (Oatmeal Stout)
🥈 Counter Weight Brewing Company — Drudenhaus (Smoke Beer)
🥇 Norbrook Farm Brewery — Doldrums of Winter (American-Style Imperial Stout)
🥉 Caius Farm Brewery — Balbilla (German-Style Kölsch)
From bold, world-class stouts to beautifully executed traditional styles, this is an incredible showing for our little state.
Cheers 🍻
Next up in our Test Cocktail Series - Ember of the Sun.
A golden, sparkling cocktail that feels like sunlight in a glass.
Bourbon brings the warmth, lemon keeps it bright, and a touch of honey smooths it all out. There’s a light hint of orange blossom, and prosecco lifts it just enough to keep things fresh and enchanting.
We’ve been tinkering in the workshop…
Testing, tasting, and summoning new ideas for when we open the Realm.
Introducing our Test Cocktail Series: An ongoing exploration of fresh, local ingredients and craft spirits we love.
First to emerge:
🐛The Garden Goblin
Featuring Eighth District Distilling Company, distilled right here in Manchester, CT
Bright. Herbal. A little wild, a little loud, yet still refreshing.
A perfect spring cocktail… assuming spring shows up and sticks around for more than a day.
More potions are on the way as we shape the cocktail program for opening day.
