About Us

Our Story

Breweries start up for countless reasons, and grow in a myriad of ways. Ours sprung with a dream, our parallel love for beer and the cool air of the mountains of southern New Mexico as well as the notion that the fear of regret is greater than the fear of failure.

Lost Hiker Brewing Co. is a family business, built from the ground up over

Lost Hiker Brewing Co. is a family business, built from the ground up over many years of honing the craft of home brewing. From our humble first brewing setup and our first stout, what started as a hobby evolved into deep knowledge. Today we channel our spirit of adventure and wonder to craft our own recipes that reflect our dreams. Most importantly, our heart is in creating an experience, brewing great beer, and sharing with friends.

Early on as a couple and later as a family, we've always been drawn to the mountains. What we saw as a perfect place to spend our summers is now what we call home. We're delighted to be producing craft beer in the Ruidoso area and help create a culture that will boost the region as a destination, and we're thrilled to do what we love in the place we love.

Our commitment to quality and our loyalty to region drives us to never cut corners. We use the best ingredients and deliver a superior product for those who enjoy a fresh hand-crafted beer.

Let's all celebrate this journey together. On the slopes, golf course, on the trail. Remember: Life is short. Dream big or go home.

THE USUAL SUSPECTS

MIDNIGHT SQUIRREL

5.3% ABV

Malty and roasty, this sessionable stout is dark and tasty. Brewed with Marris Otter malt as the base with rolled oats added after one of these your inner squirrel will be out at midnight teasing all the neighborhood dogs. Great for campfires and pairs well with s'mores or a hearty steak dinner. Consider the possibility of a Midnight Squirrel float with your favorite vanilla ice cream.

RUIDOSO BLONDE

5.1% ABV

This balanced beer for the masses is brewed with Pilsen malt and mildly hopped to give it an easy drinking characteristic. Great for a warm summer day or relaxing after a day on the slopes. Pairs well with green chili cheeseburgers, spicy hot wings, as well as any other pub grub.

Mosaic S.M.a.S.H.

6.2% ABV

An American Pale ale. This beer is brewed with a single malt and a single variety of hops. The malt used is Maris Otter, a base grain that provides a little more character than the typical 2row pale malt. This beer was designed to showcase Mosaic hops. This hop has become very popular in the last few years as a versatile hop with a fruity floral character. Although this is a very hop forward beer it is not an IPA because it does not have the bitterness of an IPA.

Spinning Compass Amber

5.2% ABV

Malt forward beer featuring Munich Malt and crystal malts to give the beer a deep amber color and a strong malty flavor.

CONNECTIVITY IPA

6.2% ABV

Connectivity: The state or extent of being connected or interconnected. This modestly hopped India Pale Ale is designed to bring together lovers of all beer styles. Great for jam sessions and winding down after a day on the trails. Pairs well with pizza and fish caught in your local streams.

RYE KNOT?

5.3% ABV

Complex from the start. This Belgian pale ale features a Belgian yeast that produces fruity esters backed by a malty backbone and mild hop finish. This unique brew will satisfy when all other beers have left the palate wanting more. Great anytime or anywhere.

DAS HEFEN HIKER

5.2% ABV

A classic Bavarian style wheat ale. This is a yeast forward beer fermented with classic hefeweizen yeast. During fermentation this particular strain of yeast will produce banana and clove flavors. This beer leans more toward the banana flavor with hints of clove. White wheat malt and flaked wheat make up over half the grain used in this recipe. The hefeweizen yeast is a low flocculant yeast meaning that is stays in suspension in the beer and doesn’t completely fall out. This leaves the beer cloudy which is typical of the style.

COYOTE CALL

5.1% ABV

An American wheat ale. A refreshing wheat beer with much less of the yeast character than the hefeweizen. This is brewed with the exact same grains as the hefeweizen but with different hops and different yeast. A malt forward beer with more body than the blonde but in the same hop range at 18 IBU’s. This is an excellent for a customer who doesn’t like hops but is looking for something with a little more body than the Blonde. A great choice when sitting on a patio on a hot summer day.
