About Lost Generation Brewing Company

From Lost Generation's own website and its Google listing, read September 30, 2026.

Lost Generation Brewing Company is a brewery on S Street NE in Washington. Its website says it fills a 120-year-old former Nabisco factory. The bar is made from the building's original floor boards.

The name points to the writers and artists of the 1920s and 30s. The taproom plays on that with a speakeasy theme, which the website describes as the 1920s meeting the 2020s. Cathedral ceilings, brick and wooden posts frame the room, and a jazz meets hip-hop mural covers the wall opposite the bar.

Dogs are welcome at any table if they are well behaved and leashed. There is an outdoor patio right in front of the brewery, with first come, first served seating. Guests can bring their own food, and a food truck calendar on the website lists the lineup.

The taproom has 2500 square feet of flexible space. The brewery takes large parties and private events, including full buyouts on days it is normally closed.
