Founded in 2019, Forgotten Star Brewing was forged from a building rich with history and defined by excellence and efficiency. From 1929 to 1941, the Northern Pump Company occupied the building as a manufacturer of water pumps. Within months of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Northern Pump Company shifted its operations to naval production for the war effort.
The facility quickly became one of the most efficient and excellent WWII manufacturers, earning a military award for "Excellence in Production", which is represented by the "E" on the north stack. If a facility maintained excellence in production for six months, an accompanying star would be awarded alongside the "E". Six stars accompanied with an E, means the facility was awarded seven times throughout WWII for its excellence in production.
In 2022, Forgotten Star Brewing Co. won two Craft Beer Marketing Awards – a global and a national – for "Coolest Taproom or Beer Garden."
