The stakes couldn’t be much higher for the United States Men’s National Team as they prepare to face Australia in their second Group D match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. If the Americans can secure all three points, they will clinch Group D and officially book their place in the Round of 32.
For soccer fans in the Philadelphia area looking for the perfect place to watch the match, Lost Time Brewing Company is hosting a World Cup watch party that combines great beer, Philadelphia history, and a passionate soccer atmosphere.
Located at 2145 N. Front Street in Philadelphia, Lost Time Brewing Company has quickly become one of the city’s most unique craft beer destinations. The brewery’s taproom is housed inside the iconic building that served as the exterior of Mighty Mick’s Gym in the original Rocky film and several of its sequels. The historic building has become a destination for both craft beer enthusiasts and movie fans, blending Philadelphia’s rich sports and cinematic history with a thriving local brewery experience.
The brewery’s philosophy centers around slowing down and enjoying the moment, making it the perfect place to gather with fellow soccer supporters for one of the biggest matches of the tournament. Lost Time offers a wide selection of craft beers, including its popular Mickey’s Lager, which will be featured in a special watch party promotion.
Watch Party Special:
- $6 Mickey’s Lager all night long
- Full taproom atmosphere
- World Cup action on the big screens
- A chance to cheer on the USMNT with fellow soccer fans
The United States opened Group D with an impressive victory over Paraguay and now has an opportunity to take complete control of the group. Australia enters the match after defeating Turkey, setting up a showdown between the two group leaders. A USMNT victory would secure first place in Group D and guarantee advancement to the knockout rounds.
Lost Time Brewing Company is also one of the competing members in the first inaugural Philly Pub Cup, a citywide celebration bringing together local bars, breweries, soccer supporters, and neighborhood pride. Lost Time will be hosting a Philly Pub Cup Quarterfinal on July 1 at 7:30 PM, giving fans another great reason to come out, support the brewery, and be part of Philly’s growing soccer culture.
Fans who want to support Lost Time Brewing beyond the watch party can also purchase an official Lost Time Brewing jersey. The brewery will receive 10% of the proceeds from every jersey sold, making it a great way to represent Lost Time while helping support one of Philly’s best soccer-friendly breweries.
Whether you’re a die-hard supporter of the Stars and Stripes, a Philadelphia sports fan looking to experience a piece of Rocky history, or simply someone who enjoys great beer and great soccer, Lost Time Brewing Company is the place to be for this massive World Cup clash.
