AMC's 'Lodge 49': A funny take on the world of cheap beer, easy camaraderie and promise of Alchemical mysteries

'Loge 49' is a light-hearted tale about a man named Dud who finds his footing on the doorsteps of a fratenal lodge after losing everything to his dad's passing.

If you are looking for a must watch this summer, look no further. AMC's 'Lodge 49' is set to make its debut this August. The light-hearted modern fable is set in Long Beach, California and follows a disarmingly optimistic local ex-surfer, Dud (Wyatt Russell), who’s drifting after the death of his father and collapse of the family business. Dud serendipitously finds himself on the doorstep of a rundown fraternal lodge, where a middle-aged plumbing salesman and 'Luminous Knight' of the order, Ernie ( Brent Jennings), welcomes him into a world of cheap beer, easy camaraderie and the promise of "Alchemical mysteries" that may — or may not — put Dud on the path to recover the idyllic life he’s lost.
