I have the Tangerine beer once in awhile and have never had that experience.

So in the 10+ years the project was in planning, no one, not once, informed Betty Chinn or trained her up on landlord- tenant laws? Even though they all knew …

Alleycat used to be my fave; I love a good amber.

The city had to take over the zoo foundation’s duties and now this too. I think it’s for the best but it’s telling about how nonprofits are often run around …

Holocaust survivors.

The pictures look pretty clean. Perhaps this will work out although Im sorry the Chinn Foundation bowed out. I understand why they had to do so, but it’s unfortunate that …

During a staff meeting, we all enjoyed the tangerine flavor, but the next morning everybody was talking about the explosive diarrhea.

You’re right that the county is not a municipality like Arcata, but when it comes to planning departments and Coastal Zones, it may be a distinction without a difference. I …

Actually this seems completely plausible to me. Just because someone has experience in transitional housing and feeding those less fortunate doesn’t mean they have a great understanding of real estate …

Oh we always have trumpsters to rely on. lol

That would ruin your job.

???…Oh, so she’s helping people because she makes money doing it? Hummm.

Which beers are we talking about?

Who remembers Everybody’s Furniture Mart that occupied the space just prior to Lost Coast Brewery?

Remember when founder Bob Smith brewed Steelhead as open fermentation? Very few breweries produce their beers in open fermentation which is a shame as most beers brewed this have more …

For what it is and where it is, Lost Coast is good quality. The Imperial Stout, for its value, is outstanding. Not even barrel aged and it holds up against …

Thanks for the link. I shall check it out next time I am in the Valley.

I always thought the placement of the restrooms directly behind the beer taps was weird, and it made me think of the old saying that “you only rent beer”.

Would that be Butte Creek Brewing Company in Chico?

I would argue that it has been consistent…ly bad. I like beer but I turn down a free LCB beer every time I’m offered one.

Im very skeptical that a restaurant in Eureka is keeping their internationally distributed beer brewing business afloat. If that were the case why would they be willing to sell it …

I am just always astounded about loco posters. You should be happy she’s quitting and smile as you scroll by, but nooo (not just you)

I’m not a huge microbrew connoisseur, but I think the time they started was very different from today. The historical context matters and I think they certainly accomplished a lot …

Knowing her, she probably got greedy and decided to go cheap on ingredients while coasting on the brand.

How much did Betty Chinn pocket for getting the site up and running? It seems strange that someone who has been active in advocacy and has access to all kinds …

Apricot wheat

Right, but neither of them have large swaths of developable land, and if they do, it should probably be used for housing.

A similar thing happened to me but with Steelhead and a “soapy” taste. To be fair, I haven’t tried it since new ownership took over Mad River Brewing a couple …

The quality of the beer has been inconsistent the past couple of decades.
