Eureka Beer Icon Lost Coast Hits The Market As Founder Nears 80
One of Humboldt County's most recognizable beer brands is officially up for grabs. Barbara Groom, the longtime owner of Lost Coast Brewery in Eureka, has quietly put the company on the market as she prepares to retire and turn 80 this year.

For Northern California beer drinkers, the prospect of new ownership feels like the end of an era and the start of an uneasy new chapter.
