We Miss You, Dennis. Throwback Moment

We’ve shared this one before, but it deserves another round—because Dennis isn’t just a photo, he’s part of the fabric of the Lost Coast. That smile, that fried chicken grip, that quiet way of making everyone feel like they belonged—yeah, we feel the absence. I ran into Dennis at the Summer Arts Fair and, yep, that same smile showed up like a warm hello. Hi Dennis—we still miss the heck outta you.

And hey—speaking of community wins: Gyppo Ale Mill got nominated for Best Fried Chicken in Humboldt County by the North Coast Journal. We’re the most remote brewery in California and somehow also your crispy, juicy, chicken-slinging underdogs.

Help us bring this one home—vote daily through June 30. For the chicken. For the coast. For Dennis.
