America’s first spiked seltzer was created by Nick Shields: Nick’s great-great-grandfather, Rudolph Haffenreffer, founded Boston’s Haffenreffer Brewery in 1870. As a 5th-generation brewer, Nick always knew he would eventually return to the family business of brewing. His goal? To create a new kind of beverage by combining disciplines of brewing, winemaking, and natural flavors. After refining nearly 100 batches, SpikedSeltzer was born.
Dave Holmes: After several years in the financial industry in New York, Dave decided to venture in search of opportunities to build businesses from the ground up. Dave has followed the evolution of his long-time friend’s creation since the very first batch. He jumped at the opportunity to help take SpikedSeltzer to market.
