FEMALE POWERED BRAND
Swilled Dog delivers award-winning hard ciders and small-batch whiskeys and bourbons crafted and distilled in the mountains of West Virginia. We may be rooted in the rugged hills of Appalachia, but, like you, we have wandering hearts. With that in mind, our canned ciders and ready-to-drink cocktails are packaged for every adventure—from the mountains to the beach. And, after a full day on the trail or in the surf, a dram of one of our premium spirits or a cocktail made from our infusions is the perfect closer.
Swilled Dog is proud to be a majority female- and family-owned company earning credibility in the male-dominated beverage industry. We are proud, also, to have brought together a primarily female powerhouse leadership team. Most of us are moms and dads, raising little ones, and we share an uncommon devotion to our four-legged best friends. One, in particular, Lucy Pickles our Border Collie brand sake.
Our story begins in 2015. See how we became the Swilled Dog you know and love today!
Since our founding in 2016, we’ve built a company culture based on enjoying the outdoors, bringing people together, and living life to the fullest. That’s why we say Swilled Dog is best served with adventure. But, we don’t just mean paddle boarding into the sunset. We mean working moms coming in hot on a Friday at five. We mean dads with squealing kids on their shoulders. Life’s an adventure; choose yours. And pour yourself some Swilled Dog along the way.
Sure, we’re a playful bunch, but we are dead serious about three things: Quality, Sustainability, and Community.

SUSTAINABILITY
We partner with local farmers to grow non-GMO corn and raise cider-specific apples in our own orchard. Our emphasis on hyper-local practices an respect for the terrior is reflected in the flavor profiles of our craft spirits and ciders
