A Brewmaster, His Son, and an Energy Drink That Actually Makes Sense
Drink O'Clock
A guy walks into a hospital gift shop at 2 a.m. while his wife is in labor, reaches for an energy drink, and realizes every option on the shelf was made for a teenager. That moment sparked Mocean Energy.
This week I sit down with Tony Vieira, a brewmaster who spent 36 years at Anheuser-Busch, Coors, and Mark Anthony Brewing, where he helped develop White Claw. Tony breaks down the science of hangovers, what it was like building million-square-foot breweries during COVID to meet White Claw demand, and why he and his son Christian walked away from corporate life to build a clean energy drink rooted in Eastern medicine and his Filipino mother's home remedies.
