#107 - Vikram and Vivek Nayar (Two Robbers Spirits Co)

Host Richie Tevlin and Co-Host Evan Blum talk with twin brothers Vivek and Vikram Nayar, co-founders of Two Robbers Spirits Co., the Philadelphia-born hard seltzer and canned cocktail brand. Since launching in 2019, they have grown Two Robbers into one of the Mid-Atlantic's leading ready-to-drink names, with tasting rooms in Fishtown and South Philadelphia. In 2025 it became a Proud Partner of the Philadelphia Eagles, its vodka sodas now poured at every Lincoln Financial Field event. https://tworobbers.com/ @two_robbers _____________________________________________ THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!: The Beer Accountant: https://www.paddymaccpa.com/brewerysolutions Patrick McDonald Email: pmcdonald@paddymaccpa.com 267-566-4077 - Licensed CPA Norris McLaughlin P.A. https://norrismclaughlin.com/ted-zeller Ted Zeller - Epi 91 Email: tzeller@norris-law.com (484) 765-2220 - Liquor Attorney Cascade Floors https://cascadefloors.com/ Chris Klein Email: chris@cascadefloors.com (541) 510-1080 _______________________________________ EPISODE NOTES: Breweries & Beverage Brands Anheuser-Busch - Eagles & Phillies beer partner; acquired Spike Seltzer Bon & Viv - Hard seltzer (what Spike Seltzer became) Core Seltzer Corona Seltzer Happy Coffee - Two Robbers' former nitro hard coffee line Michelob Ultra Seltzer Miller - Eagles beer co-partner nicethings Beverages - Epi 102 - Philly RTD Brand Omnipollo - Stockholm, Sweden Other Half Brewing - Brooklyn, NY Sonic Hard Seltzer Spike Seltzer - The "OG" hard seltzer, became Bon & Viv Stateside - Philadelphia vodka; parent of Surfside Surfside - Iced tea vodka RTD; Phillies & Flyers partner Truly Twisted Tea 2Moods - Epi 98 - Philly RTD Brand White Claw Mentioned People Chill Moody - Epi 102 - Founder of nicethings Beverages & We Golf Now Conor Baldwin - Vikram Nayar's Wharton classmate Johnny Mowat - Illustrator, Two Robbers can artwork, Scotland Josh Shapiro - Epi 43 - Governor of Pennsylvania Leanne Peck - Two Robbers Spirits Company team member Travis Scott - Rapper who launched a hard seltzer Other Mentions The Wharton School - Vikram's grad + undergrad NYU - Both brothers' undergrad Temple University - Evan's undergrad Two Robbers Fishtown - Flagship taproom (late 2022 / early 2023) Two Robbers Lodge - Second taproom, August 2024 (formerly Hawthorne's) Citizens Bank Park - Former malt-era Phillies partner Lincoln Financial Field (The Linc) - Eagles stadium, sells the 16 oz cans Wells Fargo Center - Top Dog Cocktails RTD PA Distillers Guild SB688 - Pennsylvania RTD legislation, fall 2024 Stone's Beverage - Epi 3 - Beer distributor & retail store Fishtown Beverage - Bottle shop; Two Robbers' biggest account Beer City - Bottle shop Pax Cafe - Cafe / bottle shop GoPuff - Del
