Mike's Hard Lemonade Co.
Mike's Hard Lemonade Co. is a US-based manufacturer of alcopop beverages, also known as "malternative" or flavored malt beverages. It is named after its flagship and original product, Mike's Hard Lemonade, which is a mixture of beer and lemonade (with more alcohol content than most US beers).
The company was founded in 1999 by Anthony von Mandle. The company's headquarters moved from Lakewood, Colorado (Denver) to Seattle in 2005. One reason for the move was to be closer to its parent company Mark Anthony Group Inc. of Vancouver, B.C., Canada, a privately-owned manufacturer and distributer of wines and other alcoholic beverages.
The "Mike's" product line now includes the following brands:
- Mike's Hard Lemonade (5.2% alcohol)
- Mike's Hard Iced Tea
- Mike's Hard Lime
- Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonade
- Mike's Light (4% alcohol)
- Mike's Hard Berry
