Cape Cod'r
OperatingCape Cod'r Inc.
Food & Beverage · Arlington, VA
Cape Cod’r is a craft cocktail brand inspired by the essence of Cape Cod, offering lightly carbonated, refreshing drinks that capture the nostalgic feeling of summers on the Cape. Founded in Dennis Port, MA, each drink is made with just three simple ingredients, 100 calories, 4.5% ABV, and is gluten-free, providing a “crushable” and sessionable cocktail experience. Cape Cod’r stands out in an oversaturated market of overly carbonated and synthetic-tasting beverages with its lightly carbonated, balanced flavors, and coastal lifestyle branding. With over 600,000 cans sold, distribution in three states, and partnerships with major brands, Cape Cod’r is growing as a favorite ready-to-drink cocktail in New England.
Financials
FY2022–FY2025 · from SEC filings · hover any figure for its sourceFigures as reported by the issuer in the filing shown on hover. Each year’s pill shows the assurance level of its filed statements — audited, reviewed (CPA review, less than an audit), or unaudited, as the filing’s own report or certification states it. A dashed pill marked * is inferred instead: the SEC minimum for an offering that size, which the issuer may have exceeded. No pill means we couldn’t tell. Headcount is the filing’s point-in-time count, not a year-end average. Manually corrected figures are marked “Corrected”.

From the company's SEC filings: share counts per class, each class's voting and conversion terms, and the holders of 20% or more that Form C requires (officers and 10%+ holders on Form 1-A). Filings name only large holders, so most owners — including crowd investors — are not listed, and a holder's percentage may be of its own class rather than of the whole company. Prices and crowd share counts are in today's share terms — adjusted for splits and conversions since they were sold. Hover a figure for its filing.

While drinking his first Cape Codder cocktail with his Grandpa “Ampa'' watching the sunset on the deck of his Dennis Port home, Kevin wished he could bottle up that feeling. So he did… in a can. Embodying the “work hard, play hard” mantra, Kevin spent 8 years climbing the proverbial corporate ladder, all while continuing to create special memories with his family each summer on Cape Cod. Knowing how special the Cape is to so many, Kevin created Cape Cod’r so you can find your Cape feeling, no matter where you are.
Goes to Chatham Bars Inn once, and thinks he’s a Cape Cod regular. But hey - can you blame him? Look, the guy knows how to bring the good times and good vibes. It only made sense for him to team up with Craft Cocktail Hall of Famer, Kevin O'Leary. He joined his brother-in-law in 2020, bringing his background in finance and management consulting to help the Cape Cod’r crew. When he’s not cracking open a Cod’r, Will is most likely out getting wrecked by a wave or testing out the latest and greatest bucket hat technology on the beach or golf course.
Firmly believing that golden hour is the most important hour, Taylor joined the Cod’r crew to ensure that all Cape Codders - from tourists and weekend warriors to summer kids and year-rounders - have the perfect beverage to enjoy with family and friends. With over a decade of experience as a sales and distribution executive with some of the world’s leading consumer packaged goods brands, he knows how to deliver a wicked product to the people. Oh, and don’t be mistaken: September is still summer, so catch Taylor swimming, sailing, and fishing for stripers out on the Cape well after Labor Day Weekend.

About this data. Figures are compiled from public sources — SEC EDGAR filings (Form C, C-AR, 1-A, 1-K) and funding-platform pages — and may be delayed, incomplete, or restated by the issuer. Financial statements are as reported by the issuer; each year is labeled with its assurance level (audited / reviewed / unaudited). A valuation cap is the conversion ceiling of a SAFE or convertible note, not an agreed company valuation; post-money figures are computed as pre-money plus amount raised and are not a traded price. Crowdonomics is not a broker-dealer, funding portal, or investment adviser; nothing here is investment advice or an offer to sell securities. Verify all figures against the linked EDGAR filings.
