Ep. 107: Fred Forsley - Sea Dog Brewery & more
Manage episode 485089638 series 1521837
Fred Forsley’s entrepreneurial reach is as wide as it is unexpected—real estate broker at 18, founder of Shipyard and Sea Dog Brewing, maker of alt-THC beverages, vodka, rums, and even a mushroom energy drink. In this episode of SPX, Forsley shares his journey from hustling real estate in Maine to building a beverage empire that spans coastlines and categories. He talks frankly about seizing opportunity—even when it comes wrapped in bankrupt breweries or building code nightmares—and the lessons he’s learned from four decades in business. Forsley also reflects on St. Pete’s collaborative spirit, his new podcast Beers with Fred, and what’s coming next in the ever-shifting alcohol and beverage industry.
