Founded by Melissa Pulvermacher, a certified drinks industry professional and passionate beverage curator, DAME was born from a simple but often-overlooked idea: that canned cocktails and hard seltzers should taste as good as they look—and be made with ingredients you can actually feel good about.

 

In theory, it’s simple:
Source high-quality, local ingredients
Focus on flavour, balance, and integrity
Avoid the junk—no additives, no fake sweeteners, no shortcuts

 

So why are so many canned beverages either flat in flavour or full of the nasty stuff? At DAME, we do things differently.

We’re here to interrupt the ordinary by crafting ridiculously delicious drinks that are clean, bright, and full of real flavour—while staying true to our values:

​

• 100% Canadian Crafted

• All-Natural & Plant-Based

• Gluten-Free & Vegan

• Obsessively Local

• Female-Founded & Led

​

Whether you’re cracking open a DAME Hard Seltzer or pouring a DONNA Italian Spritz over ice with a fresh garnish, you can count on an elevated, refreshing experience—without compromise.

​

And while we’re redefining what canned beverages can be, we’re also fuelling education programs for women in the drinks industry, because great drinks should empower great futures.

​

You see, for us, it really is simple:
We make damn good beverages—so you can drink better.
