Producer’s Background:

Second Dawn Brewing Co. opened its doors in February 2023 in Aurora, Colorado, founded by Ross and Amy Koenigs. The name reflects both place and philosophy, Aurora meaning “dawn” in Latin, and “second dawn” symbolizing the moment when work ends, and enjoyment begins. Ross brings more than a decade of experience from New Belgium Brewing, where he played a key role in innovative projects including the Voodoo Ranger series, Hemperor, and Oakspire. Amy, a Colorado native, brings her creative background in graphic design and community-focused work to the brewery’s identity. Together, they’ve built a welcoming space rooted in quality, inclusivity, and neighborhood connection, offering thoughtfully crafted beers, seltzers, and dry drinks designed to bring people together.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve well chilled in a simple tumbler or over ice to emphasize its brightness and spice. Ideal for holiday parties, post-dinner sipping, or casual winter evenings, it pairs effortlessly with roasted nuts, cheese boards, glazed ham, spiced cookies, or cranberry-forward desserts. Enjoy on its own or as a festive alternative to heavier seasonal drinks.

Bright, cozy, and endlessly drinkable, Second Dawn Brewing Co.'s 'Room for Seconds' Holiday Seltzer delivers seasonal flavor with refreshing ease, proof that there’s always room for one more.
