About Us
Over the last 7+ years together we've made a lot of memories. Here are some of the highlights.
- After meeting in Seattle in 2016, Ryan dragged Nikki and Barley to the "big city". We lived in Brooklyn, NY for six years and made lots of friends (some of which you'll meet at our wedding).
- Ryan launched Beta Acid in 2019 and Nikki joined the company as COO in 2021. We now run the company together which is both a great and challenging experience!
- In 2020, we hopped on the Pandemic Puppy bandwagon and added a new dog to our pack, Hops.
- We got engaged in Florence, Italy on February 9, 2022.
- We bought a new home in Barcelona in the summer of 2022.
- In 2022 and 2023 we split our time between Barcelona and London, and spent a lot of time road tripping through France and Italy.
- We've traveled all over the world, including places like Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, New Delhi, Bali, London, Mexico City, Oaxaca, Bogota, Cartegena, Athens, Mykonos, Santorini, Istanbul, Cappadocia, Edinburgh, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, St. John, Florence, Rome, Milan, Paris, San Sebastian, Seoul, Johannesburg, Madrid, Seville, Granada, Amsterdam, Agra, Turin, and lots more.
- Although beer has been a big part of our lives, we have a growing appreciation for wine and have visited wine regions like Rioja, Priorat, Champagne, Burgundy, Tuscany, Bolgheri, Santorini, Piedmont, Finger Lakes, Sonoma, and Napa (we've also started a very respectable wine collection!)
