Born and raised in Villa Rica, Seb fell in love with beer (especially Terrapin brews) at the University of Georgia before pursuing further education at BrewLab in the UK. He returned to the US and got his start at Wild Heaven in Decatur prior to honing his craft at Reformation Brewery in Canton and Woodstock and then joining Terrapin at Truist Park.

Spike Buckowski and partner John Cochran met in 1998 while working at Atlanta Brewing Company, launching Terrapin in 2002. Soon after, Terrapin earned a gold medal at the 2002 Great American Beer Festival when its rye pale ale beat out 92 other beers as the country’s best American pale ale. More than 20 years later, the brewery is going strong, with distribution in 16 states and Puerto Rico. Spike is a graduate of the American Brewers Guild and a self-described Deadhead, having named the brewery after his favorite Grateful Dead album, Terrapin Station.
