PROFILE |
 |
Beer by mail is Drinks' specialty. It is a holding company for online retailer Drinks.com (beer, wine, and spirits) and Hilltop Marketing (previously called Merchant Direct and Beer Across America), a beer of the month direct marketer with some 200,000 members. It contracts with Drinks America (which has warehouses in California, Florida, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York). Todd Holmes and chairman Louis Amoroso started Beer Across America in 1992; it emerged from bankruptcy in 1999. The duo has added other mail-order clubs, including Cigar Affair, International Wine Cellars, and Coffee Quest. Venture capital firm Crescent Gate owns about 30% of the company.
