Where Is Fizzics From Shark Tank Today?
The compartment can hold anything up to a 64-ounce growler. Make sure the feed tube is inserted into the liquid and close the lid. Then, pull the tap handle forward, and the pressure alters the feel of the liquid as it is dispensed into a glass.

Although they had already made $3.2 million in sales prior to their "Shark Tank" appearance, the founders sought an investment to further their business.
They wanted more exposure for the product
Herjavec countered the others, offering $800,000 in exchange for 10%, and said he would extend his deal to Greiner to join as well. The founders came back with a counteroffer for Herjavec and Greiner for a $2 million investment for 16%. Herjavec and Greiner agreed, and the four of them struck a deal.
The company took a hit, but sales are up again
After the show aired in 2016, Fizzics hit a bit of a rough patch. Philip Petracca left the company in 2017 to start his own brewery, according to APP., though he maintained an ownership stake in the company, and sales were going well at the time of his departure. In 2019, Fizzics Group LLC filed for bankruptcy reorganization. The company was able to recover, and in 2020, it completed a debt restructuring and reorganization plan (per PR Newswire).
Today, Fizzics is selling its third-generation product, the DraftPour portable home beer dispenser. The DraftPour, as well as the original Fizzics system, can be purchased from the Fizzics online store or through Amazon.
It's unclear if the Sharks still have any involvement in the company — Blue Water Ventures Two LLC, which is owned by Greiner, reportedly wanted $75,775 of commissions from Fizzics back in 2019, which Fizzics disputed when it filed for bankruptcy (via APP.). However, the company still broadcasts that the product is "As Seen on Shark Tank," on its homepage.
