Plano Bottling Company makes cane sugar Dr Pepper; it is available at convenience stores in Brenham and Bryan; most often in retro 20 oz. bottles. Don't know where else they distribute it.

Having said that, I still liked going to Dublin to get Dublin Dr Pepper....

I thought Dr. Pepper had sued the Dublin plant into shutting down.

The Dublin plant is still open, they just can't sell Dr Pepper.

I miss Pearl Beer.
It would work when ExLax wouldn't.
Jax had the same properties.

Pearl is still around, although brewed at Miller in Ft Worth, instead of San Antone.

JAX is long gone.

I think Dublin Dr Pepper is operating as Dublin Bottling Co.; making other types of cane sugar sodas, or at least they did last time through.

Grapette was great. Did Delaware Punch come in a can? I get it confused with Hawaiian Punch I think.

small Brewery for the upper peninsula --- BOSCH Beer , hasn't been sold for about 46 years . In Marquette we had our own little brewery called the Castle because of the way it was built , looked like a castle and had been there for a long time . This was long before this micro brewery craze that is going on all over the USA . No young kid beer drinker would drink it in the late 60s because everyone bought Pabst or Strohs because it was supposedly better . BOSCH Beer went outa business .
