Soda for Grown-ups
OK, so I’ve been busy… cut me some slack! Here’s something to whet your whistle:
On a recent trip to San Francisco, I discovered the best soda ever — it’s called GuS. It’s slightly sweet, lightly flavored, and absolutely refreshing. I tried the Dry Meyer Lemon and was hooked… I couldn’t get enough! I can’t wait to try Dry Cranberry Lime.
One small problem, it’s not sold here in Oregon. The closest place listed on the GuS website is Whole Foods in Seattle. Hmm, I wonder if the store here can order it. Must find out.

Well, well, well. Mitch returns. Glad to see you back.
I've not tried GuS, but I am a lover of hand crafted gourmet sodas. “Micro Brews” if you will. One that I got hooked on in Houston, and just recently have seen around town, is Boylan's. They follow the cane sugar model and they have some great flavors. The best, if you can find it, and I haven't found it in Oregon yet, is Creamy Red Birch Beer. Man could I go for a cold one right now!
You can find their Cane Cola, Black Cherry, and a few others at Market of Choice. I'll check to see if they carry GuS. Often times the websites don't have accurate listings of who carries their sodas since there is usually a middle distributor. I'll check for GuS in a few other locales I frequent.
But for sure, next time I'm in Seattle I'll pick up a bottle for you! Peace out.
