Towne Club Soda Pop

[mznb1u]

Good news for the Michigan Mafia!

Intrastate Distributors Inc. in Detroit in the last year or so acquired the Towne Club Soda brand and they are now selling it in 16oz glass bottles--suggested retail 99cents which is a far cry from the $2.16 a case back in the day!  I saw some in a store in South Lyon the other day so I decided to do a bit of research today and contacted IDI to get the low down.  I am going to get some to see it it will vend from the USS 64.

Another interesting fact that I discovered on my call is that IDI recently acquired the Frostie Root Beer brand and they are marketing it locally in glass bottles.  I have seen that in my local Busch's supermarket along with Frostie Orange, Frostie Creme Soda and one other flavor.

Thought I would pass it along for what it's worth!

Here is a link to an old Towne Club Commercial.  Love the vintage cans of the other sodas shown in the commercial!
