Drizzle Kola champagne

Picked this up from Rocket Fizz and tried it last night. Wow that is awesome. Drizzle is made by the Moxie folks and seems pretty close to Inca Kola, but I like this one more. I could not describe the flavor and had Theresa try it. We decided that it is not about the flavor, but the after taste. It is like a light cream soda when you first drink it, then nothing while swallowing, and finishes with a very slight banana twang. Theresa said it was just like banana popsicles. Will make sure to get it again.

 Squamscot fruit bowl soda

Finally made it back to Rocket Fizz and they have a lot of new stuff in. I picked up two flavors of Squamscot sodas, half and half and fruit bowl. The half and half is similar to a squirt and is half grapefruit and half lemon. It was lightly flavored and decent. The fruit bowl was my favorite. It was not too sweet or strong in flavor, but it was delicious.

Article

Photo by Dana Ludvik Rocket Fizz Soda Pop and Candy Shop specializes in selling novelty (and nearly forgotten) candies and soda pop in every flavor. It is the kind of place you can visit on a cold, dreary October day, and leave with a little spring in your step.

Whether you’re young or old, it is often hard to resist the simple pleasures of sweets and soda. Add in a mixture of cheeky gag gifts, nostalgic pop music, and a colorful backdrop of vintage-inspired tin signs and you can’t help but feel downright giddy.

 fukola cola

Well the Rocket Fizz site is getting there. Damien said this was one of his favorite sodas ATM. It is a decent cola, but not as strong as others. It really lets the other cola flavors shine. I quite enjoyed it and think it is worth a try if you are willing.

EDIT: after a google I see it was an energy drink with all sorts of crap in it. At least I could not taste the energy stuff. meh….

 Doctor Dublin

Made my third trip to Rocket Fizz and picked up a 12 pack. Most of it was stuff Theresa likes, but a few things for me. The Doctor Dublin intrigued me because I was wondering which way they were going to go. I was guessing it would be a Dr Pepper clone, but held out hope that it would be like Moxie which I have never had, but know of its legendary status. My guess is it is kinda funky. Damien of Rocket Fizz says he has 20 cases of Moxie on order, but they are severely backed up and he does not know when it is going to show up.

Turns out it is a Dr Pepper clone and uses cane sugar of course. It was not all that strong flavored either. I found it to be quite good. Would recommend.

 Wapner root, Bawls, and love potion #69

Oh Judge Wapner, your root beer is….. well i don’t want to be judgmental…. but average. I mean it is good, but I think I will continue my quest for a killer one.

IMG_1168

Bawls is the best energy drink I have ever tasted. Hardly any nasty flavor and was close to a lemon lime soda. Refreshing as heck.

IMG_1169

Love Potion # 69 looks really awesome. Tastes like a rotten salad with garlic though. Blech….. What are you thinking making that? It is an energy soda and I dumped it after my first swig. nasty.

Running low on sodas to try from Rocket Fizz, need to head back.

I had to try these and found them down at Rocket Fizz. They were horrific. I did not crunch down on it, just let is rape my tongue for about 10 seconds. Blech……

 Kutztown Birch Beer

Like cracking the lid off heaven and sniffing. Birch is so close to root beer most peeps would never know a difference. Kutztown absolutely slays with this birch beer. So creamy and strong. There is yucca in it to help the head and man it is rich in flavor. My fave from Rocket Fizz so far.

 Dublin Dr Pepper, looks like orange tastes like grape, and Filberts blue raspberry

Made a second trip to Rocket Fizz yesterday and got 9 more sodas and some candy. Still working through the first batch of sodas, but nice to have a fridge packed with new stuff.

Dublin Dr Pepper comes in a cute little 8 ounce bottle and uses cane sugar. It is refreshing and pretty good. Did not compare with a regular one, but I liked it. Folks freaking out on the forum about it.

IMG_1105

yup looks like orange and tastes like grape.

IMG_1117

The filberts was pretty good, not overly sweet and had lots of flavor. Will try their others for sure.

 Rocket Fizz in LJS

LJS article

Mentions the message board tread and quotes me in the article. :)

Despite the fact that he’s only been open a few days and has done no advertising, he said word seems to be getting out.

Earlier this week, the store already had been mentioned on at least three local blogs or message boards, not including the Journal Star’s Biz Buzz, which reported the store’s opening Friday.

“I struggled to not buy every soda I craved and walked out with 15 bottles,” read one comment on Biz Buzz. “Damian is a really energetic and exciting guy. The joy in his eyes is like a kid in a candy store … ha.”

Star City Scene, a local music message board, had a few dozen posts about the store early this week, nearly every one gushing with praise.

A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed.
