You may have heard about the little brouhaha in our neighboring state of Maine around Fentimans Victorian Lemonade.

Well, turn-around IS fair play, and Fentimans responds on the front page of its website.

Well done! :-)

    Gee, that’s one problem I hadn’t heard about. I guess the cable networks are falling down on the job. Thanks for updating me….. please keep me posted as the situation develops.

    Advertising of this sort couldn’t be engineered, let alone bought! – Shame it illuminates The States to the mother country as a land of polarized viewpoints and profound idiocy… but in this regard I would have to agree. Funny the same vein of ignorance that sees this a problem lacks the foresight to see their peeve popularized many times over by their very hand.

    Fentimans do a mean tonic to go with your Gin & Titonic

    I like the Victorian Lemonade – my Dad loves their Dandelion and Burdock and their Ginger Beer! YUM!

    I’ve never heard of Fentimans – however, their response to the fatuous deserves a sampling of their products (but with the 0.3 – 0.5 % alcohol reinforced by a heavy shot of vodka). Where may one find Fentimans?

    The Fentimans US blog seems to suggest that I can find it at Whole Foods or Restoration Hardware.

    And there’s a Whole Foods in Bedford, MA.

    I’m going to check it out on my way home today. Stay tuned.
