Where is Blenheim

David — Mon, 12 May 2008 01:29:47 GMT

I fell in love with Blenheim when I lived in North Carolina. I now live in North Dakota. Has anyone know of any place in the midwest where I can buy Blenheim?

Blenheim factory not in production

Sage — Mon, 11 Dec 2006 04:59:28 GMT

From my site http://www.blenheimshrine.com:
"According to reports from retailers who have called Blenheim Bottlers and the webmaster's own phone call, Blenheim Ginger Ale has not been made in months! I was told a part on the old machinery has to be manufactured, and there is NO KNOWN TIMELINE for when production will be back up.
According to page 62 of this document, five jobs were created and $7 million invested in the company in 2000.
Someone needs to know how many Blenheim fans there are, and that they don't want to lose this super drink.
If you love Blenheim Ginger Ale, give them a call at 1-800-270-9344, and politely tell them how you feel about it. They need to know!"

Blenheim status

antsinthekitchen — Fri, 14 Oct 2005 19:19:43 GMT

I met someone from South Carolina, and they said the reason Blenheim doesn't have a web page is that, more often than not they are declaring bankruptcy or something, and that it's a poorly run family business, more of a tax write off or a money laundering scheme, and the only reason they are still around is their loyal customer base who is willing to pay exhorbitant prices for their goods.
If anyone know of a business that sells this stuff and can pay the freight rate, clue me in.

P.S. Haven't had any HOT ginger ale in over a year!

New Blenheim Fansite

Sage — Fri, 17 Feb 2006 05:12:07 GMT

Hey everybody,
I decided to make a fansite about the best soft drink in the world, and joined Tribe to let you guys be the FIRST to know about it!

It's called the Blenheim Shrine. Here's the link:
http://www.thepiratesrealm.com/Blenheim/Blenheim%20shrine.html

Rejoice, fellow Blenheads!
Sage

PS- Pass the word, and keep in touch with any ideas about what I could maybe add or whatever.

nectar of the gods

mmmmmmm, Blenheim....

I just had a Pangleheimer's, of which I bought a case as a substitution for the Good Stuff. I've heard they have had production problems *whimper*...

wish I could get a case of Blenheim. I'll have to try again. The other stuff, while good, is just NOT the same.

can't believe you Darius...

This is actually pretty funny for me because I remember you handing out this rocket fuel at Corks on a couple of occasions...
I knew you liked this stuff but ... wow

...a local distributor?

Dave — Fri, 02 Sep 2005 20:51:31 GMT

So I noticed Blenheim red at Fry's of all places (San Jose store, on a shelf by the checkout line area). There were some other "boutique" sodas in glass also, so I assume they all come from the same distributor. Did I ask at the time? No. My bad. Any clues as to who this distributor might be? I'll ask next time I'm in San Jose Fry's, but that may not be for a while.
I think it was $1.89 a bottle...
Thanks in advance!

Dave

I'm visiting the factory! need a picture?

brian — Thu, 24 Feb 2005 02:41:11 GMT

I don't live in SF (but I have friends there) but I was googling to find a cheaper supplier for myself, only to discover the Blenheim's factory is a 2hour drive from where I live ^_^. So soon i'm going to go visit the factory and buy several cases for myself. I can't believe the "south of the border" complex owns Blenheim....

Question is, need a picture of the factory or anything?

Yay! A case for only $17

antsinthekitchen — Mon, 05 Apr 2004 15:17:46 GMT

I've arranged a deal with a local merchant, he can order enough cases to get the freight rate and he passes the savings on to me!
This will be way cool, no broken bottles due to UPS's basketball team, $8+ less per case than ordering was previously.
I am in heaven!

P.S. My dentist will love this news…

Blenheim needs a web site

antsinthekitchen — Fri, 05 Dec 2003 05:48:50 GMT

Apparently there is no actual website dedicated or owned by Blenheim themselves, perhaps we could throw something up, like possibly a fansite type thing, or if someone has the gumption, actually contact Blenheim and see if they'd be interested in paying for one to be created.

UPS sucks big donkey dick!

antsinthekitchen — Fri, 05 Dec 2003 21:36:53 GMT

One of these days I'm goning to either have to knuckle under and purchase the full 10 cases to be eligible for freight rate, or try to convince some local vendor to carry Blenheim's locally.
So here's what happened, I ordered 5 cases last week, 4 for me, and one shipped to The Bayou, they got theirs OK, but one of my boxes was caved in and when I opened it, there were 5 broken bottles inside, this sucks! Do you think calling UPS would do any good?
