NPOV

edit

The second paragraph of this article doesn't even come close to a NPOV. Someone please correct it. Adding his wife's name would be a good start. - November 23rd, 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.233.244.255 (talk) 05:47, 23 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Is the paragraph in question even remotely relevant (or verified) anyhow? This is about a root beer company, not the Shucart family history... --rsgdodge (talk) 20:52, 26 November 2007 (UTC)Reply


Does anyone know the fate of IBC Berries 'n' Cream Soda? My dad and I purchased a couple of six packs from a Wal Mart a few years ago (probably in Colorado Springs) and I haven't seen it since. It was this awesome indigo color and tasted like blueberry ice cream. Was it one of those temporary test market things, or just discontinued? Anyway, I've got an empty bottle complete with cap on my windowsill for proof of its existence. Sigh.

I think I saw some of that yesterday in 2 liters. Walmart just eliminates items based on popularity, not quality. Try some local or independent store and you may be able to find at least some kind of fruit and cream soda, they seem like something of a trend in sodas. Whitebox 19:06, 13 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

MOTT's

edit

I believe ownership of IBC has changed from Cadburry Schwepps to MOTT's (Apple Sauce, Juice, etc). Just look on the side of any new IBC packages. It says:

MOTT'S INC RYE BROOK, NY.

--- According to the Wiki Mott's article, Mott's is a division of Cadbury Schweppes, so this looks like just an internal restructuring. Ericbalkan (talk) 18:05, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

I agree with first poster, packaging lists by MOTT'S LLP, and trademark owned by Dr Pepper/7 Up. This is consistent with Mott's article, but should be mentioned even if it is a restructuring of the actual bottling company under the MOTT'S controllership. Furthermore Cadburry Schweppes divested MOTT'S according to the MOTT'S article -- but without attribution. This needs to be sorted out as present article is in conflict with MOTT'S article no matter what is correct. See [[1]] though not a proper reference, does list MOTT'S LLP as actual manufacturer (not the distributer which is further up the Dr. Pepper/Seven-up food chain).

Original recipe/Carl's Drive In

edit

I've read some unsourced rumors that the original independent St. Louis IBC recipe was sold to the diner Carl's Drive-In in St. Louis, and that Dr. Pepper/7-Up Company sent flavor analysts to Carl's to basically reverse-engineer the flavor of their ("IBC"-labeled) root beer into the current nationally distributed IBC. Could anyone substantiate/find sources on this?--69.150.176.111 (talk) 06:26, 12 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Citation needed for reformulation

edit

The article mentions a 2016 reformulation of the product. While I can confirm the product change (the new IBC is revolting), this bit of information should be sourced. 2601:3CA:204:F860:2D4F:4D6B:BAC1:CE19 (talk) 17:52, 3 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
