Kutztown Bottling Works

The company is one of Kutztown's oldest continuously operated businesses, founded in 1851. They produce craft sodas using original premium recipes from the turn of the century. Their products are made with pure cane sugar and contain no caffeine. The company was started by Ed Immel in 1851, later sold to Cyrus Rhode and his son John. In 2002, it became Kutztown Soda Works, and in 2007 was sold to Jeff and Dana Taylor who continue the tradition. They distribute their sodas in over 25 states from the Northeast to the West Coast.
