How the Hell did this got into my feed......but Thank You! Brings back GREAT memories!!!

Glen Rock was another spring

that lime is impossible to find!

My kid just found a few of these in the woods in Antioch.

Found the bottles of these in the forest behind my house

What about Sasparilla? I remember that flavor as well.

I saw Mr. T driving north on Lewis ave. , while I was on the bus going home from High School

Why is the park so demonic

Glen Rock was the best. We used to walk our wagon full of the empty bottles down to the Gold Eagle Liquors in Libertyville that sold it to re-load for the weekend. The best part was you could build your own case. So everyone got to pick out their favorite flavors. So sad they went out of business. If they made this soda today, it would have some fancy label and be marketed as "small batch, locally made". But back then it was just Glen Rock Pop.

Growing up in Waukegan I drank this awesome stuff everyday!!!! Cream soda and root beer where my fav!!!!!!

Rumor has it he had a lady house in Waukegan as well

Omg! My sister used to live North Chicago. I could wait to spend the night at her place. The soda dispenser in the basement of her apartment was always filled with bottles of Glen Rock soda. I think they were like twenty-five cent. They were absolutely delicious!❤️😍

I'm from Waukegan. As a kid, I didn't think about it because Glen rock pop was a stable at any b-day party. Small bottles, parents let you drink like 6 of em

i grewup there in the 60s

where can i get the poster ?

what was the jewish mob called?

Shame they went out of business. I recall having it at some block party in the 1980's as a kid, and it was pretty dang good. I think they stuck around until the early 1990's, as I recalled being able to get some when I was in high school as well. But they closed up sometime after that.

Just found three cases in our basement - most still full. Stepdad owned Glen Rock and recently passed away. Will be selling these on eBay soon

I grew up in nearby Winthrop Harbor. Glen Rock soda was a staple of every kid's birthday party.

Very interesting - thanks for sharing your knowledge

Great job, Ty. I loved learning about all the famous folks visiting our beloved city. I know Phil Harris (Jack Benny's band leader and voice talent for many of Walt Disney's animated films) was here, and at my house as well. - there's a story. We own the house that belonged to Jack Benny's aunt Clara (Kubelsky) Gordon, and Jack stayed here when he came to Waukegan to visit, so I'm not just making this stuff up.

Definitely the crown jewel of Waukegan. Well-done, Ty!

How did Germany get rid of the Nazi symbol? We need to do that in our country with our Confederate flag, statues that glorify any horrible acts or ideals... that is not cancel culture it's evolving growing stamping out hate for our future children... obviously we we didn't stamp our Nazis enough last time...

I live across the street to Terry Philips the current owner, we had it a few times in the 1980's

My grandma always had a case or 2 of Glen Rock pop in the cooler in the basement.

I grew up in Waukegan & lived on North Butrick St, just a few blocks from Glen Rock. We always had the pop at our picnics & birthday parties.

Loved this short documentary and our family loved Glen Rock soda!

Wish my volume went up to 200, maybe then I could hear it.

A place in Seymour Wisconsin, just West of Green Bay, still makes the same soda from the same mix that Glen Rock used in the 60's. It's sold at Don's Quality Market in Seymour Wisconsin. Glen Rock Soda was not unique. Many other local bottlers used the same mixes but not many are left. Seymour Beverages is one of them. www.glassbottlesoda.org/bottlers/seymour.shtml

I remember.
