I love Bundaberg doesnt use plastic bottles. Glass bottle or aluminium can preserve the taste better and more environmentally friendly. Please keep using glass bottle !!!!!
glass yes def, aluminum cans are all coated on the inside with plastic these days and who wants to drink plastic that dissolves under the acidity of sugar and ginger? When al cans are recycled they are soaked in a chemical base to dissolve the plastic away then the chemical is discarded, where its discarded nobody knows. Dig a hole, down the drain? Hardly good for the environment.
Agree love Bundaberg and everything is better in a glass bottle. I was surprised to learn though that glass bottles actually have a greater environmental impact than plastic bottles! Silica mining, more energy required for production, harder to recycle into other things etc. There are a few Australian companies now selling wine in plastic bottles and the whole selling point is they're more environmentally friendly than glass. Cans are the best. Just a little FYI for anyone reading
Ages ago Bundaberg was exporting to South Korea. Being the Aussie that I am I had purchased a few of those and was driving down the street when a cop saw me and the brown bottle and pulled me over. I owe a lot to the person who translated their label into Korean.
On a similar note I recall walking to a bus depot in Adelaide drinking a Bundaberg® Ginger Beer to start a driving shift. I waved to each passing bus driver who must have thought that I was 'not all there' so to speak. No issue up in Rockhampton now...we are subject to a mandatory breath test everytime instead of randomly. Cheers 🍺 from Vietnam 👍
I love the original ginger flavor, I love the fact they keep using glass and not plastic, and now that I heard how they operate their business I respect them even more!
Personally responsible for developing and ranging the slimline Bundaberg Ginger Beer cans on all Qantas services (domestic and international) almost two decades ago, where it remains one of our most loved Aussie brands.
My dad worked for them i have fond memories of growing up and getting their Royal crown soft drink for my birthday and going to see the air show in Bundaberg once in the VIP tent. They treated my dad very well in his 20+ years of working there. They gave their employees ipods at one point i remember my dad coming home to show me his new ipod from work. When he finally quit to move on to other things in life he got a good send off and a watch. Lovely company and lovely employees and lovely drinks, my favourite is the Royal crown draft which is a weird one it's made there but it's not sold in Australia it's an export only product. I used to get them in boxes for my birthday. I believe they do sell it in Australia now but only in the barbell it's been a few years since i was in bundy so can't say for sure. Yeah all in all i have nothing but good experiences with them lovely company and lovely drinks :)
A friend popped a tab for me when I was at his place in 7-8 years ago. The root beer was frickkin delicious. At that time in Malaysia, they were only available at upscale supermarkets. Today, they are everywhere in the country. Thanks for covering the story behind the company.
I used to drive past them regularly back in the early 1970's. I never would have guessed at the time, that they would eventually sell in Brisbane, or Sydney, and these days all over the world.
As a Kiwi, I hesitate to give too much praise to you Aussies... but Bundaberg is a special exception, no other ginger beer I've ever had has been even remotely as good as the Bundaberg stuff, and the special spiced ginger beer is a family staple of ours during the holidays. And that's to say nothing of any of their other drinks, all of which I've had have been equally fantastic.
They are for sale here in The Netherlands. Love the grapefruit one. Interesting to see this video. When you buy and drink it you dont think about everything that comes with it.
Lived away from Australia for a decade and I've had one in Edinburgh, London, Amsterdam, Gdansk, Stuttgart... Always get a kick when I see them in store living in Europe
Ginger Beer and Sarsaparilla…the two best Bundaberg soft drinks ever!!! ❤ They have the best soft drinks in Qld. Most of the old small town Qld soft drink factories are gone now, only a few left…Bundaberg, Whitbreads, Wimmers are the 3 I know that still survive and are still keeping their formulas to the original. Tristrams is gone now and Kirks sadly sold out to Coca Cola Amatil and is now so damned generic…their old flavours are completely gone. 😢
Love this ginger beer is best love the blood orange. Thank God they bring it into Singapore. Been a stapple in my fridge for the 20 years I've lived here
Never knew or heard of it but they sell them in Ireland. Lovely glass bottles with a pull off cap. Now i live in Australia and I’ve visited. Great story as Bundaburg town itself hasn’t got the best reputation
Been hearing them shouted out in podcasts from around the world! Mango passion fruit is my favourite! They’re all the best version of their flavours though. B
I love Bundaberg, except I have problems getting the metal cap off! sometimes it's easy or not, I bought a drink and unable to pull ring and had to ask shop to open it for me. Bottle instructions says turn bottle up side down, it works sometimes but now I carry a bottle opener just in case!
Please explain me what is the label: "Energy 735kJ DI 8% per 375ml serve"? I thought 8% meant the percentage of alcohol, but everywhere I look it's described as "non-alcoholic drink", regardless it's probably the tastiest drink that I've ever drunk.
Its good to see them supporting the local economy. Maybe they can go a step further and support local indigenous communities. After all it is their land that gives them their success.
Fair point. I think Australia blissfully forgets what governments did to get access to all that land. The 1992 Mabo High Court decision is Australia’s reminder that the land was in fact stolen.

Glass is best. Aluminium no good, taints product.
@@David-ng2qg Aluminium cans have a plastic inline IIRC? Hopefully biodegradable plastic and not fossil fuel oil based.
@@ryan-ci9sl3mt3j i was going to say the same thing. Glass is not good. Cans are probably best but i must admit glass retains taste better.
The best ginger beer that I have ever tasted.
FAX!
Unfortunately they have changed it somehow it’s not the same as it used to be years ago . Still decent though I will admit
@@jimsta06 tastes watered down now, its missing that proper spicy ginger kick
Agreed. In my region I can't find them in tins only bottles. Tins are easier to carry around.
@@LazerspikeAgreed I know what you mean

@@J_Teriyakiyou put the little r 😂
The passionfruit one is the most refreshing thing in existence
Fantastic Aussie success story supporting local Aussies & giving back to Bundy! Good onya guys 👍 👍
Found Bundaberg ginger beer in Springfield Ohio this week, a sight for sore eyes for my expat kids!😊
Mate, Jungle Jim’s stock it. Every time I’m over in Cincy, I drop in.
be careful with your pets!
Huge respect for them to keep their business local 👍👍
It’s something special visiting a small family owned curry shop in regional Japan to find them serving Bunderberg Ginger Beer,
Here in New Zealand, Bundaberg Ginger Beer is my favourite go to drink. Every time.
Bundaberg has that extra ingredient that Schweppes tries ti imitate but doesn't even come close.
I'm a Kiwi and Bundaberg... Brooooo I love you Bundaberg 😘😘 Seriously my favourite Ginger Beer ever. 🔥
I love this brand drink. Honestly the best ginger beer on the market nd the tropical flavour is yum too.!
I love the original ginger flavor, I love the fact they keep using glass and not plastic, and now that I heard how they operate their business I respect them even more!
They are weirdly transparent and open about their business decisions
Non American 🎉
We get these in the supermarket in Kuala Lumpur. Love the ginger beer
Get the passionfruit one on a hot day. Heaven on earth
Really enjoyed that Bundy Drinks story. My fav is guava... Yummo
Here’s another thumbs up for the guava.
Hi from New Zealand. Dam good

Bundaberg Ginger Beer Rocks!!!! Many a hangover cure with Chips and Vinegar.69 model,drank it ALL my Life.Great Doco..Cheers!!!
Bundaberg Passionfruit & Guava flavour will always be my favourites such a treat!

Bundaberg is a good sparkling drink. It will thrive
I love sarsaparilla but Bundaberg sarsaparilla is my favourite
Ive always loved Bundaberg drinks, and now i love them more. very cool.
I used to drive past them regularly back in the early 1970's. I never would have guessed at the time, that they would eventually sell in Brisbane, or Sydney, and these days all over the world.
Oh man, I 😍 their Blood Orange one. But Ginger Beer is still the King.
I love this drink, keep up the good work lads
Bundaberg is my favourite brand of root beer. I'm from Singapore : )
nothing tastes better than bunderberg soda. The grapefruit one is so good
Had Bunderberg when growing up in NZ… what a great company.

I loved the Pineapple Flavour, but they now mix it with Coconut, 🥵
Do love the Passionfruit flavour & Traditional Lemonade😊
Passion fruit is my favourite
the lemonade one is the best by far!!!
My favourite ❤
Me too🎉
They are for sale here in The Netherlands. Love the grapefruit one. Interesting to see this video. When you buy and drink it you dont think about everything that comes with it.
We’ve bought these drinks in France.
We have this in Norway 🇳🇴
That’s awesome, how common is it to find?
Having my first Bundaberg Ginger Beer is a great memory. A+ Quality fizzy drink.
Lived away from Australia for a decade and I've had one in Edinburgh, London, Amsterdam, Gdansk, Stuttgart... Always get a kick when I see them in store living in Europe
Good success story .. good products.
I loved visiting this place!
"good thing that boat didn't go down"
HA! Good point.
Their portello is my fave! Lovely little brewery and tour as well 😊
Bunderberg is steeped in early aerated mineral waters ❤and theirs some very rare and early local makers of soft drinks 🎉
Bought a four-pack of the tropical mango today when shopping. It is insanely good.
I just wish someone would brew Horehound again.
THEY TASTE SO DAMN GOOD! 👍
Love the ginger beer ✌🏽
Keeping the production of the drink, and using local growers where possible, is a remarkable thing, keeping down "food miles".
It's the way ahead.
I love bundaberg beer when i was little my dad would get it for me, so it made me feel i was having a stubbie with my dad. Still love it.
Best drink ever!!
An Australia classic!

Bring back Horehound. Thankfully, we get Bundy drinks here in Thailand, a little taste of home.
I have been screaming this for years!
Well done Bundaberg Brewed Drinks (especially the Ginger Beer) :)
I remember watching a 'Tested' youtube video with Adam Savage. He reached of screen for a drink and it was Bundaburg Ginger Beer
Never knew or heard of it but they sell them in Ireland. Lovely glass bottles with a pull off cap. Now i live in Australia and I’ve visited. Great story as Bundaburg town itself hasn’t got the best reputation
Been a long time fan of their drinks. However was very disappointed when they canceled the brewed apple cider. That was my favourite.
I was amazed to find Bundaberg soft drinks in Oregon in 2018.
Do you export to Boston, Massachusetts, USA ?
Awsome, well done
I have seen Bundaberg ginger beer in both Thailand and Cambodia. A little piece of Australiana when traveling.
The best soft drinks hands down. The guava flavour is my favourite
Been hearing them shouted out in podcasts from around the world! Mango passion fruit is my favourite! They’re all the best version of their flavours though. B
I went on a Contiki trip in 2015 and was shocked to see it on multiple shelves of little grocery stores from the Czech Republic to Poland
The best drinks out there
Grew up there what a wonderful story about one of my favourite drinks!
Might just go buy one now, bloody hot 🔥 today!😆🇭🇲
I’ve been drinking the Ginger Beer for years after living in Brisbane from 1992 to 1996.
Great company , great drinks
Their Creaming soda is nectar from the gods ❤
my fave one is the passionfruit!! and the green bottle one (forgot the name)
Lemon lime and bitters
All their drinks are delicious
LURVE your products. Able to buy a few in South Africa........ wish I rather lived in Oz tho!
Why did they stop making apple cider?
I'm addicted to their ginger beer - I get one every day on the way to work
I recently saw Bundaberg drinks, when I was in Fiji 😃
Always loved the Bundaberg soft drinks. All flavours but the ginger is my favourite. So glad I can find it in the Philippines, a life saver!
Bottled in glass, no so microplastics and no cancer causing forever chemicals.
Proper Aussie business
Passion fruit is my favorite flavor 😊
I alays have my fridge full of Bunaberg Ginger Ale. Always. j.
real talk tho. Bundy cola needs to be a thing. could you imagine the colab with Bundy Rum?
They do collaborate. That's where the dark and stormy Bundy comes from. I think they have done a couple of others too.
I love Bundaberg, except I have problems getting the metal cap off! sometimes it's easy or not, I bought a drink and unable to pull ring and had to ask shop to open it for me. Bottle instructions says turn bottle up side down, it works sometimes but now I carry a bottle opener just in case!
Yes!
Love that these drinks are gluten free!
Great Drinks
Fantastic
There burgundy creaming soda is no joke the best creaming soda
They’re just yummy thats all. Ginger beers the hook.
They should bring back Horehound.
No Ginger beer can top a Bundy
the diet sarsaparilla is actually good for a low sugar drink
Please explain me what is the label: "Energy 735kJ DI 8% per 375ml serve"? I thought 8% meant the percentage of alcohol, but everywhere I look it's described as "non-alcoholic drink", regardless it's probably the tastiest drink that I've ever drunk.
DI = Daily intake. So 1 drink is worth 8% of the average adult calorie intake.
I was there a few weeks ago :)
Its good to see them supporting the local economy. Maybe they can go a step further and support local indigenous communities. After all it is their land that gives them their success.
Fair point. I think Australia blissfully forgets what governments did to get access to all that land. The 1992 Mabo High Court decision is Australia’s reminder that the land was in fact stolen.
That's what taxes should be for
Well said
Is it still legal to recycle used stubbies and make drinks to sell in them? Genius idea given the amount of bottles recycled Australia wide
Do halls next
I love Bundaberg pls send me some :D
Their ginger beer is the best by miles. So is the lemon lime bitters. My dad who loathes soft drinks will only drink Bundaberg drinks.
