      Moxie is one of a handful Maine traditions that I enjoy. To me it's special, as my grandfather who grew up in Old Town, Maine introduced me to Moxie. Can't do it everyday, but every once in awhile I'll buy a sleeve!

    66 yr old soon to be 67 in August 2023 "I LOVE MOXIE"! My wife Debbie of 33 yrs 8/10/ 1985 - 5/10/2013 Cancer took her. She was a Pepsi drinker. We only went to 1 Moxie festival, got Moxie Jam. But alas, Moxie has to much sugar now a day's and I have been a type 2 diabetic for 7 yrs not due to Moxie. So if I have 1 can, it has to last a couple of weeks to finish 1 can. Who got me started on MOXIE one of My Aunt Shirley's whom lived on the highest level Hill in Gloucester, Massachusetts, She and her husband Bill had a place down along The Maine coast.

    I had my first taste of Moxie over 50 years ago . My father was a huge fan and would tell the story of how, back in the depression, his father would buy 1 bottle of Moxie for he and his 4 other brothers and it would last them all day.
    To this day I describe the aftertaste of Moxie like the taste of sucking on an old penny back when you were a kid.
