Introducing Quimby’s Cola!

Published on December 14, 2021 0 Comments

Pow! We are proud to unveil this: A Quimby’s COLA! Get it here!

We’ve teamed up with our friends over at Marz Community Brewing Co, down in Bridgeport, for a small run of tasty cola with the label designed by Quimby’s Bookstore cartoonist in residence Caroline Cash. The label spoofs Chris Ware’s multi-headed mouse from our logo, fightin’ it out, putting multiple meanings to the word POP! When you’re done enjoying the soda, put the bottle on display in your curio cabinet next to your Quimby’s 2016 QuimBrew that astute Quimby’s fans may remember, also a Marz collab that exists only in delicious memory.

You know what’s even more awesome? While supplies last, the Quimby’s cola comes with a limited edition risograph print screenprinted by Caroline herself! The catch? You gotta buy it in the store (sorry, this is for local folks in the store, not web orders).

Don’t snooze on this soda — it’s a small run of soda, and we only got a few cases, so grab it while we still got it!
