Note 4 - Income Taxes:

As  of  June 30, 1995, the Company had a net deferred income  tax
asset   of   approximately  $932,000,  consisting  primarily   of
approximately  $862,000 in net operating loss  carryforwards  and
other  deferred  accruals.  The net operating loss  carryforwards
are  subject  to  certain  annual utilization  limits.   The  net
deferred income tax asset was offset by a valuation allowance for
the  entire  amount  under the applicable  accounting  literature
provisions that, based on the weight of available evidence, it is
more  likely  than  not  that some portion  or  all  of  the  net
operating  loss  carryforwards will not be realized  before  they
expire.   This position is deemed appropriate given the Companys
lack  of  historical earnings and the fact that the  Company  has
operated as a proprietary brands business for only a short  time.
The  valuation  allowance associated with the Companys  deferred
income tax asset decreased from December 31, 1994 as a result  of
the  utilization  of net operating loss carryforwards  to  offset
current taxable income for the period ended June 30, 1995.

Note 5 - Events Subsequent to June 30, 1995

As  of  June 30, 1995, the Company owned 306,143 shares of  AMCON
Distributing Company (AMCON) common stock.  On July  31,  1995,
the  Company  distributed,  as a dividend  to  its  shareholders,
approximately 260,000 of these shares of AMCON common stock.

Item  2.   Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition And Results of Operations

Current Developments

The  Company  continued  to experience  growth  of  its  line  of
Stewart's brand soft drinks during the June 1995 quarter.   Also,
in May 1995, the Company introduced a new flavor to its Stewart's
line,  Stewart's Country Orange N' Cream.  The Company also began
selling  its new beverage brand, ASPEN EXTREME, during May  1995.
ASPEN  EXTREME is a non-carbonated, fruit-flavored beverage.   In
addition,  the  Company  started selling  ASPEN  Mountain  Spring
Water, a non-carbonated spring water in May 1995.

During   June  1995,  one  of  the  Company's  contract  bottlers
experienced  production problems which management  believes  will
result   in   the  return  of  merchandise  in  the   amount   of
approximately  $50,000  and the Company  has  reduced  sales  and
established a reserve for return merchandise in that amount as of
June  30,  1995.   Although  the  Company  anticipates  that  its
contract  bottler will absorb most of the costs incurred  by  the
Company related to said bottlers production problems, the Company
has nevertheless set up an additional contingency reserve against
inventory at June 30, 1995 in the amount of $30,000.

As  of  June 30, 1995,  the Company owned 306,143 shares of AMCON
Distributing Company (AMCON) common stock.  On July  31,  1995,
the  Company  distributed,  as a dividend  to  its  shareholders,
approximately 260,000 of these shares of AMCON common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's current ratio at June 30, 1995 was 2.56 as compared
to  4.06 at December 31, 1994.  Working capital at June 30,  1995
was  $2,278,590 as compared to $1,523,585 at December  31,  1994.
For  the  six-months  ended  June 30,  1995,  cash  decreased  by
$21,935.  The principal sources were the investing and  financing
activities, but such sources were more than offset by  cash  used
in operations.  A majority of the cash used in operations related
to  increases  in accounts receivable and inventories  offset  by
increases   in  accounts  payable  and  accrued  liabilities   of
$705,594.   Financing  activities  generated  cash  of  $369,808,
primarily from the net proceeds of stock issuances from exercised
options  and warrants.  Investing activities provided  a  net  of
$106,785  from short-term investments less costs associated  with
package designs.

The  Company intends to utilize cash from operations to meet  its
ongoing  obligations.  The Company has also  established  a  bank
line  of  credit in the amount of $500,000 which it  may  utilize
from  time to time to meet seasonal cash needs.  Management  does
not  expect  liquidity problems during 1995 assuming the  Company
can maintain or exceed its current sales volume and expenses as a
percentage of sales remain relatively constant.

As  of  June 30, 1995, the Company had a net deferred income  tax
asset   of   approximately  $932,000,  consisting  primarily   of
approximately  $862,000 in net operating loss  carryforwards  and
other deferred reserves.  This net deferred income tax asset  was
<PAGE>
offset  by a valuation allowance for the entire amount under  the
applicable  accounting literature provisions that, based  on  the
weight  of  available evidence, it is more likely than  not  that
some  portion or all of the net operating loss carryforwards will
not  be  realized  before they expire.  This position  is  deemed
appropriate  given the Company's lack of historical earnings  and
the  fact  that the Company has operated as a proprietary  brands
business   for  only  a  short  time.   The  valuation  allowance
associated with the Company's deferred income tax asset decreased
from  December  31,  1994 as a result of the utilization  of  net
operating loss carryforwards to offset current taxable income for
the period ended June 30, 1995.


Results of Operations

Comparison of the six-month periods ended June 30, 1995 and  June
30, 1994

The  Company had net income of $424,784 for the six-months  ended
June  30,  1995 versus net income of $301,336 for the  six-months
ended June 30, 1994.

Revenue from the sale of products increased to $5,336,322 in 1995
from $3,761,788 in 1994.   This increase of $1,597,534 or 42% was
due primarily to increased Stewart's case sales.

Cost  of goods sold increased $1,149,376 in the six-months  ended
June 30, 1995 versus 1994, and increased slightly as a percentage
of  sales  from 72.5% to 72.7%. The percentage increase  was  due
primarily to increased glass costs.

Selling  expense  increased  $164,002  from  1994  to  1995,  but
decreased slightly as a percentage of sales from 10.8% to  10.7%.
The  dollar increase was due primarily to the following  factors:
(1)   salary  and  relating  selling  expenses  associated   with
expanding  distribution and (2) expenses  incurred  in  1995  for
designing packaging and introducing the Company's new proprietary
products.

General and administrative expense increased $51,913 from 1994 to
1995,  but decreased as a percentage of sales from 8.3% to 6..8%.
The  percentage  decrease in general and administrative  expenses
was  primarily  attributable to a 43%  increase  in  sales  while
administrative  expense increased only 17%.  The dollar  increase
was  due  primarily  to the following factors:   (1)  salary  and
related expenses and (2) administrative expenses incurred in  the
development of the Company's new proprietary products.


Comparison  of the three-month periods ended June  30,  1995  and
June 30, 1994

The Company had net income of $322,001 for the three-months ended
June  30, 1995 versus net income of $259,081 for the three-months
ended June 30, 1994.

from  $2,516,681 in 1994.   This increase of $930,278 or 37%  was
due primarily to increased Stewart's case sales.
<PAGE>
Cost  of  goods sold increased $680,067 in the second quarter  of
1995 versus 1994, and increased slightly as a percentage of sales
from  72.2% to 72.4%.  The percentage increase was due  primarily
to increased glass costs.

Selling  expense  increased  $75,873  from  1994  to  1995,   but
decreased slightly as a percentage of sales from 10.3%  to  9.7%.
The  dollar increase was due primarily to the following  factors:
(1) salary and related selling expenses associated with expanding
distribution  and  (2) expenses incurred in  1995  for  designing
packaging and introducing the Company's new proprietary products.

General and administrative expense increased $45,045 from 1994 to
1995,  but decreased as a percentage of sales from 7.0% to  6.4%.
The  percentage  decrease in general and administrative  expenses
was  primarily  attributable to a 37%  increase  in  sales  while
administrative  expense increased only 26%. The  dollar  increase
was  due  primarily  to the following factors:   (1)  salary  and
related expenses and (2) administrative expenses incurred in  the
development of the Company's new proprietary products.
