“If you take a certain pride in drinking Moxie, admittedly an acquired taste, and like to kid those who can’t man up and appreciate that bitter aftertaste, you’ll need to read Jim Baumer’s second book on the subject: Moxie: Maine in a Bottle. It’ll give you a lot of ammunition for those nonbelievers, and a ton of entertainment, taken preferably with a bottle or two of the brew.” --- George Smith, Georgesmith.com, 3/12/12

“Baumer has taken Maine’s adopted soft drink and turned its story into a fun tale of how a medicinal elixir created in 1885 became an iconic beverage.”-- Bill Bushnell, Kennebec Journal, 5/24/12
