For four years now, Maine Root’s organically sweetened sodas have been thrilling fans from New England to Texas. This all started when younger brother Matt , a boat builder and former fishing guide, was helping a friend, Bobby Morgan, build the oven at Flatbread Pizza Company in Portland, Maine. Finding the restaurant’s current root beer less than palate pleasing, he brewed his own. Praises and orders flowed and soon brother Mark quit his software sales job to expand their distribution. Today, Maine Root is flying off the shelves of Wild Oats, Roundy’s, Lois’s Natural Marketplace, Whole Foods, Central Market, Hannaford Brothers’ and other fine grocery stores nationwide.
