Old West gets modern makeover with Dust Cutter lemonades

BROOMFIELD, Colo. — Newcomer Dust Cutter Beverage Co. is serving a throwback to the Old West with the launch of its new line of all-natural lemonades in Ball's 16-oz. Alumi-Tek bottles.

"In the Old West, after a long day on the dusty trail, freshly squeezed lemonade was just the thing to cut your thirst. On the Warm Springs Ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyo., our family served this refreshing lemonade to our guests and the 'Dust Cutter' was born," said Eric Green, founder of Dust Cutter Beverage Co. "We picked the Alumi-Tek bottle before we designed the logo or developed the flavors because it works well with our brand, which is a throwback to the Old West.We wanted to make the brand as authentic as possible, and serving our lemonades in a state-of-the art container that exemplifies the look of an old canteen was perfect for us."

Alumi-Tek bottles offer all the benefits of aluminum cans, in that they are portable, sustainable and chill quickly, said Robert M. Miles, SVP sales for Ball's metal beverage packaging division, Americas.

Dust Cutter Lemonades are available in three flavors: original lemonade, huckleberry lemonade and iced tea lemonade. Dust Cutter currently is in distribution in the Jackson Hole, Wyo., area. Dust Cutter also recently inked a deal with Carlson Distributing to distribute its lemonades in Utah and plans to expand further in the region.
