MYRTLE BEACH, S.C., March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Mingo Bay Beverages, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MGBA) went effective and began trading on the OTCBB. Larry Moses, president of MGBA, stated, "I want to thank all the investors for having the patience and thus allowing Mingo Bay to mature into a publicly traded company." Mingo Bay Beverages, Inc. was formed in South Carolina on June 26, 1992 as its predecessor, Brumo Products, Inc. Mingo Bay Beverages, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on January 18, 1996. Pursuant to the "Agreement and Plan of Reorganization" signed and executed on January 31, 1996, Mingo Bay acquired the assets of Brumo Products. Mingo Bay Beverages, Inc. was organized to develop, manufacture, market and distribute natural spring bottled water, high quality liquid concentrated ice teas, fruit and vegetable juices, and isotonic sport drinks. MGBA has developed a premium line of liquid 100% Colombian coffee concentrates, "Misty Mountain" and "Mellow Mountain" decaf. Mingo Bay plans on rolling out this product in 1997 through the retail super markets sector. "Our shelf stable liquid coffee should really give us an edge," says Moses. "While there are frozen coffee products on the street, we feel that our new coffee is a much better product with a significant price advantage." MGBA is in the final stages of negotiations for the acquisition of a natural spring water bottling facility. "The closing of this acquisition will further enhance Mingo Bay as a full service beverage company and enhance shareholder value. Bottled water will continue to outpace all other beverages and continue to grow in retail and wholesale market consumption." Mingo Bay has begun the negotiations for the exclusive rights to market and or acquire a totally smokeless Bar-B-Q smoker. "Ice Tea and Lemonade go hand in hand with Bar-B-Q," says Moses. The smoker will be manufactured in both gas and electric models, enabling food service establishments and home owners to enjoy smoked foods prepared in their kitchens.

Forecasts 2 Year Revenues Of $3.7 million MYRTLE BEACH, S.C., April 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Mingo Bay Beverages, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MGBA) formally closed the acquisition of Springhouse Natural Spring Water from Stone Castle Properties. "It has taken us one year to put this deal together. This acquisition makes Mingo Bay a full service beverage company," said Larry Moses, president, Mingo Bay. According to Investors Business Daily (12/19/96), "U.S. per capita consumption has grown faster for bottled water than for any beverage segment over the past five years, soaring 25% to 11 gallons in 1995 from only 8.8 gallons in 1991, according to Beverage Marketing Corp. in New York." Springhouse is located just outside of Frankfort, Kentucky in Woodford County. This area is known for three things: Thoroughbred horses, Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey, and the quality of the spring water. Whiskey distillers migrated to Kentucky in the 1800s because of the quality of the water and the central location. Springhouse with its central location provides Mingo Bay direct access to a huge U.S. market. The spring which flows at a rate of 250,000 gallons per day, is located on 116 acres of Kentucky Blue Grass. Also part of the facility are warehouses, a bottling facility and the old train depot which is now the Old Taylor Museum. The property houses 1,000,000 square feet under roof. Mingo Bay's agreement with the Stone Castle Properties includes a 48,O00 square foot production facility as well as a 12,000 square foot office building. Mingo Bay has acquired a 99 year lease on both the water and the facilities. Included in the agreement is the existing bottling equipment, appraised by The Schrader Industrial Group, total value $285,425. This existing equipment, that Mingo Bay has now acquired, along with additional equipment can be used in setting up the plant for production. The Company said it expects to begin distribution as early as July. Mingo Bay plans to package the water products in a variety of sizes from 1/2 liter to 5 gallons under both the Mingo Bay and Springhouse labels, Moses said. He also points to a recent article he says was in the Dallas Morning News and reprinted in the Sun-Sentinel, which was headlined: "Hottest beverage on the market: Bottled water sales rise 26 percent in 6 years" and went on to say that "Americans drank 2.7 billion gallons of bottled water last year -- almost 60 percent more than 10 years ago." From 1997 through 1998, Mingo Bay expects bottled water to account for 25% of their revenue or $3,750,000. "We reach economies of scale in water at a very quick pace. This low overhead and fixed cost is due to the Springhouse acquisition," said president Larry Moses. "This will enable us to penetrate markets more rapidly, increase our bottom line to 28% net, and in the long run pass this value onto the shareholders." Mingo Bay has projected a yearly pre-tax profit of 4.95 million, .504 earnings per share, to be achieved over the next two full years of operation. This is generated in large part to the marketing efforts of the concentrated tea and fruit juice line, liquid coffee and bottled water in both the domestic and international markets.
