 Filed
 on April 11, 2025 and amended April 17, 2025

 Dear
Mr. Ecker:

 Pursuant
to Rule 460 and Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Reed's, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
hereby requests that the effective date of the above referenced Registration Statement be accelerated so that it will become effective
at 10:00 a.m., Eastern time, on Monday, April 21, 2025, or as soon thereafter as practicable.

 The
Company acknowledges that:

 ●
 should
 the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the
 filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

 ●
 the
 action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve
 the Company and its management from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and

 ●
 the
 Company may not assert staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission
 or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

 Very
truly yours,

 REED'S,
INC.,

Delaware corporation

Ladies
and Gentlemen:

This
letter sets forth the response of Reed’s, Inc. (the “Company” or “Reed’s”) to the comment contained
in your letter, dated May 28, 2021, relating to the above-referenced Form 10-K. The comment of the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Staff”) is set forth in bold text below, and the response of the Company is set forth in plain text immediately
following such comment.

10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020

Management’s
Discussion and Analysis

Results
of Operations - Year Ended December 31, 2020, page 34

    1.
    We
    note from your response to comment 1 that you consider gross sales to be a non- GAAP measure. You indicate gross sales is calculated
    by add backing promotional expense to net sales in the period the related revenue is recorded to arrive at the non- GAAP measure.
    Please be advised the presentation of a non-GAAP measure that substitutes individually tailored revenue recognition and measurement
    methods for those of GAAP is not appropriate and should not be presented. In this regard, please revise to remove your presentation
    of the non-GAAP measure, gross sales, from the filing. Refer to Question 100.04 of the SEC’s Division of Corporation Finance
    C&DIs on the use of non-GAAP measures.

 Response:

We
hereby revise our initial response set forth in our letter to the Staff dated May 20, 2021 to clarify that, after a detailed review of
the definition of non-GAAP financial measure and related guidance from the Staff, we concluded that “gross sales” as used
in the Form 10-K is a key performance indicator and metric and does not represent a non-GAAP financial measure as defined
in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K.

We
respectfully note that the Company materially complied with disclosure requirements prescribed by SEC Release No. 33-10751 for disclosure
of financial metrics that do not fall within the definition of non-GAAP financial measure in the MD&A of each of the 10-K and its
subsequent 10-Q filing.

Moving
forward, in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis item (“MD&A”) of future periodic filings with the SEC,
Reed’s proposes to replace the term “gross sales” with “gross billing” to comply with the metrics guidance
detailed in SEC Release No. 33-10751 and remove all statements that indicate the metric is a non-GAAP financial measure. Further, Reed’s
will continue to include required disclosure describing use of the metric, substantially as follows:

The
following discussion includes the use of gross billing, a key performance indicator and metric. Gross billing represents invoiced amounts
to distributors and retailers, excluding sales adjustments. Gross billing may include deductions from MSRP or “list price”,
where applicable, and excludes promotional costs of generating such sales. Management utilizes gross billing to monitor operating performance
of products and salespersons, which performance can be masked by the effect of promotional or other allowances. Management believes that
the presentation of gross billing provides a useful measure of Reed’s operating performance.

We
hope our response resolves the Staff’s comment. If you have any further questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact
the undersigned at 203-890-0557. We appreciate the Staff’s guidance and assistance in this matter.

    Sincerely,

    Reed’s,

and Gentlemen:

This
letter sets forth the responses of Reed’s, Inc. (the “Company”) to the comment contained in your letter, dated May
11, 2021, relating to the above-referenced Form 10-K. The comments of the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”)

1.
We note your presentation of gross sales less promotional and other allowances to arrive at net sales in your table of key statistics.
Footnote (A) on page 35 indicates the company’s use of gross sales allows for the evaluation of sales performance before the effect
of any promotional items and that the amount is not determined in accordance with GAAP. In this regard, please clarify for us if you
consider gross sales to be a metric, or non-GAAP measures as defined in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K and the basis for your conclusion.

Response

Regulation
S-K, Item 10(e), defines a non-GAAP financial measure as “a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial
performance, financial position or cash flows that:

(i)
Excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet or statement of cash
flows (or equivalent statements) of the issuer; or

(ii)
Includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable
measure so calculated and presented” (emphasis added).”

The
Company considers Gross Sales to be a key performance indicator in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). Gross Sales
is a non-GAAP measure. Gross Sales is calculated from the commonly understood GAAP amount, Net Sales, and adjusted to remove the reduction
(i.e. adds back) promotional expense in the period the related revenue is recorded, with the resulting performance amount labeled Gross
Sales.

201
Merritt 7, Norwalk CT 06851

We
define Gross Sales as the total sales for the Company unadjusted for costs related to generating those sales. Management utilizes gross
sales as an indicator of and to monitor operating performance of products and salespersons before the effect of any promotional or other
allowances, which are determined in accordance with GAAP, and can mask certain performance issues. We
believe that this non-GAAP measure provides useful supplemental information for our investors as it is an important indicator of the
Company’s performance. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measure, Gross Sales, to the GAAP measure, Net Sales, is presented
in Management’s Discussion and Analysis. We have added the following disclosure to our discussion of Gross Sales under the heading
“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2021, as filed on May 17, 2021. We will continue to add this disclosure, going forward, to our
annual and quarterly reports:

(A)
The Company considers Gross Sales to be a key performance indicator in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). Gross
Sales is a non-GAAP measure. We define Gross Sales as the total sales for the Company unadjusted for costs related to generating those
sales. Gross Sales is calculated from the commonly understood GAAP amount, Net Sales, and adjusted to remove the reduction (i.e. adds
back) promotional expense in the period the related revenue is recorded, with the resulting performance amount labeled Gross Sales. Management
utilizes gross sales as an indicator of and to monitor operating performance of products and salespersons before the effect of any promotional
or other allowances, which are determined in accordance with GAAP, and can mask certain performance issues. We believe that the presentation
of gross sales provides a useful measure of our operating performance. Additionally, gross sales may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures used by other companies, as gross sales have been defined by our internal reporting practices.

We
hope our response resolves the Staff’s comment. If you have any further questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact
the undersigned at 203 890 0557. We appreciate the Staff’s guidance and assistance in this matter.

of the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) are set forth in bold text below, and the

Cover
Page

1.
We note several statements that rights holders may not know the subscription price at the time of exercise, such as on the cover
page and on pages 4, 11, 40 and 53; however, you indicate that the subscription price will be disclosed. Please revise your disclosure
accordingly.

We
have revised the document to eliminate indication that we will be disclosing the subscription price.

Backstop
Commitment, page 45

2.
We note the substantial increase in share ownership by Raptor/ Harbor Reeds SPV LLC assuming full exercise of the backstop commitment
and exercise of its subscription rights. Please tell us your consideration of whether such issuances will constitute a change
of control.

Limitations
to Backstop Commitment / Shareholder Approval

The
backstop commitment will be reduced to the extent aggregate gross proceeds to Company from the exercise of rights by rights holders
exceed $8 million and also to the extent of Raptor’s participation in the rights offering as a rights holder.
Raptor may elect to increase the backstop commitment, however, Raptor’s investment is also limited to no greater than an
aggregate of $6 million shares of common stock and common stock equivalents and $8,000,00, pursuant to shareholder approval obtained
at our 2017 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting on September 29, 2017. At this meeting the shareholders also approved the potential
change of control represented by this transaction.

Appointment
of Directors

As
part of the backstop transaction, the Company
has agreed to appoint two persons designated by Raptor to our board of directors, subject to NYSE American approval. We have been
advised by NYSE American that the number of directors Raptor is allowed to designate will be based on the size of Raptor’s
investment and will be proportional to the amount of Raptor’s investment in this transaction.

NYSE
American Standards

The
NYSE American does not define change of control, and the exchange applies a subjective test on a case-by-case basis. Generally,
purchases of between 20% and 30% of the outstanding share capital may be deemed to be a change of control, depending on the specific
facts and circumstances applicable to the company. Due to the subjective nature of the test, conservative companies may obtain
shareholder approval when the transaction results in the transfer of a relatively small portion of company securities, especially
when that transfer comes with special voting rights or board representation. Counting is prospective and based on the total number
of shares that could be issued, as opposed to retrospective and based on the shares that were in fact issued. The NYSE American
also counts warrants toward the 20% threshold.

Percentage
Acquired/ Beneficial Ownership

Assuming
the minimum offering amount of $10.5 is raised from combined rights offering and backstop commitment and a subscription price
of $1.75, the backstop provider will acquire 3,428,571 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 857,142 shares of common
stock plus additional warrants to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock, following which the backstop provider would beneficially
own approximately 28.8% of our outstanding common stock and will have acquired, in this transaction shares of common stock and
right to acquire shares of common stock equal to 22.8% of the Company’s outstanding securities (measured post-transaction)
and 31.8% of the Company’s outstanding securities (measured pre-transaction, excluding all other securities issued in rights
offering).

Conclusion

A
change of control is likely to be triggered pursuant to NYSE American rules and Raptor may become the largest shareholder of the
Company. We will file a current report on Form 8-K in the event a change of control occurs.

Relationships and Related Transactions, page 84

Please disclose your related party transactions with Raptor/ Harbor Reeds SPV LLC in this section including, for example, the

to the Preliminary Proxy Statement. The comments of the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”)

Reed’s
Inc. is simultaneously submitting, via EDGAR, an amendment to the Proxy Statement incorporating the changes.

Preiminary
Schedule 14A

Please revise the cover page and form of proxy to clearly identify each as being preliminary. See Rule 14a-6(e)(1) of Regulation

We
have revised the cover page and form of proxy to include a header identifying each as being preliminary.

2.
Please consider including page numbers throughout your proxy statement.

We
have ensured all pages are numbered.

Letter

3.
We note your disclosure that Mr. Cargile has been recognized as a financial expert by the SEC. Please provide us support for the
disclosure. We are not aware that the Commission recognizes individuals as financial experts.

We
have deleted this incorrect statement- Mr. Cargile qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under applicable rules but
is not recognized as a financial expert by the SEC.

November 7, 2016

4.
Please revise the fifth bullet point on page 8 to set out each shareholder proposal separately.

We
have revised the fifth bullet point on page 8 to set out each shareholder proposal separately.

5.
Your disclosure indicates that you recently added Target, CVS and Stater Bros.

Disclosure
whether these additions resulted in your products being placed across the entire chain of each company’s stores or on a
portion of the chain.

We
have revised our disclosure to include the requested detail.

We note that the third proposal is set forth as “whether to approve, on an advisory basis” the executive compensation
(page 8). We also note at the bottom of page 8 that there is no required vote that would constitute approval of the proposal.
Please reconcile your disclosure here and, as necessary, throughout the proxy statement.

We
have clarified, throughout the document, that say-on-pay vote is advisory, and, therefore, not binding on us, our board of directors
or our compensation committee and that, notwithstanding the advisory nature of this vote, the resolution will be deemed approved
and passed on an advisory basis with the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting.

Proposal
1

9.

    Dear Mr.
Reynolds:

    Set forth
below are Reed’s, Inc.’s (the “Company” or “Reed’s”) responses to the
comments received from the staff (“Staff”) of the Securities and
Exchange Commission in the letter dated October 7, 2009.  References
in this letter to “we”,
“our” or “us” mean the Company or its
advisors, as the context may require.

    Please be
advised that, as reflected in the revised registration statement on Form S-3/A
filed in conjunction with this letter, we have reduced the number of shares of
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock underlying the rights offered from 300
shares to 225 shares and have reduced the corresponding offering amount from
$3,000,000 to $2,250,000.

    Exhibit 5.1 – Legality
Opinion

              1.

              We note your statement in the
      legality opinion of Qashu & Schoenthaler LLP that “we are not members
      of the bar of the State of Delaware, nor do we purport to be experts in
      the laws of the State of Delaware.”  It is inappropriate for
      counsel to qualify the legality opinion by indicating or implying that it
      is not qualified to opinion on the law of the relevant
      jurisdiction.  Revise to delete the noted
      statements.

    Response:  Counsel
has revised its legal opinion to delete the statements noted by the
Staff.

              2.

              We also note your statement
      that “the opinions expressed herein are based upon and limited to the
      General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended.” Please
      revise to indicate that you are opining upon Delaware corporate law
      including the statutory provision and regulations and all applicable
      judicial and regulatory decisions interpreting those
      laws.

    Response:  Counsel
has revised its legal opinion to include a statement that, “[a]s used herein,
the term “General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended” includes
the statutory provisions and regulations and also all applicable provisions of
the Delaware Constitution and reported judicial and regulatory decisions
interpreting these laws

    We hope
that the information contained in this letter satisfactorily addresses the
Staff’s comments.  Please do not hesitate to contact Ruba Qashu, Esq.,

RE:

Reed’s Inc.

Registration Statement on Form S-3/A

File No. 333-156908

Filed June 23, 2009

Dear Mr. Reynolds:

On behalf of Reed’s, Inc. (the “Company” or “Reed’s”), set forth below are the Company’s responses to the comments received from the staff (“Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission in the letter dated August 14,
2009.  References in this letter to “we”, “our”, or “us” mean the Company or its advisors, as the context may require.

General

1. We note your response to comments one and seven of our letter dated July 15, 2009, and we reissue comment them. Your registration statement still remains incomplete. Please
fill in all of the blanks throughout your registration statement and file your missing exhibits. Please note we need sufficient time to review these changes and exhibits prior to the effectiveness of your registration statement and may have further comments.

Response: We have filed all our missing exhibits.  We have revised our registration statement to include missing terms that have become known, particularly with regard to the common stock underlying the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.  Pursuant
to Rule 430 of the Securities Act of 1933, we have omitted information with regard to the offering date and delivery dates. In accordance with Rule 430, the securities are offered for cash, we have included the undertaking required by Reg. S-K, Item 512(i), and the omitted information shall be contained in a prospectus thereafter filed pursuant to Rule 424(b).

2.  Please provide us with a detailed analysis as to why you believe this transaction is eligible for registration on Form S-3 pursuant to General Instruction I.B.4. We may have further comment.

Response: We are taking our original position and relying on General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 for this rights offering.  General Instruction I.B.6 states as follows (emphasis added):

“Limited Primary Offerings by Certain Other Registrants. Securities to be offered for cash by or on behalf of a registrant; provided that:

(a) the aggregate market value of securities sold by or on behalf of the registrant pursuant to this Instruction I.B.6. during the period of 12 calendar months immediately prior to, and including, the sale is no more than one-third of the aggregate market value of
the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the registrant;

(b) the registrant is not a shell company (as defined in §230.405 of this chapter) and has not been a shell company for at least 12 calendar months previously and if it has been a shell company at any time previously, has filed current Form 10 information with the Commission at least 12 calendar months previously
reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company; and

(c) the registrant has at least one class of common equity securities listed and registered on a national securities exchange.”

(a) As of September 10, 2009, the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates was approximately $12,102,644, based on 9,215,693 shares of outstanding common stock, of which approximately 5,603,076 shares are held by non-affiliates, and a per share price of $2.16 based on the closing
sale price of our common stock on September 10, 2009.  One-third of the aggregate market value of voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the registrant to date is approximately $4,034,214. Reed’s is offering $3,000,000 of securities under this registration statement. (No exercise price is payable by holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to convert to common stock; therefore the registration of the underlying common stock does not increase the aggregate offering
price to be considered herein).  The aggregate market value of securities sold by or on behalf of Reed’s pursuant to Instruction I.B.6.during the period of 12 calendar months immediately prior to, and including, this sale will be no more than one-third of the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the registrant. Reed’s also has $1,500,000 registered under a shelf registration (Registration No. 333- 159298) pursuant
to General Instruction I.B.6. There have not been any take downs of securities with regard to this shelf registration.  Reed’s will not, during the period of 12 calendar months immediately prior to, and including, any sale under any registration statement in reliance on General Instruction I.B.6, sell more than one-third of the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common equity held by non-affiliates of the registrant.1

(b) Reed’s is not a shell company and has not been a shell company for at least 12 calendar months previously.

(c) Reed’s common stock is listed and registered on the NASDAQ Capital Market, a national securities exchange.

3.  Please revise footnote 4 in your fee table to clearly indicate that the indeterminate number of additional shares of common stock being registered is in accordance with Rule 416 to prevent dilution resulting
from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.

Response: We have revised footnote 4 in our fee table accordingly.

4.  We note your response to comment four of our letter dated July 15, 2009. Please revise your cover page to indicate the number of shares of common stock underlying the Series B Preferred that are being registered.

Response: We have revised our cover page accordingly.

The Rights Offering, page 41

5. We note your statement that “each record date stockholder is being issued one right for every share of our Series B Preferred owned on the record date.” Your cover page indicates that the company is distributing one right for every share of common stock
that you own on the record date. Please revise as appropriate.

Response: We have revised the error on page 41 to conform to the cover page accordingly.

Response: We have filed our amended periodic reports accordingly.

The numbers of the responses in this letter correspond to the numbers of the Staff’s comments as set forth in the Comment Letter.

Form S-3

1.

We note your response to comment 1 to provide the information to comply with Instruction 7 of Form S-3 regarding IB.6. We also note your statement that "as of the date hereof, we have not offered any securities pursuant to General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 during the prior 12 calendar month period that ends on and includes the date hereof." Please
revise to reflect the company's offering on Form S-3 333-156908 filed on 1/23/09, as amended.

We note your response to comment six of our letter dated June 5, 2009, and we reissue it. It is unclear why your material weaknesses with your lack of segregation of duties, backup systems, and documentation and review of your internal control would not also affect "the information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or
submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms." See Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Please revise or advise us in sufficient detail why your material weaknesses related to your internal control over financial reporting would not materially affect your disclosure controls and procedures.

Response:

We have amended our Item 9A. Controls and Procedures disclosure to indicate that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at December 31, 2008. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is our proposed amendment to our Item 9A. Control and Procedures.

In light of comment two above, please either amend your assessment of your disclosure controls and procedures for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 or advise us why it is not necessary.

Response:

We have indicated in our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that our controls continue to be ineffective.

We trust that the foregoing appropriately addresses the issues raised by your recent comment letter.

Thank you in advance for your prompt review and assistance.  If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned or our Special Counsel, Marcelle S. Balcombe or Gregory Sichenzia at Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP ((212) 930-9700).

EXHIBIT A

Item 9A.   Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s
rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported and our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized
or improper use, to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We identified certain matters that constitute material weakness (as defined under the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed on Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting below.

In light of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Despite material weaknesses in our
internal control over financial reporting, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, changes in shareholder’s equity and cash flows for the periods presented.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Our internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our internal control over financial reporting include those policies and procedures that:

·

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;

·

provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and our directors; and

·

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time. Our system contains self monitoring
mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.

Our CEO and CFO conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). A material weakness
is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Based upon that assessment, we have identified the following material weaknesses and have implemented the following remediation of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:

Insufficient disaster recovery or backup of core business functions

Inadequate backup or our critical data and software used by our business could cause loss of financial data and business interruptions, should a disaster occur.  We have implemented regular backup procedures for our data relating to our financial reporting, which include off-site storage.  We
are planning to also install a remote server running the software programs used for our financial reporting processes, so that we can quickly recover our backup data and use it at a remote location, in the event of a disaster.  We anticipate this additional measure to be completed in the next quarter.

Lack of segregation of duties

We have limited staff in our corporate offices and, as such, there is a lack of segregation of duties.  With the resignation of our Chief Financial Officer in April 2008, our Chief Executive Officer assumed the duties of both President and Chief Financial Officer.  Many functions, including purchasing,
accounts payable, bank reconciliations and month end closings, have not been adequately segregated.  In January 2009, we hired a Chief Financial Officer, adding to the management oversight of financial accounting processes.  We now have separate individuals performing purchasing, accounts payable processing, and bank reconciliations.  Our Chief Financial Officer supervises and reviews the month end closing process.  Our Chief Operating Officer oversees the cash disbursements.  Checks
are signed by the Chief Executive Officer.  At this time, we believe that we have established adequate segregation of duties to the extent possible with our small staff size.  The close supervision and oversight by management also mitigates the remaining weakness in internal controls resulting from a lack of segregation of duties.

Lack of documented and reviewed system of internal control

We have an internal control weakness due to the lack of a documented and reviewed system of internal controls.  We have determined that to perform the processes and remediate this internal control deficiency, we will either need to engage an internal control consultant or reassign existing personnel.  We
have started to enhance some of our key internal control systems surrounding inventory purchasing and control, and to document those changes; however, this process is on-going and the implementation of policies and procedures may take several quarters.

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by COSO.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

EXHIBIT B

Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures”
(as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”).  Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As of March 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over
financial reporting described in our Form 10-K at December 31, 2008.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. In our Form 10-K at December 31, 2008, we identified certain matters that constitute material weaknesses (as defined under the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in
our internal control over financial reporting as discussed on Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.  We are undergoing ongoing evaluation and improvements in our internal controls over financial reporting.  Regarding our identified weaknesses, we have performed the following remediation efforts:

Insufficient disaster recovery or backup of core business functions. We have installed a remote server running the software programs used for our financial reporting processes, so that we can quickly recover our backup data and use it
at a remote location, in the event of a disaster.

Lack of segregation of duties.   We now have separate individuals performing purchasing, accounts payable processing, and bank reconciliations.  Our Chief Financial Officer supervises and reviews the month end closing
process.  Our Chief Operating Officer oversees the cash disbursements.  Checks are signed by the Chief Executive Officer.  At this time, we believe that we have established adequate segregation of duties to the extent possible with our small staff size.

Lack of documented and reviewed system of internal control.  We have started to review and document our internal controls and we are also currently updating our risk assessment and preparing to test our systems.  This
process will continue over the next two quarters.

 There was no other change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9A.   Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of December 31, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under
the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s

Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported and our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized

We identified certain matters that constitute material weakness (as defined under the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed on Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting below.

In light of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Despite material weaknesses in our internal
control over financial reporting, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations, changes in shareholder’s equity and cash flows for the periods presented.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Our internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

3

Our internal control over financial reporting include those policies and procedures that:

·

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;

·

provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and our directors; and

·

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time. Our system contains self monitoring mechanisms,
and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.

Our CEO and CFO conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 based on the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). A material weakness
is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Based upon that assessment, we have identified the following material weaknesses and have implemented the following remediation of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:

Insufficient disaster recovery or backup of core business functions

Inadequate backup or our critical data and software used by our business could cause loss of financial data and business interruptions, should a disaster occur.  We have implemented regular backup procedures for our data relating to our financial reporting, which include off-site storage.  We are planning
to also install a remote server running the software programs used for our financial reporting processes, so that we can quickly recover our backup data and use it at a remote location, in the event of a disaster.  We anticipate this additional measure to be completed in the next quarter.

Lack of segregation of duties

We have limited staff in our corporate offices and, as such, there is a lack of segregation of duties.  With the resignation of our Chief Financial Officer in April 2008, our Chief Executive Officer assumed the duties of both President and Chief Financial Officer.  Many functions, including purchasing,
accounts payable, bank reconciliations and month end closings, have not been adequately segregated.  In January 2009, we hired a Chief Financial Officer, adding to the management oversight of financial accounting processes.  We now have separate individuals performing purchasing, accounts payable processing, and bank reconciliations.  Our Chief Financial Officer supervises and reviews the month end closing process.  Our Chief Operating Officer oversees the cash disbursements.  Checks
are signed by the Chief Executive Officer.  At this time, we believe that we have established adequate segregation of duties to the extent possible with our small staff size.  The close supervision and oversight by management also mitigates the remaining weakness in internal controls resulting from a lack of segregation of duties.

4

Lack of documented and reviewed system of internal control

We have an internal control weakness due to the lack of a documented and reviewed system of internal controls.  We have determined that to perform the processes and remediate this internal control deficiency, we will either need to engage an internal control consultant or reassign existing personnel.  We
have started to enhance some of our key internal control systems surrounding inventory purchasing and control, and to document those changes; however, this process is on-going and the implementation of policies and procedures may take several quarters.

As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by COSO.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as
defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”).  Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As of March 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over

2. We note your response to comment six of our letter dated June 5, 2009, and we reissue it.  It is unclear why your material weaknesses with your lack of segregation of duties, backup systems,  and documentation and review of your
internal control would not also affect “t he information required to be disclosed by
the issuer in the reports th at it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.”  See Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-
15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of  1934.  Please revise or advise us in
sufficient detail why your material wea knesses related to your  internal control
over financial reporting would not material ly affect your disclosure controls and
procedures.

    Dear Mr.
Reynolds:

    On behalf
of Reed’s, Inc.  (the “Company” or “Reed’s”), set forth below are the
Company’s responses to the comments received from the staff (“Staff”) of the
Securities and Exchange Commission in the letter dated May 28,
2009.  We previously filed responses to  comments 7-9
concerning the Company’s annual report on Form 10K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008, filed March 27, 2009 ( “2008 10K”).  We have
included responses to the Staff’s follow up comments with regards to the 2008
10K  which were included with the SEC’s letter dated June 5, 2009
concerning the Company’s shelf registration on Form S-3 (File No. 333-159298)
(June 5, 2009 Letter”). We have reproduced the Staff’s comments in bold type for
your convenience and have followed the comment with the Company’s
response.  References in this letter to “we”, “our”, or “us” mean the
Company or its advisors, as the context may require.

    General

    1.      We
reissue comment one of our letter dated February 22, 2009, as it appears your
registration statement remains incomplete with many blank spaces and missing
terms as to your subscription rights offering. Please revise to include the
missing terms as they become known.  Please be advised that we may
have additional comments given the amount of missing information.

    Response:
We have revised our registration statement to include missing terms that have
become known and will continue to do so.

    2.      Please
revise to provide the missing information to comply with Instruction 7 of Form
S-3 regarding I.B.6.

    Response:  We
have revised to include the missing information to comply with Instruction 7 of
Form S-3 regarding I.B.6.

    3.      Please
revise your registration statement in the appropriate places to clearly disclose
whether the shares of common stock underlying your Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock are unregistered securities and the consequences of their lack
of registration.  Also, please revise to include an appropriate
discussion of the dilutive effects caused upon conversion of the Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock.  We may have further
comment.

    Response:  The
shares of common stock underlying our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are
being registered hereunder.  We have revised our registration
statement to include appropriate discussion of the dilutive effects caused upon
conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as well.

    4.      Please
advise us of the basis for your belief that this offering is eligible to be
registered on Form S-3.  We may have further comment.

    Response:  Reed’s
satisfies the general requirements of eligibility to register securities under
Instruction I.A of Form S-3.  With regards to transactional
requirements, while Instruction I.B.4 provides for registration of rights
offerings, this offering is a rights offering to be followed by a public
offering and may be registered under Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3 as a limited
primary offering.  Reed’s satisfies the requirements of Instruction
I.B.6 as follows:  (i) The aggregate market value of securities sold
by or on behalf of Reed’s pursuant to Instruction I.B.6. during the period of 12
calendar months immediately prior to, and including, the sale will be no more
than one-third of the aggregate market value of the voting and non-voting common
equity held by non-affiliates of the registrant; (ii)  Reed’s is not a
shell company and has not been a shell company for at least 12 calendar months
previously and (iii)  Reed’s common stock is listed and registered on
the NASDAQ Capital Market.

    Capitalization

    5.      Your
presentation of the “pro forma as adjusted” column is
inappropriate.  See Rule 170 of the Securities Act of
1933.

    Response:  We
have removed the “pro forma as adjusted” column in accordance with Rule
170.

    6.      Please
file all missing exhibits with your next amendment,

    Response:  We
have included missing exhibits with this amendment.

      comment.

              Response:
      We intend to revise the disclosure in Item 9A to clearly differentiate
      between internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls
      and procedures. Please see our proposed revised Item 9A, attached hereto
      as Exhibit A.
      Subject to the Staff’s approval, we intend to file an amendment to the
      Company’s Form 10-K to include the revised Item
  9A.

                5.

                  We
      note your response to comment 3B (comment 8 in our May 28, 2009 letter).
      Please incorporate your response to comment 3B in an amendment to the Form
      10-K or tell us why you believe an amendment is not
      necessary.

              Response: We intend
      to file an amendment to the Company’s Form 10-K to provide expanded
      disclosure in Item 9A of the remediation efforts by the Company to address
      material weaknesses related to its internal control over financial
      reporting.

                  6.

                      We
      note your response to comment 3C (comment 9 in our May 28, 2009 letter),
      please provide us in greater detail the basis for your belief that your
      disclosure controls and procedures are effective in light of your
      conclusion that your internal control over financial reporting is not
      effective. Please clearly indicate why your material weaknesses related to
      your internal control over financial reporting would not materially affect
      your disclosure controls and procedures. We may have further
      comment.

              Our
      assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, as covered
      under Item 308T, resulted in the determination that we have several
      material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting,
      including deficiency in each of (i) in our disaster or backup of core
      business functions, (ii) our segregation of duties and (iii) our
      documented and reviewed system of internal
  control.

              Our
      disclosure controls and procedures include those components of internal
      control over financial reporting that provide reasonable assurances that
      transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
      statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
      principles.  However, our disclosure controls and procedures do
      not include certain components of internal control over financial
      reporting pertaining to the accurate recording of transactions and
      disposition of assets or to the safeguarding of assets. The particular
      components of internal control over financial reporting in which we
      detected material weaknesses; in our disaster or backup of core business
      functions; and our lack of segregation of duties; and our  lack
      of documented and reviewed system of internal control  are not
      components included in our disclosure controls and
    procedures.

    We hope
that the information contained in this letter satisfactorily addresses the
Staff’s comments.  Please do not hesitate to contact Ruba Qashu, Esq.,

    EXHIBIT
A

    Proposed
Revised Item 9A

    Item
9A.   Controls and Procedures

    Disclosure
Controls and Procedures

    As of
December 31, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form
10-K, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

    Disclosure
controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, such as this report, is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that
such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are
procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable
assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported
and our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit
the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

    We
identified certain matters that constitute material weakness (as defined under
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in our
internal control over financial reporting as discussed on Management’s Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting below.

    Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

    Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting.  Our internal control over financial
reporting is a process, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

    Our
internal control over financial reporting include those policies and procedures
that:

              ·

              pertain
      to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and
      fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our
      assets;

              ·

              provide
      reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to
      permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with
      accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
      and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance
      with authorizations of our management and our directors;
    and

              ·

              provide
      reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
      unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could
      have a material effect on the financial
  statements.

    Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting can
provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Further, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting may vary over time. Our system contains self monitoring
mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are
identified.

    Our CEO
and CFO conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 based on the framework in
Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). A material weakness is a
deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial
reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis.

    Based
upon that assessment, we have identified the following material
weaknesses:

    Insufficient
disaster recovery or backup of core business functions

    Inadequate
backup of our critical data and software used by our business could cause loss
of financial data and business interruptions, should a disaster
occur.  We have implemented regular backup procedures for our data
relating to our financial reporting, which include off-site
storage.  We are planning to also install a remote server running the
software programs used for our financial reporting processes, so that we can
quickly recover our backup data and use it at a remote location, in the event of
a disaster.  We anticipate this additional measure to be completed in
the next quarter.

    Lack
of segregation of duties

    We have
limited staff in our corporate offices and, as such, there is a lack of
segregation of duties.  With the resignation of our Chief Financial
Officer in April 2008, our Chief Executive Officer assumed the duties of both
President and Chief Financial Officer.  Many functions, including
purchasing, accounts payable, bank reconciliations and month end closings, have
not been adequately segregated.  In January 2009, we hired a Chief
Financial Officer, adding to the management oversight of financial accounting
processes.  We now have separate individuals performing purchasing,
accounts payable processing, and bank reconciliations.  Our Chief
Financial Officer supervises and reviews the month end closing
process.  Our Chief Operating Officer oversees the cash
disbursements.  Checks are signed by the Chief Executive
Officer.  At this time, we believe that we have established adequate
segregation of duties to the extent possible with our small staff
size.  The close supervision and oversight by management also
mitigates the remaining weakness in internal controls resulting from a lack of
segregation of duties.

    Lack
of documented and reviewed system of internal control

    We have
an internal control weakness due to the lack of a documented and reviewed system
of internal controls.  We have determined that to perform the
processes and remediate this internal control deficiency, we will either need to
engage an internal control consultant or reassign existing
personnel.  We have started to enhance some of our key internal
control systems surrounding inventory purchasing and control, and to document
those changes; however, this process is on-going and the implementation of
policies and procedures may take several quarters.

              3.

              We
      note that you have a pending Form S-3 (File no. 333-156908) filed on May
      4, 2009, originally filed as an S-1 on January 23, 2009. We issued a
      comment letter on the Form S-3/A (File no. 333-156908) on May 28, 2009 to
      address your Controls and Procedures disclosure in your Form 10-K filed on
      March 27, 2009. We issued the following comments on that
      filing:

        1

              A.

              We
      note that your Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over
      Financial Reporting concludes that your system of internal control over
      financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2008. Throughout
      both your Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial
      Reporting and Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
      Procedures, you refer to deficiencies related to your "internal control
      procedures" or your "system of internal controls." Please clarify what:
      you are referring to when you reference those
  terms.

              B.

              Please
      provide a more detailed description of your remediation effects to address
      your material weaknesses related to your internal controls, over financial
      reporting. Your revised disclosure should also include clear disclosure of
      the current status of these efforts. We note that your current disclosure
      appears to indicate that certain steps have already been completed and
      others are prospective in nature.

              C.

              Please
      advise us why you believe your disclosure controls and, procedures are
      effective given that your internal control over financial reporting is
      ineffective.

              4.

              We
      note that you filed a response letter on June 2, 2009 for your File no.
      333­156908 Form S-3/A to address the Controls and Procedures listed
      above in Comment three. We specifically note your response to comment 3A
      (comment 7 in our May 28, 2009 letter). We do not understand your response
      given the disclosure in your Form 10-K. We reissue our prior
      comment.

              Response:
      We have revised the disclosure in Item 9A to clearly differentiate between
      internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and
      procedures. Please see the attached proposed revised Item 9A. Subject to
      the Staff’s approval, we intend to file an amendment to the Company’s Form
      10-K to include the revised Item
9A.

              We
      note your response to comment 3B (comment 8 in our May 28, 2009 letter).
      Please incorporate your response to comment 3B in an amendment to the Form
      10-K or tell us why you believe an amendment is not
    necessary.

    Response:
We intend to file an amendment to the Company’s Form 10-K to provide expanded
disclosure in Item 9A of the remediation efforts by the Company to address
material weaknesses related to its internal control over financial
reporting.

              We
      note your response to comment 3C (comment 9 in our May 28, 2009 letter),
      please provide us in greater detail the basis for your belief that your
      disclosure controls and procedures are effective in light of your
      conclusion that your internal controls over financial reporting is not
      effective. Please dearly indicate why your material weaknesses related to
      your internal control over financial reporting would not materially affect
      your disclosure controls and procedures. We may have further
      comment.

              Our
      assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, as covered
      under Item 308, resulted in the determination that we have several
      material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting,
      including each of (i) in our disaster or backup of core business
      functions, (ii) our segregation of duties and (iii) our documented and

              Our disclosure controls and

      reporting that provide reasonable assurances that transactions are
      recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in

      not include certain components of internal control over financial
      reporting pertaining to the accurate recording of transactions and

      weaknesses; in our disaster or backup of core business functions; our lack
      of segregation of duties; and our lack of documented and reviewed system

    Item
9A.   Controls and Procedures

    Disclosure
Controls and Procedures

    As of
December 31, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form
10-K, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

    Disclosure
controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, such as this report, is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that
such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are
procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable
assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported
and our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit
the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

    We
identified certain matters that constitute material weakness (as defined under
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in our
internal control over financial reporting as discussed on Management’s Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting below.

    Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

    Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting.  Our internal control over financial
reporting is a process, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

    Our
internal control over financial reporting include those policies and procedures
that:

              ·

              pertain
      to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and
      fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our
      assets;

              ·

              provide
      reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to
      permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with
      accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
      and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance
      with authorizations of our management and our directors;
    and

              ·

              provide
      reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
      unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could
      have a material effect on the financial
  statements.

    Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting can
provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Further, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal control
over financial reporting may vary over time. Our system contains self monitoring
mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are
identified.

    Our CEO
and CFO conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 based on the framework in
Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). A material weakness is a
deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial
reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis.

    Based
upon that assessment, we have identified the following material
weaknesses:

    Insufficient
disaster recovery or backup of core business functions

    Inadequate
backup or our critical data and software used by our business could cause loss
of financial data and business interruptions, should a disaster
occur.  We have implemented regular backup procedures for our data
relating to our financial reporting, which include off-site
storage.  We are planning to also install a remote server running the
software programs used for our financial reporting processes, so that we can
quickly recover our backup data and use it at a remote location, in the event of
a disaster.  We anticipate this additional measure to be completed in
the next quarter.

        4

    Lack
of segregation of duties

    We have
limited staff in our corporate offices and, as such, there is a lack of
segregation of duties.  With the resignation of our Chief Financial
Officer in April 2008, our Chief Executive Officer assumed the duties of both
President and Chief Financial Officer.  Many functions, including
purchasing, accounts payable, bank reconciliations and month end closings, have
not been adequately segregated.  In January 2009, we hired a Chief
Financial Officer, adding to the management oversight of financial accounting
processes.  We now have separate individuals performing purchasing,
accounts payable processing, and bank reconciliations.  Our Chief
Financial Officer supervises and reviews the month end closing
process.  Our Chief Operating Officer oversees the cash
disbursements.  Checks are signed by the Chief Executive
Officer.  At this time, we believe that we have established adequate
segregation of duties to the extent possible with our small staff
size.  The close supervision and oversight by management also
mitigates the remaining weakness in internal controls resulting from a lack of
segregation of duties.

    Lack
of documented and reviewed system of internal control

    We have
an internal control weakness due to the lack of a documented and reviewed system
of internal controls.  We have determined that to perform the
processes and remediate this internal control deficiency, we will either need to
engage an internal control consultant or reassign existing
personnel.  We have started to enhance some of our key internal
control systems surrounding inventory purchasing and control, and to document
those changes; however, this process is on-going and the implementation of
policies and procedures may take several quarters.

    As a
result of the material weaknesses described above, management concluded that, as
of December 31, 2008, we did not maintain effective internal control over
financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework, issued by COSO.

    This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered
public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report
in this annual report.

    Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial
Reporting

    During
the year ended December 31, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act)
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.

    Dear Mr.
Reynolds:

    On behalf
of Reed’s, Inc.  (the “Company” or “Reed’s”), set forth below are the
Company’s partial responses to the comments received from the staff (“Staff”) of
the Securities and Exchange Commission in the letter dated May 28,
2009.  We are addressing comments 7-9 concerning the Company’s annual
report on Form 10K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, filed March 27,
2009 ( “2008 10K”) and intend to address the remaining comments under separate
cover. We have reproduced the Staff’s comments in bold type for your convenience
and have followed the comment with the Company’s response.  References
in this letter to “we”, “our”, or “us” mean the Company or its advisors, as the
context may require.

              7.

              We
      note that your Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over
      Financial Reporting concludes your system of internal control over
      financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2008.
      Throughout  your Management’s Annual Report on Internal

      your “internal control procedures” or your “system of internal
      controls”.  Please clarify what you are referring to when you
      reference these terms.

    Response:  Throughout
our disclosure, the references to “internal control procedures” and “system of
internal controls” refer to our disclosure controls and procedures over
financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a- 15(e) and 15d- 15(e) under the
Exchange Act, and based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (“COSO”).

              8.

              Please
      provide a more detailed description of your remediation efforts to address
      your material weaknesses related to your internal controls over financial
      reporting. Your revised disclosure should also include clear disclosure of
      the current status of these efforts.  We note that your current
      disclosure appears to indicate that certain steps have already been
      completed and others are prospective in
nature.

    Response:
With regard to our remediation efforts to address our material weaknesses
relating to controls over financial reporting:

              ·

              Insufficient
      disaster recovery or backup of core business
      functions.  We have implemented regular backup procedures
      for our data relating to our financial reporting, which include off-site

      so that we can quickly recover our backup data and use it at a remote
      location, in the event of a disaster.  We anticipate this
      additional measure to be completed in the next
  quarter.

              ·

              Lack of
      segregation of duties.  We have limited staff in our
      corporate offices and, as such, there is a lack of segregation of
      duties.  With the resignation of our Chief Financial Officer in

      President and Chief Financial Officer.  Many functions,
      including purchasing, accounts payable, bank reconciliations and month end

      by management also mitigates the remaining weakness in internal controls
      resulting from a lack of segregation of
duties.

      either need to engage an internal control consultant or reassign existing

      control systems surrounding inventory purchasing and control, and to
      document those changes; however, this process is on-going and the
      implementation of policies and procedures may take several
      quarters.

              9.

              Please
      advise us why you believe your disclosure controls and procedures are
      effective given that your internal control over financial reporting is
      ineffective.

    Response:  We
believe that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective, despite our
identified weaknesses in internal control procedures.  Due to the
small size of our Company and our financial reporting staff, we are able to
closely supervise the procedures surrounding the compilation of data leading to
our financial reporting.  We believe that material misstatements would
be detected and corrected as they occur.

    We respectfully submit that our
conclusions that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and our
responses herein do not necessitate that an amendment to our 2008 10K be
filed.

    We hope
that the information contained in this letter satisfactorily addresses comments

    Dear Mr.
Reynolds:

    On behalf
of Reed’s, Inc.  (the “Company” or “Reed’s”), set forth below are the
Company’s responses to the comments received from the staff (“Staff”) of the
Securities and Exchange Commission in the letter dated February 22,
2009.  We have reproduced the Staff’s comments in bold type for your
convenience and have followed the comment with the Company’s
response.  References in this letter to “we”, “our”, or “us” mean the
Company or its advisors, as the context may require.

    General

    1.           We
note that your registration statement appears to be incomplete with many blank
spaces and missing terms as they become known.  We may have further
comment.

    Response:  We
acknowledge that you may have further comment until the registration statement
is complete.

    2.           Please
clarify when the board will set the subscription price and the duration of the
exercise period for the stock rights.

    Mr. John
Reynolds

    Securities
and Exchange Commission

    Response:  The
subscription price has been set at $10.00 per share of Series B
Preferred.  The duration of the exercise period shall be set prior to
effectiveness of the Registration Statement on Form S-3.

    3.           Please
revise to indicate the maximum number of rights that can be exercised under this
stock rights offering.  It appears that the maximum is 4,444,444
shares of common stock, which is $10,000,000 divided by the minimum allowable
exercise price of $2.25 per share.  If true, please revise your cover
page and other appropriate areas of your registration statement to include this
figure, along with the number of shares outstanding that are eligible to receive
stock rights to purchase one share of common stock.

    Response: We have revised our
disclosure to incorporate this information with regards to the new offering
terms.

    4.           Since
there are approximately 9 million shares of common stock outstanding of your
stock, please clarify in the appropriate places in your registration statement
how the shares underlying the stock rights will be allocated if more than
4,444,444 shares are exercised in the basic subscription right prior to the
over-subscription pro rata scheme described on page 87.  Similarly,
please clarify how Maxim’s warrant affects exercise of the stock rights if
either the basic subscription or over-subscription rights are oversubscribed by
shareholders of the stock rights in this offering.

    Response:  The
terms of the offering have been revised.  As such, the basic
subscription rights may no longer be over-susbcribed and Maxim is no longer
involved in this offering.

    5.           We
note your disclosure in a number of instances that “unless our board of
directors waives the maximum offering amount, we will raise no more than
$10,000,000 in this offering.”  We note that you have registered a
maximum of $10,000,000 of securities pursuant to this registration
statement.  Supplementally advise how the company plans on raising
more than $10,000,000 in the offering given the amount of securities registered
on its Form S-1.  We may have further comment.

    Response:  The
terms of the offering have been revised.  We are registering150,000
shares of Series B Preferred at an offering price of $10.00 per
share.  The maximum offering amount is $1,500,000. We will not raise
more than $1,500,000 in this offering.

    6.           Please
clarify whether the board of directors may extend the stock rights offering
beyond 20 days of the original expiration date and under what circumstances it
may do so.

Response:  The
Board of Directors may extend the rights offering if the offering is
undersubscribed, at their sole discretion. We have revised our disclosure
accordingly.

    7.           On page 86, you indicate that the
subscription rights will not be listed for trading on any stock exchange or
market.  We note, however, on the cover page, page 3, and page 12 seem
to indicate that the rights are transferable and will be
listed.  Please revise to clarify or remove this inconsistency.

    Response:  Due to
the revised terms of the offering, the rights are no longer
transferable.  We have revised our disclosures for consistency
accordingly.

    8.           We
note your statement that the stock rights will be listed on the NASDAQ Capital
Market, please advise us whether they have been approved for listing by Nasdaq
and/or whether you plan on filing a Form 8-A.

      Response: Due to revised
offering terms, the rights will not be listed on NASDAQ. We have revised our
disclosures accordingly.

      9.           We
note that as of today your common stock price is $1.13 per share, substantially
below the minimum exercise price of $2.25 per share.  We also note
your disclosure that the price per share will not be less than $2.25 unless
waived by our board of directors.  Please advise us how this will
impact your offering or the timing of your offering.

      Response:  We have
revised the offering to provide for the sale of Series B Preferred in lieu of
common stock.

      10.           Please
clarify here and other appropriate places in the registration statement that in
order to receive any over-subscription rights, the shareholder must: 1) exercise
their entire allotment of basic subscription rights; 2) that the exercise price
for both the basic and over-subscription rights is the same amount; and 3) that
the over-subscription rights must be exercised at the same time as the basic
subscription rights.

      Response:  We have
revised our disclosure accordingly.

      (“Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission in the letter dated August
      21, 2008. We have reproduced the Staff’s comments for your convenience and have
      followed the comment with the Company’s response. References in this letter to

    Risk
      Factors, page 5

            1.

              Your
                risk factor on page 14 appears to state a generic risk regarding
                your
                system of internal control over financial reporting, including statements
                indicating that management “may” conclude that your system is ineffective.
                But your Form 10-KSB for the period ended December 31, 2007 indicates
                that
                management has concluded that your system of internal control over
                financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2007. Please
                revise
                this risk factor to disclose management’s conclusion that your internal
                control over financial reporting was ineffective and provide a brief
                description of the material deficiencies, as disclosed beginning
                on page
                37 of your annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended
                December
                31, 2007.

    Response:
      We will
      revise this risk factor to identify weaknesses in our internal control
      procedures. Please note however, as disclosed in our Form 10-KSB, despite the
      lack of the complete implementation of recommended improvements to the
      identified weaknesses in our internal control procedures, our Chief Executive
      Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2007,
      such disclosure controls and procedures were
      effective
      to
      ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file
      or
      submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
      within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and
      accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
      Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
      regarding required disclosure.

      Dear
        Ms.
        Ransom:

      On
        behalf
        of Reed’s, Inc. (the “Company”), we are writing to respond to the comments set
        forth in the comment letter of the staff of the Securities and Exchange
        Commission (the “Commission”), dated October 12, 2007 (the “comment letter”)
        relating to the above-referenced Registration Statement on Form SB-2
        (File
        No. 333-146012)
        which
        was filed on September 12, 2007 and the Form 10-QSB which was filed on August
        20, 2007. The Company also has responded to the comment letter by the filing
        of
        the Pre-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form SB-2/A
        (the “Amended Registration Statement”)
        with the
        Commission. The Amended Registration Statement has been filed electronically
        pursuant to EDGAR, and we will provide you with an additional copy, marked
        to
        show all changes.

      The
        following responses correspond to the numbered paragraphs in your comment
        letter. The responses and undertakings contained in this letter are the
        positions of the Company, except as reflected in the response to your Comment
        5
        regarding the opinion of this firm included as Exhibit 5.1 to the Amended
        Registration Statement. For your convenience, we have set forth each comment
        in
        bold typeface and included the Company’s response below the relevant

      Calculation

                1.

                We
                  note your indication in footnote (2) that you have calculated the
                  registration fee according to the price paid originally for such
                  securities, even though you also refer to Rule 457(c). Tell us
                  why you did
                  not rely upon the method set forth in Rule 457(c), which refers
                  to the
                  average of the bid and asked prices of securities traded
                  over-the-counter.

      In
        response to your comments, the Company has recalculated the registration
        fee
        based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on September 11,
        2007, the date immediately preceding the initial filing date of the Registration
        Statement.

                  indicate that “[i]formation covering the selling stockholder may change
                  from time to time and changed information will be presented in
                  a

                  changes by post-effective amendment or tell us why you believe
                  it is
                  appropriate to make changes to your selling stockholders via a
                  prospectus
                  supplement.

      In
        response to your comments, the Company has revised the Registration Statement

        Dear
          Mr.
          Moran:

        On
          behalf
          of Reed’s, Inc. (the “Company”), we are writing to respond to the comments set
          forth in the comment letter of the staff of the Securities and Exchange
          Commission, dated August 28, 2007 (the “comment letter”) relating to the
          above-referenced Form 10-KSB which was filed on April 16, 2007. The following
          responses correspond to the numbered paragraphs in your comment letter.
          For your
          convenience, we have set forth each comment in bold typeface and included
          the
          Company’s response below the relevant comment:

                  1.

                  We
                    note your response to prior comment 3 of our letter dated June
                    29, 2007.
                    As indicated in your disclosure on page 21 “federal securities laws do not
                    provide that a rescission offer will terminate a purchaser’s right to
                    rescind a sale of stock that was not registered as required or
                    was not
                    otherwise exempt from such registration requirements. Accordingly,
                    although the rescission offer may have been accepted or rejected
                    by some
                    of the offerees, we may continue to be liable under federal and
                    state
                    securities laws for up to an amount equal to the value of all
                    shares of
                    common stock issued in connection with the initial public offering,
                    plus
                    any statutory interest we may be required to pay.” Specifically EITF D-98
                    paragraph 4 states “rule 5-02.28 of Regulation S-X requires securities
                    with redemption features that are not solely within the control
                    of the
                    issuer to be classified outside of permanent equity. Events that
                    could
                    trigger redemption should be evaluated separately and the possibility
                    that
                    any triggering event that is not solely within the control of
                    the issuer
                    could occur - without regard to probability - would require the
                    security
                    to be classified outside of permanent equity.” If you continue to believe
                    the shares are properly classified as permanent equity please
                    explain
                    using current Federal Securities Laws how you, as the offeror,
                    are solely
                    in control when the offerees have rights that cannot be terminated.
                    Further, demonstrate for us how you believe the defenses available
                    to you
                    would allow you to prevail against a shareholder’s claim for
                    damages.

        Pursuant
          to our conversation of September 12, 2007, you agreed that this comment
          was not
          applicable and has been withdrawn.

        Statement
          of Cash Flows, page F-5

                  2.

                  We
                    note your response to prior comment 4 of our letter dated June
                    29, 2007.
                    We do not believe combining gross borrowings and gross payments
                    accurately
                    portrays gross reporting. Further, please explain your repayment
                    terms and
                    explain how they qualify as having a maturity of three months
                    or less. See
                    SFAS 95 paragraph 13.

        The
          Company believes that its presentation of its statement of cash flows of
          net
          reporting of borrowings on the Company’s line of credit during the periods
          covered by the Form 10-KSB is consistent with SFAS 95. Appendix C (paragraph
          130) of SFAS 95 sets forth certain “illustrative examples” of the preparation of
          statements of cash flows (see paragraphs 131 and 132 for an illustration
          of a
          statement of cash flows for a domestic manufacturing company). In each
          of these
          examples, in the first line item in “Cash Flows from Financing Activities,” the
          conventional presentation uses “net borrowings under line-of-credit agreement”.
          The Company’s presentation of its statement of cash flows with respect to its
          line of credit is consistent with this method, and therefore, the Company
          believes that its presentation is appropriate under SFAS 95.

        During
          the relevant periods covered by the Form 10-KSB, the Company used its primary
          line of credit on a frequent basis. As an example, the Company often “drew down”
on the available line of credit two or three times a week. In addition,
          the
          Company also often “paid down” the line of credit two or three times a week
          based on the collection of receivables. Each “draw down” may be deemed to be
          large under SFAS 95 because the amount of its “draw down” provided the Company
          with the ability to pay its operating expenses. Likewise, its “pay down” may be
          deemed to be large under SFAS 95 because the “pay down” represented virtually
          all payments which the Company received from its customers. The Company’s
          arrangements with its primary lender and the Company’s frequent and large “draw
          downs” required the Company to apply a large portion, if not the entire portion,
          of receivable collections to “pay down” its outstanding line of credit balance.
          Based on this frequent activity, the Company believes that its utilization
          of
          its primary line of credit may appropriately be presented on a net basis,
          consistent with the guidance of paragraphs 11, 12 and 13 (and Appendix
          C) of
          SFAS 95.

1. We note your response to prior comment 3 of our letter dated June 29, 2007.  As
indicated in your disclosure on page 21 “federal securities laws do not provide
that a rescission offer will terminate a purch aser’s right to rescind a sale of stock
that was not registered as required or was not otherwise exempt from such registration requirements. Accordingly, although the rescission offer may have been accepted or rejected by some of the offerees, we may continue to be liable under federal and state securitie s laws for up to an amount equal to the value of all
shares of common stock issued in connection with the initial public offering, plus

Ms. Judy Holloway Reed

any statutory interest we may be requir ed to pay.”  Specifically EITF D-98
paragraph 4 states “rule 5-02.28 of Re gulation S-X requires securities with
redemption features that are not solely within the control of the issuer to be classified outside of permanent equity. Events that could trigger redemption should be evaluated separately and the possi bility that any trig gering event that is
not solely within the control of the issuer could occur—without regard to
probability—would require the security to be classified outside of permanent
equity.” If you continue believe the shar es are properly classified as permanent
equity please explain using current Federal Securities Laws how you, as the offeror, are solely in control when th e offerees have rights that cannot be
terminated. Further, demonstrate for us how you believe the defenses available to
you would allow you to prevail against a shareholder’s claim for damages.

2. We note your response to prior comment 4 of our letter dated June 29, 2007.  We

              We
                note the west coast Brewery is only running at 40% capacity, negatively
                impacting gross margins. Please explain why the Brewery is operating
                at
                40% capacity. Please clarify for us if your disclosure in the section
                titled Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 34, that there are no
                material commitments for capital expenditures implies that currently
                management has no plans to fix and or increase capacity at the Brewery.
                If
                this is not accurate please include management’s course of action or
                proposal to remedy the deficiency. Further, we would expect events
                that
                materially affect operations to also be included in MD&A for the
                interim period ended March 31, 2006. Please explain why you have
                chosen
                not to discuss the status of the Brewery in your interim 10QSB for
                the
                period ended March 31,
                2007.

    The
      chief
      reason the West Coast Brewery is running at 40% of capacity is that the Company
      is not able to produce Ginger Brew to the quality standards achieved at the
      Company’s East Coast co-packing facility.

    As
      disclosed in the Overview section of the management’s Discussion in the
      Company’s Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006, we have had
      difficulties with the flavor of our Ginger Brew products produced at the
      Brewery. As a result, “we continue to supply our Ginger Brew products at the
      Brewery from our east coast co-packing facility, thereby causing us to incur
      increased freight and warehousing expenses on our products. Management is
      committed to selling a high quality, great tasting product and has elected
      to
      continue to sell certain of our Ginger Brew products produced from our east
      coast facility on the west coast, even though it negatively impacts our gross
      margins. As we are able to make the Brewery become more fully utilized, we
      believe that we will experience improvements in gross margins due to freight
      and
      production savings.” Management’s plan in regard to increasing the utilization
      of the West Coast Brewery is to seek to improve the quality of Ginger Brew
      produced and to produce products, other than Ginger Brew, which have not had
      production quality issues. This plan, at this time, does not include material
      commitments for capital expenditures. The Company expended approximately
      $100,000 for new equipment in the second quarter of 2007 for a conveyor system
      to improve its packaging line, but does not consider this improvement to have
      been a material capital expenditure for the purpose of improving plant capacity.
      The Company believes that the increased production of its Virgil’s product line
      (non-Ginger Brew) has increased utilization of plant operating capacity that
      will be reflected in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the
      quarter ended June 30, 2007.

    The
      Company did not include the above disclosure regarding the 40% in the March
      31,
      2007 Form 10-QSB because there were no material changes from the disclosure
      contained in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
      2006.

              We
                note your disclosure that recycling fees increased 11.3% in 2006.
                To help
                us further understand the cost of recycling please explain to us
                how the
                program works and whether your cost is the difference between what
                the
                Company pays into a state fund versus how many bottles are
                redeemed/recycled by consumers. In California for instance we were
                under
                the impression manufacturers and distributors paid into a Department
                of
                Conservation fund and were then reimbursed through the fund based
                on the
                number of bottles that were
                returned/redeemed.

    The
      reason for the increase in recycling fees in 2006 was due to increased sales
      of
      the Company’s products in states with higher recycling fees than in California.
      In addition, the Company incurs higher recycling fees in circumstances where
      the
      Company acts as a direct distributor to retailers, rather than selling to
      distributors (and indirectly to retailers). In 2006, the Company increased
      its
      sales under circumstances where the Company is a direct distributor to
      retailers, and, as a result, caused an increase in recycling fees from the
      prior
      year.

              We
                note 333,156 shares, less the 32 holders of 28,420 shares who accepted
                the
                rescission rights, of your common stock issued in connection with
                the
                initial public offering may have been issued in violation of state
                and
                federal securities laws. Until the Company no longer has an obligation
                to
                the holders of these shares we believe the shares should be reclassified
                as temporary equity. Please refer to EITF D-98, Regulation S-X 5-02(28)
                and SAB 107(E).

    We
      have reviewed your comment and we believe that EITF D-98 and the other cited
      references have no application to the Company’s situation. The
      Company has completed its rescission offer, and believes that it has taken
      the
      appropriate steps to remedy claims available under the applicable securities
      laws of the jurisdictions in which the rescission offer was conducted, and
      had
      foreclosed available claims under such laws with respect to the rights of the
      relevant stockholders to obtain a remedy for damages based on the failure to
      register the shares that were sold in connection with the initial public
      offering. As such, although the stockholders may attempt to assert possible
      claims, any such claims would be a claim for damages. To date, no such claims
      have been asserted. The Company is not aware of any claims that might result
      in
      further liability and would defend any claims, if ever asserted. Further, in
      connection with the process of conducting the rescission offer, the Company
      believes that it has good defenses to any potentially asserted claims. In
      addition, potential rescission is not a contractual obligation to redeem, but
      rather a process for asserting a legal claim and seeking damages. Thus, it
      does
      not appear that the elements required to treat the contingent claims (that
      have
      not been asserted) as temporary equity are appropriate at this
      time.

              Please
                note that borrowings and repayments of debt should be presented on
                a gross
                basis pursuant to SFAS 95.

    The
      Company believes that it has complied with the disclosure requirement of FASB
      95
      in that activity in long term debt is presented based on gross borrowings and
      gross repayments. The Company has also disclosed the gross payoff amount of
      our
      line of credit. The Company believes that the presentation of net borrowings
      on
      line of credit facilities is consistent with the provisions of FASB 95,
      paragraph 12, because the turnover is quick, the amounts are large, and the
      maturities are short.

              Please
                clarify for us how SFAS 158 will be effective for the Company as
                of your
                year ending August 31, 2007. Please refer to SFAS 158 paragraphs
                11-14.

    SFAS
      158
      deals with the accounting for defined
      benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The Company does not have a
      defined benefit pension plan or other postretirement plans. Therefore, SFAS
      158
      does not apply to the Company, and will not have a material effect on the
      Company’s results
      of operations, financial position or cash flow.
      This
      was disclosed in our 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006.

                conclusion for deferral.

    The
      deferred costs of $82,585, as of March 31, 2007, consisted of expenses incurred
      for a planned private placement of our common stock and warrants to accredited
      investors. Since these costs were directly associated with the sale of common
      stock and warrants, this treatment is consistent with our accounting policy
      of
      deferred offering costs. Subsequent to March 31, 2007, the private placement
      was
      completed. As such, and the deferred costs will be charged to APIC in the
      Company’s Quarterly Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Item 6 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Net Sales, page 28

1. We note the west coast Brewery is on ly running at 40% capacity, negatively
impacting gross margins.  Please explain why the Brewery is operating at 40% capacity.  Please clarify for us if your disc losure in the sectio n titled Liquidity and
Capital Resources, page 34, that there are no material commitments for capital
expenditures implies that currently ma nagement has no plans to fix and or
increase capacity at the Brewery.  If this is not accurate please include management’s course of action or proposal  to remedy the deficiency. Further, we
would expect events that materially a ffect operations to also be included in
MD&A for the interim period ended Ma rch 31, 2006.  Please explain why have
chosen not to discuss the status of th e Brewery in your interim 10QSB for the
period ended March 31, 2007.

Results of Operations, page 32

2. We note your disclosure that  recycling fees increased 11.3% in 2006.  To help us
further understand the cost of recycling please explain to us how the program
works and whether your cost is the diffe rence between what the Company pays
into a state fund versus how many bottles  are redeemed/recycled by consumers.
In California for instance we were  under the impression manufacturers and
distributors paid into a Department of Conservation fund and were then reimbursed through the fund based on the number of bottles that were returned/redeemed.

3. We note 333,156 shares, less the 32 holders of 28, 420 shares who accepted the
rescission rights, of your common stock i ssued in connection with the initial
public offering may have been issued in violation of state and federal securities
laws.  Until the Company no longer has an  obligation to the holders of these
shares we believe the shares should be re classified as temporary equity.  Please

    As
      requested in the Staff's correspondence, dated July 13, 2006, in connection

      such request for acceleration, Reed’s, Inc. hereby acknowledges the
      following:

              ·

              should
                the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority,
                declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission
                from

                filing;

              the
                action of the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated
                authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the
                Company

Re:	Reed`s, Inc.
      Registration Statement on Form SB-2
      File No. 333-120451
      Amended April 28, 2005

Dear Mr. Reed:

      We have reviewed your amended filing and have the following
comments.  Where indicated, we think you should revise your
document
in response to these comments.  If you disagree, we will consider
your explanation as to why our comment is inapplicable or a
revision
is unnecessary.  Please be as detailed as necessary in your
explanation.  In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide
us
with supplemental information so we may better understand your
disclosure.  After reviewing this information, we may or may not
raise additional comments.

      Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing.
We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.

Form SB-2

General
1. We note your response to our prior comment 1.  It appears that
Mr.
Sharma, who is both an affiliate of the issuer and a
representative
of the underwriter, and is involved in "marketing" of the
offering,
is engaged in the distribution of securities in this offering.
Moreover, he is receiving a substantial portion of the commissions
and fees you will pay Brookstreet.  It is our view therefore that
Mr.
Sharma is an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 12(a)(11)
of
the Securities Act.  Accordingly, please revise to state in the
Plan
of Distribution section that Mr. Sharma is an underwriter.
  Prospectus Front Cover Page
2. We note that you have added in this amendment several new
artworks, which you have not provided the staff earlier for
review.
It is not clear that the first artwork is on the front cover page
of
your prospectus.  If that is so, it is not consistent with the
requirements of Item 501 of Regulation S-B.  Please remove any
artwork or graphic material from the prospectus front cover page.
In
addition, please tell us whether you have used this particular
prospectus for distribution purposes.  We may have further
comments.
Forward-Looking Statements, page 8
3. We note your response to our prior comment 2.  As you are
responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all contents of
the
registration statement, please delete the statement to the
contrary
in the last sentence of the last paragraph.

Management`s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Results of Operations, page 18
4. We reviewed your response to comment 59 from our comment letter
dated December 10, 2004.  On page 18 of this filing you state that
the increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily
due, among other reasons, to increased transportation expenses due
to
the expansion of local direct distribution and increased
depreciation
expenses due to equipment being used for local distribution.  Note
1(H) of the notes to the financial statements states that you
classify shipping and handling costs, freight costs and costs
associated with product distribution as costs of sales.  Please
supplementally explain this apparent inconsistency in income
statement classification and revise your filing accordingly. We
may
have further comments.

Business, page 21
5. The artworks you have included in this section in this
amendment
for the first time comprise new disclosure.  Please refer on pages
24
and 51 to the drawings of a cauldron, which allude to the natural,
kettle brewing process of your ginger drinks.  As it seems
unlikely
that you make the ginger brews in your plant in exactly the
depicted
way, please delete the graphics or, alternatively, provide
pictures
of your actual brewing process.  Please revise throughout the
document as needed.
6. Please represent to us that you have permission from the Wall
Street Journal to reprint the article you have added on page 28,
or
delete it.
7. In addition, in the same report, we note that Mr. Chris Reed
made
the claims that the public demand for crystallized ginger would be
similar to that for oat-bran "10 years ago," and that you were
"positioning (your)selves to be ready for it."  Please provide us
annotated third-party documentary evidence substantiating these
claims, or remove the article from the prospectus.  If you intend
to
retain this article, also explain whether all information
contained
in it is still valid given that two-and-a-half years have elapsed
since the date of the report.

Plan of Distribution, page 47
8. Please disclose in this section all commissions and fees, fixed
and contingent, that Mr. Sharma will receive in connection with
this
offering.

Financial Statements

Balance Sheet, page F-3
9. We note that you have recognized an asset for deferred stock
offering costs of $219,955.  Please tell us the specific nature
and
amount of each item capitalized as an expense of the offering.
Deferred offering costs should include only direct, incremental
costs
of the offering and should exclude indirect costs such as
management
salaries and advertising expenses, which must be expensed as
incurred.  Please advise or revise, as necessary.

Statements of Operations, page F-4
10. We reviewed your response to prior comment 9.  Based on review
of
your Form SB-2 filed on November 12, 2004 it appears that you had
approximately $53,000 of packaging design costs capitalized as of
December 31, 2003.  It appears that you have recorded an expense
in
2004 to write off your packaging design costs incurred in prior
periods.  Revise your filing to reflect the packaging design costs
in
the period they were incurred.  We assume that this will require
that
most, or all, of the expense will be recorded in 2003 given that
there does not appear to be significant activity in the packaging
design costs account in 2004.  Please apply the guidance in AU
561.06a of the AICPA professional standards and the reporting and
disclosure requirements of APB 20 paragraphs 36 and 37 as it
relates
to your restatement for your audited financial statements.
Additionally, on the face of each of the financial statements and
footnotes that are affected by the restatement, please clearly
label
the headings and applicable periods as restated.  Finally, as
stated
in AU 561.06a, your auditors should refer to the restatement note
describing the revisions in their auditor`s report.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1. Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1(N). Advertising Costs, page F-11
11. We have reviewed your response to prior comment 4.  In
response
to our comments 63 and 64 of our comment letter dated December 10,
2004 you stated that you do not engage in providing promotional
allowances described in EITF 01-09.  In response to comment 15 of
our
comment letter dated March 15, 2005 you stated that you do not
engage
in promotional allowance activity. In response to prior comment 8
you
indicate your "financial statements include a sales amount which
is
net of sales incentives, as required by EITF 01-9."   In this
third
amendment you disclose your policy of accounting for certain sales
incentives, including slotting fees is in accordance with EITF 01-
09.
In addition, on page 15 you state that supermarkets can require
more
advertising monies to be spent and sometimes require slotting fees
and that you work to keep these fees reasonable.  Please
supplementally explain the apparent inconsistencies between your
disclosures and your responses. Tell us the amount of each type of
sales incentive you offer for each period presented.  To the
extent
that sales incentives are material please disclose in the
Management`s Discussion and Analysis section the amounts of sales
incentives classified in each financial statement line item.

Note 8. Stockholders` Equity, page F-17
12. You state that 55,500 shares were issued in connection with
the
conversion of debt.  Your statement of changes in stockholders`
equity states that 25,500 were issued.  Please revise or advise.
13. We have reviewed your response to prior comment 3.  Per APB
Opinion No. 26 the difference between the reacquisition price and
the
net carrying amount of the extinguished debt should be recognized
currently in income of the period of extinguishment as losses or
gains rather than being charged directly to retained earnings. APB
Opinion No. 26 does apply to extinguishments of debt effected by
the
issuance of preferred stock.  The reacquisition price of the
extinguished debt is to be determined by the value of the
preferred
stock issued or the value of the debt--whichever is more clearly
evident.  Refer to FTB 80-1.  Please supplementally explain with
reference to authoritative guidance why you deem it appropriate
not
to recognize a loss on the extinguishment of debt in October 2004
considering that you extinguished $255,002 of debt and accrued
interest through the issuance of 25,500 preferred shares which
were
fair valued at a total of $408,000, assuming $16.00 per preferred
share.  Please revise if necessary.

Note 13. Related Party Activity, page F-20
14. Based on your disclosure, it appears that the line of credit
agreement between the Company and Mr. Sharma represents an
investing
activity consistent with paragraph 17a of SFAS 95.  Please revise
your statements of cash flows accordingly.

*	*	*	*	*

      As appropriate, please amend your registration statement in
response to these comments.  You may wish to provide us with
marked
copies of the amendment to expedite our review.  Please furnish a
cover letter with your amendment that keys your responses to our
comments and provides any requested supplemental information.
Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review.  Please
understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing
your
amendment and responses to our comments.

      You may contact Adam Phippen, Staff Accountant, at (202)

Reed’s
Inc

Beneficial
Conversion Feature

Response
to Comment 3

We
believe the measurement date, as defined in EITF 98-5, for most of the preferred
stock offering is May 2004. We base this determination on the fact that 1) our
subscription agreement has non-refundable language, which provides for a
sufficiently large disincentive for nonperformance, 2) one investor who signed
the subscription agreement in early May 2004, accounted for about 50% of the
proceeds received from the offering. (His subscription agreement will be
forthcoming by fax under separate cover. The subscriber is Robert Reed, Jr., the
brother of the Company’s President and he paid $150,000 for the
stock).

We plan
to become effective with the December 31, 2004 financial statements, putting us
at a May 2005 effective date. The offering would commence sometime after that. .
If for whatever reason we do not become effective with the December 31, 2004
financials, our offering would be further delayed by at least a
month.

If the
offering were to occur in May 2005, that puts us right at the cusp of one year
from the May 2004 measurement date, making the presumption to use the offering
price as the fair value of the stock in May 2004 less presumptive. Therefore, we
argue using the offering price as the fair value of the stock to be incorrect.

Our
argument is that the fair value of the stock in May 2004 is $2.50. We plan to
support this position using verifiable valuation criteria which we plan to
produce internally, using the assistance of outside consultants as needed.

If you
agree that the measurement date, for purposes of compliance with EITF 98-5 is
May 2004 and the presumption to use the offering price should be abandoned in
favor of a fair value calculation of the stock as of May 2004, then we will
proceed to produce the valuation described above.

If you do
not agree to our measurement date or the creation of an in-house, verifiable

Packaging
and Design Costs

Response
to Comment 9

We
believe our treatment of Packaging and Design Costs meets the definition of
intangible assets under SFAS 142, paragraph 10, because they are specifically
identifiable, have determinable lives and are not inherent in our continuing
business.

Our
packaging and design costs are specifically identifiable because they are costs
we incur, from third party graphic designers, to specifically design labeling
for our products. The costs we capitalize are costs associated with the final
rendition of the label.

These
costs have determinable lives because we know that the labels will have to
change given the changes in the market place, formulation changes, changes in
habits and preferences of consumers, etc. Based on our product life cycle we
have estimated these lives to be 10 years. We will change our estimate of useful
life, based on actual changes in the market place.

These
costs are not inherent in our continuing business because we do not incur these
costs on a regular basis in order to manufacture or sell our product. These
costs are incurred at the beginning of the product life cycle and will not be
incurred again until the product needs to be changed.

We
believe that our treatment of Packaging and Design Costs meet the definition of
FASB Concepts Statement No. 5, paragraph 63, i.e., it meets the definition of an
asset, it is measurable, it has relevance and it has reliability.

One basic
definition of an asset is that of a right or resource that has future benefit in
use and can be expressed in monetary terms, resulting from an enterprise's
transactions. We believe our treatment of Packaging and Design Costs meets the
definition of an asset under this definition because the future benefit of these
costs extends to the product life-cycle of our products. Further, we believe the
matching principle supports our classification of these costs as an asset,
because the amortization of the asset is matched with the revenue generation of
our product life-cycle. Expensing these costs at the time incurred, we believe,
would be a violation of the matching principle and a violation of the definition
of an asset.

The
attributes of measurability, relevance and reliability are highly subjective
criteria to measure. However, we believe our treatment of Packaging and Design
Costs meets these criteria based on the facts presented, the inherent nature of
why the costs are being incurred and the products which these costs
benefit.

To
further support our position, we call your attention to the December 31, 2004
Form 10-K filed by Marvel Enterprises, Inc. Please see footnote 2, Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies -Product and Package Design Costs. This
disclosure states “The Company capitalizes costs related to product and package
design when such products are determined to be commercially acceptable. Package
design costs include costs relating to art work, modeling and printing
separations used in the production of packaging.”

We
believe we have provided the burden of proof required to substantiate our
accounting treatment of Packaging and Design Costs. We trust you concur.

Re:	Reed`s, Inc.
      Registration Statement on Form SB-2
      File No. 333-120451
      Amended March 25, 2005

Dear Mr. Reed:

      We have reviewed your amended filing and have the following
comments.  Where indicated, we think you should revise your
document
in response to these comments.  If you disagree, we will consider
your explanation as to why our comment is inapplicable or a
revision
is unnecessary.  Please be as detailed as necessary in your
explanation.  In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide
us
with supplemental information so we may better understand your
disclosure.  After reviewing this information, we may or may not
raise additional comments.

      Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing.
We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.

Form SB-2

General
1. Please note that we still are considering your response to our
prior comment 1.
Forward-Looking Statements, page 8
2. Please delete references to Section 27A of the Securities Act
and
Section 21E of the Exchange Act on page 8, and to the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as the safe harbor
provided
by them for forward-looking statements is not available for an
initial registration statement.  In addition, as you are
responsible
for the accuracy and completeness of all contents of the
registration
statement, please delete the statement to the contrary in the last
paragraph of page 8.  You may retain the rest of the Forward-
Looking
Statements section if you so elect.

Dilution, Page 11
3. We have considered your response to prior comment 4.
Convertible
securities issued within a year prior to the filing of an initial
registration statement with a conversion price below the initial
offering price are presumed to contain an embedded beneficial
conversion feature.  To overcome this presumption, you must
provide
sufficient, objective and verifiable evidence that the conversion
price represented fair value at the issuance or commitment date.
We
do not believe your response provides such evidence.
Specifically,
you have not justified the use of a fair value lower than the
initial
offering price since your valuation was based on an approximation
of
value using a multiple of revenues of between 1 and 2 rather than
contemporaneous transactions in your securities or a third party
valuation.  Also, we do not believe your valuation provides better
evidence than the initial offering price given the proximity of
the
initial filing on Form SB-2 on November 12, 2004 to the issuance
of
the convertible preferred stock during November 2004.  Further, we
do
not believe that you have supported that June 30, 2004 is the
commitment date for purposes of applying the guidance in EITF 98-
5.
We base our assessment on the fact that the convertible preferred
stock was not created under Delaware law until after June 30,
2004,
was not issued until November 2004 and there were no disincentives
for non-performance in the subscription agreement.  Accordingly,
it
appears that the commitment date is the date of issuance.  Please
revise your filing to reflect the embedded beneficial conversion
feature using the expected initial public offering price.  If the
convertible preferred stock is convertible at the date of
issuance,
the beneficial conversion should be charged to retained earnings
at
the issuance date.

Management`s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies, page 15
4. In response to our initial comment 63 you stated that the
company
does not engage in promotional allowance activity.  Please remove
"Promotional Allowances" from the "Advertising and Promotional
Allowances" title in order to avoid confusion.

Plan of Distribution, page 43
5. We note your response to our prior comment 11.  Please expand
the
disclosure to disclose all of the factors that you considered in
determining the initial public offering price as there is no
public
market yet for your common stock.  For example, discuss, if
accurate,
whether the anticipated offering price was determined by
negotiations
between you and the selling agents, and whether you considered
other
factors like your record of operations, current financial
condition,
market conditions, prospects of your industry, your management,
the
currently prevalent condition in equity prices in the OTC Bulletin
Board market, the current market valuations of publicly traded
companies considered comparable to yours, and so on.  In addition,
please add a reminder on page 44 that you cannot assure investors
that the prices at which your shares will sell in the public
market
after this offering will not be lower than the initial public
offering price or that an active market in your common stock will
develop and continue after this offering.

Lock-in of Promotional Shares, page 45
6. We note your response to our prior comment 13.  Please identify
the agent in charge of the common stock subject to the escrow.
Also,
file the new lock-in agreements as exhibits.

Financial Statements

General
7. In response to several of our prior comments you have indicated
that you intend to revise your financial statements and/or notes,
but
you have not provided the proposed revisions for our review.
Please
understand that we may have further comments upon reviewing the
revisions included in your next amendment.

Notes to Financial Statements, page 45
8. In response to our prior comment 6 you revised your results of
operations disclosures to include discussion of sales of specific
products.  In your response to comment 58 from our initial comment
letter you stated that you do not generate product line revenue
information.  Please advise with consideration of initial comment
58
which is included as follows for your convenience:
* Revise your filing to provide the product line revenue
disclosure
required by paragraph 37 of SFAS 131.

Note 4. Intangible Assets, page 49
9. Under GAAP, marketing and advertising costs are period costs,
unless specific authoritative guidance supports capitalization.
This
is supported by paragraph 10 of SFAS 142, which requires expensing
of
costs that are inherent in a continuing business.  Please
supplementally explain how the design costs capitalized do not
meet
the definition of an expense as defined in paragraph 10 of SFAS
142
and FASB Concepts Statement No 5.  If you believe the capitalized
design costs are not expenses, please also supplementally explain
how
these costs meet the four fundamental recognition criteria for
assets
in paragraph 63 of FASB Concepts Statement No. 5 as required by
paragraph B29 of SFAS 142.  If you can support capitalization,
please
supplementally explain your basis for the ten-year useful life
assigned to capitalized design costs.  If you cannot support
capitalization of these costs, please revise your financial
statements to reflect such costs as expenses in the period(s) in
which they were incurred.
10. In your response to prior comment 16 your reference to
capitalization of costs to design trademarks and trade names does
not
appear to be supported by GAAP.  Only legal fees and similar costs
relating to patents, copyrights, and trademarks may be
capitalized.
Please confirm to us that it is not the company`s policy to
capitalize design costs related to trademarks and trade names.

Note 10. Stock Options, page 52
11. Prior comment 17 stated "This table in this note indicates
that
as of June 30, 2004 you have 72,500 options outstanding and
exercisable.  Page 34 states that as of the date of this
prospectus,
17,500 options have been issued under the 2001 Stock Option Plan.
Please revise or advise."  In your response to prior comment 17
you
state that additional language was added to page 34 to indicate a
total of 72,500 options.  It does not appear that additional
language
was added.  Please revise or advise.
*	*	*	*	*
      As appropriate, please amend your registration statement in
response to these comments.  You may wish to provide us with
marked
copies of the amendment to expedite our review.  Please furnish a
cover letter with your amendment that keys your responses to our
comments and provides any requested supplemental information.
Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review.  Please
understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing
your
amendment and responses to our comments.

      You may contact Adam Phippen, Staff Accountant, at (202)

Re:	Reed`s, Inc.
      Registration Statement on Form SB-2
      File No. 333-120451
      Amended February 23, 2005

Dear Mr. Reed:

      We have reviewed your amended filing and have the following
comments.  Where indicated, we think you should revise your
document
in response to these comments.  If you disagree, we will consider
your explanation as to why our comment is inapplicable or a

any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.

Form SB-2
1. We reissue our prior comment 1.  Your response states that Mr.
Sharma is not an underwriter because Section 2(a)(11) expressly
excludes from the definition of an underwriter "a person whose
interest is limited to a commission from an underwriter or dealer
not
in excess of the usual and customary distributor`s or selling
commission."  Please tell us in reasonable detail the precise
nature
of services that Mr. Sharma will perform in relation to this
offering, and tell us how his function and commission are
consistent
with Rule 141 of the Securities Act.

Prospectus Back Cover Page
2. We note your response to our prior comment 7.  We do not find
the
requisite language on dealer prospectus delivery obligations.  We
reissue the comment.

Prospectus Summary, page 1
3. We note your response to our prior comment 9.  Please provide
disclosure as requested under the first bullet point of our prior
comment.

Dilution, page 11
4. You state that the commitment date for the issuance of the
Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock was June 30, 2004.  Please
supplementally explain how you determined that June 30, 2004 was
the
commitment date as that term is defined in paragraph 1, footnote 1
of
EITF 98-5.  Please be sure to explain the large disincentives for
nonperformance that existed in the agreement as of June 30, 2004
such
that the investors` purchase of the preferred shares was probable
as
of June 30, 2004.   Absent "sufficiently large disincentives for
nonperformance" as of June 30, 2004, it appears that the
commitment
date for purposes of applying the guidance in EITF 98-5 would be
the
date that the preferred shares were sold to investors in October
2004.  Please advise.  We may have further comments after
reviewing
your response.

Management`s Discussion and Analysis

Overview, page 13
5. We note your response to our prior comment 9.  Please state the
percentage of your total sales revenue that you derive from your
products being sold at natural and specialty food stores, at
retail
stores serviced by your vehicles, and also at large retailers and
mainstream beverage distributors.

Results of Operations, page 17
6. Your revised disclosure indicates that increases in sales are
attributable to increases in new and existing product sales, but
you
do not discuss the specific products contributing to the sales
changes.  For changes in existing product sales, identify the
specific products driving the change in sales and explain why
sales
increased.   For example, if the increase in sales of existing
products is the result of sales to a new customer, state so.
Please
also break down the change in sales by reference to percentage
changes in average selling price and unit volumes, or other
metrics
used by management.  To the extent that introductions of new
products
were supported by one-time advertising or promotional campaigns or
discounted pricing to attract customers, please explain the nature
of
the special promotions and whether you anticipate that sales of
new
products at current levels are sustainable absent such promotions
or
discounts.  Please revise your filing accordingly.
7. In our prior comment 23, we requested that where you describe
two
or more business reasons that contributed to a material change in
a
financial statement line item between periods that you quantify
the
extent to which each change contributed to the overall change in
that
line item, if practical.  You provide a list of the primary
factors
leading to the decrease in gross margin through the first six
months
of 2004 totaling 0.4%.  However, gross margin decreased by 3.0%.
Please revise your filing to address the most significant factors
impacting the decrease in your gross margin.

Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 19
8. You identify increases in receivables and inventory, offset by
an
increase in accounts payable as the primary drivers of the use of
operating cash flow.   In our prior comment 23, we requested that
you
expand your discussion to address the specific business reasons
why
inventory and accounts payable fluctuated.  In this regard it
would
be helpful to disclose your inventory turnover, day`s payables
outstanding, or other metrics used by management to evaluate
working
capital.  Such disclosure should be accompanied by an explanation
and
analysis of any material trends indicated by the data.  Also,
please
supplementally provide us with your day`s sales outstanding for
each
period presented so that we may better understand your assertion
that
changes in receivables were directly attributable to an increase
in
June sales.  Please expand your disclosure accordingly.

9. We note your response to our prior comment 32.  Please identify
the co-pack facility in Germany as it is the only supplier of your
Virgil`s Root Beer swing-lid bottles.

Plan of Distribution, page 40
10. We note your response to our prior comment 41.  Please state
when
you expect Reed`s, Inc. to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
11. We note your response to our prior comment 44.  Please
disclose
in this section the information discussed in your response letter
on
how you have determined the anticipated offering price.

Lock-In of Promotional Shares, page 42
12. We note your response to our prior comment 50.  Please include
in
the table at the bottom of page 42 the number of shares and
options
related to Mr. Sharma and Mr. Grace, and the aggregate number of
shares and options underlying the lock-up agreement.
13. We note your response to our prior comment 51.  Please
identify
the agent in charge of the common stock and options subject to the
escrow.  In addition explain the legal basis of your statement
that
even though you did not withdraw your previous registration
statement
in the various states, "there is an argument that these agreements
terminated and are not currently effective."

Financial Statements

General

14. In response to several of our prior comments you have
indicated
that you intend to revise your financial statements and/or notes,
but
you have not provided the proposed revisions for our review.
Please
understand that we may have further comments upon reviewing the
revisions included in your next amendment.

Note 1M, Advertising Costs, F-10

15. In response to our prior comment 63 you state that the company
does not engage in promotional allowance activity.  You further
explained in your response to our prior comment number 64 that
when
you decide to promote a product you do so with direct advertising
and
expense those costs and when you provide incentives to
distributors
and retailers you do so by reducing the sales price of the
products
sold.  However, on page 15 you state that you support your
customers
with promotional allowances, a portion of which is utilized for
marketing and indirect advertising by them.  You also make
reference
to promotional allowances payable to customers being based on the
levels of sales to such customers and that you estimate promotion
requirements or expected use of the related allowances and that
such
allowances are subject to adjustments.  Please reconcile the
disclosures on page 15 with your responses to our prior comments
63
and 64.  Note that if you do engage in promotional allowance
activity
please revise and supplementally respond to our prior comments 63
and
64.

Note 4. Intangible Assets, F-12

16. In our prior comment 65, we requested an explanation of the
nature of capitalized package design costs and requested reference
to
authoritative guidance to support the capitalization of the costs.
In your response you stated that the design costs relate to costs
incurred in creating the packing and labeling of your products.
You
did not provide a reference to authoritative guidance to support
your
capitalization.  Please note that research and development costs
should be expensed as incurred.  Research and development costs
include design.  Refer to SFAS 2.  Please revise or supplementally
advise, with reference to authoritative guidance, why
capitalization
of packaging design costs is appropriate.

Note 10. Stock Options, F-14

17. This table in this note indicates that as of June 30, 2004 you
have 72,500 options outstanding and exercisable.  On page 34 you
state that as of the date of this prospectus, 17,500 options have
been issued under the 2001 Stock Option Plan.  Please revise or
advise.

      We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and

	Notwithstanding our comments, in the event the company
requests
acceleration of the effective date of the pending registration
statement, it should furnish a letter, at the time of such
request,
acknowledging that:

?	should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
delegated
authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

?	the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to
delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not
relieve the company from its full responsibility for the adequacy
and
accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and

?	the company may not assert staff comments and the declaration
of
effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the
Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the
United States.

      Statement on Form SB-2

      SEC
      File No.: 333-120451 ~ Filed November 12,
      2004

Dear Mr.
Reynolds:

This
correspondence is in response to the comment letter of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) dated December 10, 2004
directed to the Issuer, REED’S,
INC., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”). We have underlined each of the Comments of the Commission for ease
of reference and now respond as follows:

1.     Please
tell us what consideration you have given to naming Mr.. Sharma as an
''underwriter'' within the meaning the federal securities laws. As such, he
appears to be engaged in the distribution of shares in this offering. We note in
this regard that he is both one of your directors and a registered broker-dealer
affiliated with your selling agent, Brookstreet. In fact, we note that Mr.
Sharma will receive a substantial amount of the commissions and fees you will
pay to Brookstreet as part of this offering. If Mr. Sharma is an underwriter,
then he must be named as such on the prospectus cover page, in the Plan of
Distribution, and elsewhere as appropriate.

Mr.
Sharma is not an underwriter within the meaning of federal securities laws.
While Mr. Sharma will be extensively involved in the offering, Section 2(11)
expressly excludes from the definition of an underwriter: “a person whose
interest is limited to a commission from an underwriter or dealer not in excess
of the usual and customary distributor’s or selling commission.” Mr. Sharma is
only receiving a portion of the commission to be paid to Brookstreet and as a
result he would not be considered an underwriter. Mr. Sharma will be operating
pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement between Brookstreet and the
Company. Characterizing Mr. Sharma as an underwriter would not only be
inaccurate, but it would not provide any additional information necessary to
make a fully informed investment decision. The Registration Statement contains
an extensive discussion regarding Brookstreet’s obligations and intentions
regarding its role as the underwriter in the subject offering.

Mr.
Sharma’s actions will be no more than what would be expected from a broker
extensively involved in any public offering.

2.     We
note a number of blank spaces throughout your registration statement for
information that you are not entitled to omit under Rule 430A, such as the
anticipated price range. Please note that we may have additional comments once
you have provided this disclosure. Therefore, please allow us sufficient time to
review your complete disclosure prior to any distribution of preliminary
prospectuses.
[appropriate changes are found on the Cover Pages and throughout the
document]

In
this regard, we note you have assumed an offering price of $4.00 per share in
certain sections such as the Use of Proceeds and Dilution sections. Other
sections such as the Capitalization as of June 30, 2004 were -not fully updated
to consider an offering price of $4.00.

In
response to this Comment, we have revised the Registration Statement to fill in
all spaces left blank and anticipate that the initial offering price will be
$4.00 per share. We have revised the Registration Statement
accordingly.

We
note that you have not filed a number of key exhibits, including the selling
agent agreement, various loan agreements, and the legality opinion. Please file
these exhibits with your next amendment, as we will need time to adequately
review them. We also may have further comment with respect to prospectus
disclosure after reviewing the exhibits. [All
missing exhibits are being gathered; please refer to the EXHIBIT INDEX on Page
II-7 for a complete reckoning of current exhibit status.]

In

“This
offering is a best efforts offering through our underwriter, Brookstreet
Securities Corporation. While there is no assurance, our underwriter currently
intends to apply for quotation of our common stock upon the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) quotation system. This will require that we complete
certain filings and disclosures of information to the National Association of
Securities Dealers and to the OTCBB itself. Our shares are currently not traded
on the public securities markets and even if our shares of common stock become
quoted on the OTCBB, there is no assurance that an active public market for our

Risk
Factors

[Changes
in response to Risk Factor Comments are found on Pages 3, 4, and

11.   Avoid
risk factors that could apply to any company. Generic risk factors do not
represent meaningful disclosure. Examples include:

• ''We
face risks associated with product liability claims...,'' page 4. If you have a
history of product recall, state the reason for the recall and the amount of
resultant financial loss to you. Moreover, represent whether you carry
commercial reasonable amount of insurance coverage to insulate yourself from
product liability claims. However, you do not need to disclose the dollar amount
of the insurance coverage you carry. Finally, state here that you do not
maintain product recall insurance, as you disclose on page 22.

• ''We
need to manage our growth page 5. Specify the nature of ''significant strain''
put upon your company by the growth you have experienced.

•
''Our ability to obtain needed additional financing..., page 6. Quantify your
known short-term and long-term capital requirements and disclose the time when
you anticipate you will need the additional capital.

Factors section

of your risk factors are unduly vague. Please revise to include sufficient,
specific information to assess the risk. Examples include:

[Changes

•
''The loss of our third-party suppliers or service providers...,'' page 4; and
''The loss of our third-party distributors...,'' page 4. Tell us supplementally
whether you have lost or foresee losing third-party suppliers, service
Providers, or distributors, or have experienced problems in business
relationship with them. If so, disclose the fact in the discussion under the
following two risk factor captions.

There are
multiple sources for our raw materials and for our packaging and bottling
supplies. We believe that if any one of these sources were unable or refused to
conduct business with us, that we would be successful in expeditiously

•
'''Increases in the cost of packaging for our products...,'' page 4. State the
percentage of the total expenses on manufacturing that is spent on packaging
your products. If your cost of packaging has increased substantially in the
recent years, provide quantitative information on this trend.

RE:      REED’S, INC., a Delaware corporation

Registration Statement on Form SB-2

SEC File No.: 333-120451 ~ Filed November 12, 2004

Dear Mr. Reynolds:

This correspondence is in response to the comment letter of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) dated December 10, 2004 directed to the Issuer, REED’S, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). We have underlined each of the Comments of the Commission for ease of reference and now respond as follows:

1.
Please tell us what consideration you have given to naming Mr.. Sharma as an ''underwriter'' within the meaning the federal securities laws. As such, he appears to be engaged in the distribution of shares in this offering. We note in this regard that he is both one of your directors and a registered broker-dealer affiliated with your selling agent, Brookstreet. In fact, we note that Mr. Sharma will receive a substantial amount of the commissions and fees you will pay to Brookstreet as part of this offering. If Mr. Sharma is an underwriter, then he must be named as such on the prospectus cover page, in the Plan of Distribution, and elsewhere as appropriate.

Mr. Sharma is not an underwriter within the meaning of federal securities laws. While Mr. Sharma will be extensively involved in the offering, Section 2(11) expressly excludes from the definition of an underwriter: “a person whose interest is limited to a commission from an underwriter or dealer not in excess of the usual and customary distributor’s or selling commission.” Mr. Sharma is only receiving a portion of the commission to be paid to Brookstreet and as a result he would not be considered an underwriter. Mr. Sharma will be operating pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement between Brookstreet and the Company. Characterizing Mr. Sharma as an underwriter would not only be inaccurate, but it would not provide any additional information necessary to make a fully informed investment
decision. The Registration Statement contains an extensive discussion regarding Brookstreet’s obligations and intentions regarding its role as the underwriter in the subject offering.

Mr. Sharma’s actions will be no more than what would be expected from a broker extensively involved in any public offering.

2.
We note a number of blank spaces throughout your registration statement for information that you are not entitled to omit under Rule 430A, such as the anticipated price range. Please note that we may have additional comments once you have provided this disclosure. Therefore, please allow us sufficient time to review your complete disclosure prior to any distribution of preliminary prospectuses.

In this regard, we note you have assumed an offering price of $4.00 per share in certain sections such as the Use of Proceeds and Dilution sections. Other sections such as the Capitalization as of June 30, 2004 were -not fully updated to consider an offering price of $4.00.

In response to this Comment, we have revised the Registration Statement to fill in all spaces left blank and anticipate that the initial offering price will be $4.00 per share. We have revised the Registration Statement accordingly.

3.
We note that you have not filed a number of key exhibits, including the selling agent agreement, various loan agreements, and the legality opinion. Please file these exhibits with your next amendment, as we will need time to adequately review them. We also may have further comment with respect to prospectus disclosure after reviewing the exhibits.

These are only examples, As a general matter, you should express your risk factors in more concrete tern-is with adequate, but not excessive, non-generic detail so that readers are able to clearly identify and assess the magnitude of the risk, Do not assume that investors will be able to decipher the risk..

In response to this Comment, please see the Risk Factors section of our Registration Statement.

Forward-Looking Statements, page 8

13.
The safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements is not available for an initial registration statement. In addition, such a safe harbor in not available for an initial public offering, pursuant to Section 27A(b)(2)(D) of the Securities Act and Section 2 1 E(b)(2)(D) of the Exchange Act. Delete references to Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21 E of the Exchange Act, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 here and on page 14.

In response to this Comment, we have deleted all references to this safe harbor.

Dilution, page 13

17.
With respect to the two issuances of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in October 2004 tell us what consideration was given to recognition of a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) under EITF 98-5. In this regard we note that the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitles the holder to convert into 4 shares of common stock. Based on a sale price of $10 per preferred share, the cost of each common share is $2.50. Based on the proposed offering price per common share of $4.00, it appears that the two transactions resulted in an intrinsic BCF of $1.50 per common share ($6.00 per Series A Convertible Preferred share). Please advise.

The offering price of $4.00 per share and the conversion price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of $2.50 were determined independently of one another and were determined at different times. Management does not believe the $4.00 offering price is the fair value of the common stock at the time the $2.50 conversion price was determined. The preferred stock conversion price was established on June 30, 2004, the date the preferred stockholders agreement was created by management, after discussion and negotiation with the potential preferred stockholders. The offering price is based on an offering date yet to be determined and is anticipating growth in the company from June 30, 2004 to the offering date

We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.
1. Please tell us what consideration you have given to naming Mr.
Sharma as an "underwriter" within the meaning the federal
securities
laws.  As such, he appears to be engaged in the distribution of
shares in this offering.  We note in this regard that he is both
one
of your directors and a registered broker-dealer affiliated with
your
selling agent, Brookstreet.  In fact, we note that Mr. Sharma will
receive a substantial amount of the commissions and fees you will
pay
to Brookstreet as part of this offering.  If Mr. Sharma is an
underwriter, then he must be named as such on the prospectus cover
page, in the Plan of Distribution, and elsewhere as appropriate.

2. We note a number of blank spaces throughout your registration
statement for information that you are not entitled to omit under
Rule 430A, such as the anticipated price range.  Please note that
we
may have additional comments once you have provided this
disclosure.
Therefore, please allow us sufficient time to review your complete
disclosure prior to any distribution of preliminary prospectuses.

In this regard, we note you have assumed an offering price of
$4.00
per share in certain sections such as the Use of Proceeds and
Dilution sections.  Other sections such as the Capitalization as
of
June 30, 2004 were not fully updated to consider an offering price
of
$4.00.
3. We note that you have not filed a number of key exhibits,
including the selling agent agreement, various loan agreements,
and
the legality opinion.  Please file these exhibits with your next
amendment, as we will need time to adequately review them.  We
also
may have further comment with respect to prospectus disclosure
after
reviewing the exhibits.
Registration Statement Cover Page
4. Add a sentence and a checked box indicating that the securities
are being offered on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to
Rule
415.  See, for example, interpretation D.36 of the Manual of
Publicly
Available Telephone Interpretations (July 1997) and Form S-1 to
review the disclosure that you should include.

Prospectus Cover Page
5. Please revise the second full paragraph to divide it into two
paragraphs:  one addressing the offering itself and the other
addressing the lack of a market for your shares.  The latter
paragraph also should highlight that, due to the lack of trading
market, purchasers in this offering are receiving an illiquid
security.
6. Your use of fully justified margins impedes readability.
Please
revise throughout to use only a left-justified margin.

Table of Contents
7. On the outside back cover page of the prospectus, advise
dealers
of their prospectus delivery obligation, pursuant to Item 502(b)
of
Regulation S-B.
Prospectus Summary, page 1
8. Since your summary must provide a brief, but not incomplete,
overview of the key aspects of the offering, delete the statement
that the "summary is not complete."  If necessary, provide
additional
material information in a concise manner to make the summary
complete.
9. We remind you that a summary should provide a brief overview of
you in a balanced manner.  In this regard, please add disclosure
about the following in your core summary:

* Disclose that you have significant net losses, and state the
amount
for the most recent audited and interim periods.  Also, disclose
if
accurate that you have an expectation of continued significant
losses
and inadequate cash from operations to cover operating and net
losses.

* State the percentage of your common stock being offered in this
prospectus.  Also indicate that the Reed family will hold __% of
your
shares, and as a result will exercise control over your direction.

* Explain that your shares currently are not traded on any market
or
exchange, and briefly explain how this impacts share liquidity.
Briefly explain what is required to list your shares on an
exchange
or become quoted on a market.

* State the percentage of your total sales revenues you derive
from
your products being sold at supermarkets and also at specialty
stores.

      These are only examples.  Revise accordingly.
10. Further, in the core summary, please briefly describe the type
of
offering you are conducting, and describe how the amount of
proceeds
raised will impact your ability to operate going forward.
Risk Factors
11. Avoid risk factors that could apply to any company.  Generic
risk
factors do not represent meaningful disclosure.  Examples include:

* "We face risks associated with product liability claims...,"
page
4.  If you have a history of product recall, state the reason for
the
recall and the amount of resultant financial loss to you.
Moreover,
represent whether you carry commercially reasonable amount of
insurance coverage to insulate yourself from product liability
claims.  However, you do not need to disclose the dollar amount of
the insurance coverage you carry.  Finally, state here that you do
not maintain product recall insurance, as you disclose on page 22.

* "We need to manage our growth...," page 5.  Specify the nature
of
"significant strain" put upon your company by the growth you have
experienced.

* "Our ability to obtain needed additional financing...," page 6.
Quantify your known short-term and long-term capital requirements
and
disclose the time when you anticipate you will need the additional
capital.

If you elect to retain these and other generic risk factors in
your
prospectus, you must clearly explain how they apply to your
company,
industry, offering, etc.  Please revise accordingly throughout.

12. Some of your risk factors are unduly vague.  Please revise to
include sufficient, specific information to assess the risk.
Examples include:
* "The loss of our third-party suppliers or service providers...,"
page 4; and "The loss of our third-party distributors...," page 4.
Tell us supplementally whether you have lost or foresee losing
third-
party suppliers, service providers, or distributors, or have
experienced problems in business relationship with them.  If so,
disclose the fact in the discussion under the following two risk
factor captions.

* "Increases in the cost of packaging for our products...," page
4.
State the percentage of the total expenses on manufacturing that
is
spent on packaging your products.  If your cost of packaging has
increased substantially in the recent years, provide quantitative
information on this trend.

* "There is not yet a public trading market for our
securities...,"
page 5.  Please revise to more clearly articulate what you or
market
makers must do to create a trading market for your securities, and
how long that process may take.
These are only examples.  As a general matter, you should express
your risk factors in more concrete terms with adequate, but not
excessive, non-generic detail so that readers are able to clearly
identify and assess the magnitude of the risk.  Do not assume that
investors will be able to decipher the risk.
Forward-Looking Statements, page 8
13. The safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements is not available
for an initial registration statement.  In addition, such a safe
harbor in not available for an initial public offering, pursuant
to
Section 27A(b)(2)(D) of the Securities Act and Section
21E(b)(2)(D)
of the Exchange Act.  Delete references to Section 27A of the
Securities Act, Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 here and on page 14.
14. In the last paragraph on page 9 you state that you are not
responsible for the accuracy and completeness of any forward-
looking
statements.  We remind you that are responsible for the accuracy
and
completeness of all contents of the registration statement.
Revise.

Capitalization as of June 30, 2004, page 12
15. Please revise your "As adjusted" disclosure to reflect the
10%,
50% and 100% scenarios presented throughout your filing.
16. Please delete the line-item "Other liabilities" from the
table.
Only capitalization in the form of debt and equity should be
included.

Dilution, page 13
17. With respect to the two issuances of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock in October 2004 tell us what consideration was
given
to recognition of a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) under EITF
98-5.  In this regard we note that the Series A Convertible
Preferred
Stock entitles the holder to convert into 4 shares of common
stock.
Based on a sale price of $10 per preferred share, the cost of each
common share is $2.50.  Based on the proposed offering price per
common share of $4.00, it appears that the two transactions
resulted
in an intrinsic BCF of $1.50 per common share ($6.00 per Series A
Convertible Preferred share). Please advise.
Management`s Discussion and Analysis

Overview, page 14
18. We note that you discuss certain trends and uncertainties that
may affect your business or operations, factors such as the rise
in
freight costs and increase in demand for low-carbohydrate foods.
Expand this section to discuss any other known material trends and
uncertainties that will have or are reasonably likely to have a
material impact on your revenues or income or result in your
liquidity decreasing or increasing in any material way.  For
example,
if relevant, you may discuss the evolving trends in the nature of
your competition and the consumer demands in the geographical
markets
where you compete, developments in the supermarket and health food
store retail sales trends, any increased costs in the packaging
and
advertising for a consumer products manufacturer like you, and so
on.
In doing so, provide additional information about the quality and
variability of your earnings and cash flows so that investors can
ascertain the likelihood of the extent past performance is
indicative
of future performance.  In addition, discuss in reasonable detail:
* economic or industry-wide factors relevant to your company, and
* material opportunities, challenges and risks in short and long
term
and the actions you are taking to address them.
  	Please refer to SEC Release No. 33-8350.
19. State whether the Brewery has reduced production costs and
freight costs associated with your West Coast sales since 2002,
and
provide relevant quantitative disclosure.

Critical Accounting Policies, page 15
20. You state that you evaluate your non-amortizing trademark
license
and trademarks annually for impairment and "the fair value is
calculated by reviewing net sales of the various beverages and
applying industry multiples."  Please tell us the multiples you
apply
and how you determined that those multiples were representative of
multiples used by marketplace participants.

Results of Operations, page 18
21. Discuss whether you expect revenues, operating expenses, etc.
to
increase, decrease, or remain constant, and explain why.
Similarly,
identify and discuss any industry trends or uncertainties that
will
impact your revenues, costs, etc.
22. Delete the discussion of 2002 versus 2001 results of
operations
or include an audited 2001 statement of operations.
23. Where you describe two or more business reasons that
contributed
to a material change in a financial statement line item between
periods, please quantify the extent to which each change
contributed
to the overall change in that line item, if practical.  For
example,
you provide a list of the contributing factors for the decrease in
gross margin through the first six months of 2004 but you do not
quantify the extent to which each factor impacted gross margin.
Also, you provide a list of contributing and offsetting factors
along
with percentage changes for the increase in general and
administrative expenses when comparing the year ended December 31,
2003 to the year ended December 31, 2002 however in the absence of
quantification of the dollar amounts of the expenses to which you
refer, the disclosure of percentage changes in individual cost
items
is not meaningful.  See Item 303(b) of Regulation S-B.

Liquidity and Capital Resources, page 19
24. You identify increases in receivables and inventory, offset by
an
increase in accounts payable as the primary drivers of the use of
operating cash flow.   Please expand your discussion to address
the
specific business reasons why these amounts fluctuated.  In this
regard it would be helpful to disclose the company`s days sales
outstanding, inventory turnover, or other metrics used by
management
to evaluate working capital.  Such disclosure should be
accompanied
by an explanation and analysis of any material trends indicated by
the data.  Also, you attribute the increase in receivables to the
increase in sales; however, the increase in receivables far
outpaced
the sales change on a percentage basis.  Please revise to explain.
25. Disclose the current status of your negotiations with the debt
holders of 2001 regarding the extension of the maturity date of
the
loan.  In addition, file the original and any subsequently revised
version of the loan agreement as exhibits.

Business

Founder`s Statement, page 23
26. Revise to limit the statement to salient aspects of the
offering
or your business.  Also, provide a balanced presentation of your
operations in your letter by including risks and weaknesses in
your
business and this offering.  The following is a partial list of
examples of revisions you need to make:

* Delete statements about doing "something that would be
beneficial
to the planet" and having "a deep respect for Mother Nature`s
remedies" since these statements do not add qualitatively to the
disclosure in the filing;

* Delete any unprovable statement such as many consumers of your
products buy them "for their range of benefits" because ginger has
"healing properties;"

* Provide us third-party annotated documentary evidence
substantiating your claim that your ginger ale recipe is from the
"log cabin days."

Recent Developments, page 24
27. We note the caption of this sub-section.  Please be advised
that
in disclosure documents "Recent Developments" typically denotes
events that have occurred since the most recent audited or interim
financial statements.  Change the caption to reflect that you
discuss
the history and background of your company in this sub-section.
28. Explain clearly what you mean by Reed`s Ginger Brews reaching
over 90% "placement" in natural food stores nationwide.  If, by
that
statement, you mean that 90% of the natural food stores in this
country carry your products, provide us the evidentiary basis of
your
claim.  In addition, state your current "placement" percentage.
Industry Overview, page 25
29. Provide us annotated copies of the relevant
