An ad specifically targeting doctors in a WWI medical training camp brochure touted Reif's Special as a healthy alternative to soft drinks, also highlighting that it was made in a very clean & sterile facility. In another ad in the Atlanta Journal it advertises itself as a non-alcoholic alternative to beer. Cereal beverages are similar to beer in that they are made of a cereal grain but they were usually had very low alcohol content. Is it a soft drink? It was 0.49% alcohol... It did not go out of production in 1920 after the Prohibition act, though, as there is a mention of it in the Atlanta Journal in 1921. Reif's Special seemed to peak in 1916-1919 based on the mentions in various newspapers. The Purity company went out of business in 1933.
