First of all....please...DO NOT use the <blink> tag in mesages.  The simple word warning is enough.

Vivungs made an excellent version of Gotlandsdricka until the shut down.  I'm not sure what you mean by 'modernized' vs 'traditional' but the end result was really a special treat.

Was there ever a 'soda version' produced or do you mean the lighter 'folköl' version.  Last time I visited Gotland which was in '97 before the shut down I didn't see any 'soda version' anywhere.
Could you please tell me more about it ?
