Jones Soda Co. Rolls Out Vault-Tec Official Beverage Ration

— July 3, 2026 — Marketing
Jones Soda Co. has announced the national rollout of the Vault-Tec Official Beverage Ration. This Fallout-themed 12-pack multi-flavored soda assortment is expected to arrive at club store locations across the United States and Canada. The release builds on the company's ongoing collaboration with Bethesda Softworks.

The Vault-Tec Official Beverage Ration Pack features three game-inspired flavors, including Nuka-Orange, Nuka-Victory, and Nuka-Cherry. At its core, this release brings iconic Nuka-Cola universe to life for fans of the critically acclaimed franchise, with the packaging styled to resemble the curated supplies a Vault-Tec resident might receive in the post-apocalyptic world of Fallout.

The Vault-Tec Official Beverage Ration follows strong fan engagement and sell-through of earlier Fallout-inspired products, prompting Jones Soda to expand availability through national club retail partners. The product is complemented by collectible packaging elements and is being offered alongside new four-pack options and Flavor Fan Club pricing.
