Amidst a slew of other street food stops on my first trip to Yellow Springs, Ohio, Main Squeeze Juice Bar shined brightest and captured my taste buds. Just off of Xenia Avenue, in what seemed to be the cooler part of town I followed a sign into the bar and found a fun, colorful shop. 
The bar and juicing station take up most of the store area, but there are two other distinctive areas that sell a multitude of home-brewing and winemaking supplies.
The menu stressed that the juice and smoothies were all juice, all the time. No ice, concentrates or fillers. That matched a recurring theme I’d noticed from Main Squeeze in simplistic and natural confidence. The menu itself is beautiful and very user-friendly. 
I immediately managed to narrow my choices down and decided on the Blue Moon, a creamy blend of Apple Juice, Blueberries and Vanilla Yogurt. It was delicious, exactly what I wanted out of the smoothie and it definitely made me feel good to know that it was 100% the real thing. I’m sure next time I’ll have a tougher time choosing what to try, but to get a look at the menu for yourself, click here.
I wish I knew more about home-brewing and winemaking because the selection of supplies looked extraordinary and from the information I’ve learned about the owners since visiting, I’m positive Main Squeeze is one of the premier locations in the area for supplies and information. Both owners, Donna Lynn and Brian Johnson are nationally renowned brewers and winemakers. Most notably from their time as co-owners and founders of Fermentation Frenzy a home-brewing shop in Los Altos, California. I’m sure after I get more of an education on the art of home-brewing and winemaking
I’ll make another trip into Main Squeeze with a better understanding of the other parts of the shop and I suggest to all home-brewers and winemakers to stop by and check out what Main Squeeze has to offer.
