Revenue for the 2007 fiscal year was $6.1 million, a 278% increase over the $1.6 million in revenues for the year ended April 30, 2006. The Company is on track to ship 100,000 cases of Trump Super Premium Vodka in the first 12-month period ending in November 2007. As of the end of the fiscal fourth quarter, the Company shipped $5.2 million, or 46,000 cases of Trump Super Premium Vodka. Subsequently, the Company has shipped new 50 ml and 1.75 liter sizes. Drinks Americas is extending the line with Trump Super Premium Vodka flavors in the second fiscal quarter. These flavors will include lemon, orange, raspberry, grape and one to be determined. The Company is waiting on governmental approvals for product formulation and labels.

Gross margin increased for the year to 41.1% compared with 28.2% for the same time last year. This was driven by a higher sales mix of alcoholic products, mainly Trump Super Premium Vodka, as well as cost of goods improvements across the entire portfolio.

SG&A expenses increased 109% to $10.0 million compared with $4.8 million for the same period last year. These expenses include a one-time $4 million investment in the launch of Trump Super Premium Vodka.

Net loss for the 2007 fiscal year was $9.4 million, or $0.14 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $5.8 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share for the fiscal year ended 2006. In addition to the impact of the Company's investment in the third quarter launch of Trump Vodka, there were additional one-time non-cash charges of $1.8 million related to the retirement of debt as well as the conversion of debt into equity.

Revenue for the fiscal 2007 fourth quarter increased 65% to $826,000 compared with $502,000 for the fourth quarter of last year. The fourth quarter reflects the seasonal shift from alcoholic to non-alcoholic beverages, with higher shipments of Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices and Waters as the result of a national marketing expansion.

Shipments of Trump Super Premium Vodka's new 1.75 liter product were delayed as a result of production issues related to the complexities of bottle engineering and design. The Company has since produced 12,000 cases of inventory, and is now shipping to the U.S. market.

J. Patrick Kenny, President & Chief Executive Officer of Drinks Americas, stated, "Our fiscal 2007 was a year of transition from a development stage to commercialization phase of our business. Our strategic positioning in 2006 to strengthen our balance sheet, develop national distribution for Trump Super Premium Vodka and Newman's Own, and launch a national sales and marketing campaign, all laid the groundwork for several promising initiatives announced in the first two quarters of 2007, including our Trump Super Premium Vodka flavor extensions and our landmark partnership with Interscope Geffen A&M Records."

Mr. Kenny continued, "Our goal is to build a major beverage company with an enormous collection of premium beverages with global distribution and marketing resources, creating highly valuable brand assets in a well-balanced product portfolio. Trump Super Premium Vodka and Willie Nelson's Old Whiskey River Bourbon are already very valuable by industry metrics."

Gross margin in the fourth quarter 2007 was 18.7% compared with 34.0% in the fourth quarter of 2006. The decline is attributed to a change in the sales mix, as Newman's Own products are sold at significantly lower margins compared with the Company's alcoholic brands.

SG&A expenses in the fourth quarter 2007 were $2.5 million compared with $1.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase is mainly due to marketing and advertising expenditures related to Trump Super Premium Vodka.

Net loss for the fourth quarter was $1.8 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $2.4 million, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2006.

First quarter and early second quarter 2008 highlights include:



--  Signed joint venture with Interscope Geffen A&M Records, part of
   Universal Music Group, the largest record company in the world.
--  Announced the upcoming launch of Trump Super Premium Vodka flavors in
   fiscal second quarter.
--  Trump Super Premium Vodka awarded a four-star rating from pre-eminent
   reviewer F. Paul Pacult's Spirits Journal, one of the most respected and
   independent authorities in evaluating spirits products.
--  Commenced shipping Trump Super Premium Vodka 1.75 liter size to all
   major markets.
--  Trump Super Premium Vodka sold to over 50,000 outlets, including both
   retail chains and on-premises accounts. All distributors in key markets
   have reordered.
--  Willie Nelson's Old Whiskey River Bourbon marketing program in Florida
   driving $150,000 in incremental sales 50% ahead of last year.
--  Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices & Waters growing at 150% versus
   last year.
--  Drinks Americas premium wine business shipped $350,000 or 203%
   increase from last year.

Fourth quarter 2007 business highlights include:



--  Signed agreement with prominent Hollywood producers for cross-
   marketing and product placement of Drinks Americas' beverages in movie and
   television productions.
--  Announced the start of the company media and promotional plan for
   Trump Super Premium Vodka to drive sales with consumer pull-through
   programs.
--  Added Trump 24K Super Premium Vodka bottle with 24 karat gold label
   and pre-sold 1,000 cases to distributors for premium clubs and key luxury
   accounts.
--  Elected new board member, Hubert Millet, who brings extensive global
   branding expertise from Seagram's to maximize the Drinks Americas'
   international growth opportunities.
--  Added and commenced shipping of 50 ml 'mini' bottle of Trump Super
   Premium Vodka.

Mr. Kenny concluded, "As we continue into our fiscal 2008, we are extremely excited with our joint venture with Interscope Geffen A&M Records, part of Universal Music Group, the largest music company in the world. Partnering with an established leader in a multi-billion dollar industry, it represents a landmark achievement for Drinks Americas. With limited investment on our part, we gain access to their enormous resources and marketing power that will result in accretive initiatives to fuel our revenue growth. The marketing of iconic partners accelerates consumer acceptance and further broadens channels of distribution.

"As a result of our partnership, we are in discussions with several of their artists and expect to reach a formal agreement shortly for the first of many new products. We are currently exploring the premium, high margin, large global growth categories, including the ultra and premium cognac and tequila category and the premium beer and craft beer segment and the non-alcoholic category where we can leverage under the cap resources. Looking over the longer term, we expect to launch up to four product initiatives in partnership with Interscope.

"As we continually evaluate the best uses of our capital, we also plan to be opportunistic with acquisitions. Our acquisitions strategy is targeting accretive EBITDA at a favorable multiple, combined with a scalable business opportunity to accelerate our introduction of premium beverages with global icons. We know these opportunities exist."

J. Patrick Kenny, President & Chief Executive Officer of Drinks Americas, stated, "We are pleased and excited to introduce our Trump Super Premium Vodka 1.75 liter bottle, which further leverages our Trump trademark, one of the most well-known and widely recognized in the world. As the largest bottle in our Trump product line, distributors recognize its sales potential based on the product's exceptional smooth taste and distinctive package design. We now offer 'The World's Finest Super Premium Vodka' in four sizes."

The Trump Super Premium Vodka 1.75 liter size bottle will be targeted for back-bar displays and on-premise promotions across all major markets throughout the U.S. The brand is currently available in 46 states, covering 15,000 on-premise accounts and over 50,000 off-premise retail accounts, including liquor stores and supermarkets.

Mr. Kenny concluded, "Heading into the peak holiday season, we expect strong revenue growth across our Trump product line throughout our current fiscal second quarter and upcoming third quarter. Revenue of $400,000 for initial shipments on the 1.75 liter bottle alone represents nearly 50% of our recently reported revenue for our fiscal fourth quarter of 2007. With the product's growing success and awareness, we continue to expand our market reach across all points of distribution on the consumer level. We look forward to begin extending our Trump Super Premium Vodka line with a selection of five flavors later this quarter."

Trump Super Premium Vodka is on track to ship 100,000 cases in its first 12-month period ending November 2007. Drinks Americas recently reported record revenue results for its 2007 fiscal year, which ended April 30, 2007. Revenue for the year was $6.1 million, a 248% increase over its 2006 fiscal year.

J. Patrick Kenny, President & Chief Executive Officer of Drinks Americas, stated, "We continue to build tremendous momentum in our markets. As a result, we continue to achieve year-over-year record revenue as we drive the value of our premium icon brands. The launch of Trump Super Premium Vodka has been a dramatic success, as has Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices and Water as we expand nationally. Our results are beginning to reflect the opportunity we now have to put the capital we raised earlier in the year to work, fueling our growth.

"Equally important and growing are Drinks Americas' bourbon, tequila, rum and wine businesses. All of these products are in a position, with both inventory and promotional support, to contribute to our revenue growth over the coming quarters."

Gross margin in the first quarter fiscal 2008 was 35.9% compared with 36.3% in the first fiscal quarter of 2007. The slight decline is attributable to the success of Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices and Waters, which seasonally increased in volume, and due to expansion represent greater mix of sales than last year.

SG&A expenses in the first fiscal quarter 2008 was $2.0 million compared with $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2007. The increase is mainly due to the final Trump Super Premium Vodka one-time launch costs

SG&A expenses declined 18% from the prior quarter further representing the conclusion of the launch phase of Trump Super Premium Vodka.

Net loss for the first fiscal quarter was $1.6 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $0.8 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2007.

First Quarter 2008 Highlights:



--  Signed joint venture with Universal's Interscope Geffen A&M Records to
   develop and market beverage products and provide Drinks Americas' current
   portfolio with substantial marketing resources.
--  Announced the upcoming launch and commenced production of Trump Super
   Premium Vodka flavors in fiscal second quarter.
--  Trump Super Premium Vodka awarded a four-star rating from pre-eminent
   reviewer F. Paul Pacult's Spirits Journal, one of the most respected and
   independent authorities in evaluating spirits products.
--  Commenced shipping Trump Super Premium Vodka 1.75 liter size to all
   major markets.
--  Sold Trump Super Premium Vodka to over 50,000 outlets, including both
   retail chains and on-premises accounts.  All distributors in key markets
   have reordered.
--  Expanded Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices and Waters nationally.

Early Second Quarter 2008 Highlights:



--  Willie Nelson's Old Whiskey River Bourbon growing 50% ahead of last
   year incremental shipments of $160,000 in September, driven by expanding
   1.75 liter sales in targeted markets.
--  Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices & Waters growing at 150% versus
   last year.
--  Drinks Americas' premium wine business sales of $350,000 or 203%
   increase from last year.
--  Pre-production orders for Drinks Americas' new Aguila Tequila Silver
   and Anejo added to the Reposado selection of approximately 600 cases.

Mr. Kenny concluded, "Our entire portfolio of beverages, spirits, wine and non-alcoholic offerings are all growing, as we are managing our expenses and ensuring our margin requirements are met while benefiting from our Iconic marketing model."

Mr. Kenny further added, "In our short history we have established three national brands; Trump Super Premium Vodka, Old Whiskey River Bourbon, and Newman's Own Sparkling Fruit Juices & Waters. In this current quarter we are seeing an increase in orders for our Tequila and Rum as well. In the coming year we will continue to scale up by beginning to execute our joint venture plans with Universal Music Group's Interscope, Geffen A&M Records, and taking advantage of the other resources and avenues available to us with our Icon branding model to continue to grow and expand the Company."

More information on the Company's quarterly results can be found in its 10-Q filing with the SEC.

eine schöne rosige Zeit für die Zukunft an alle,hier geht nichts mehr schief

GOOSE COOKED September 17, 2007 -- TRUMP Vodka trumped Grey Goose in recent reviews in the Spirit Journal, the bible of the booze business. Trump's hooch received four out of five stars because it "finishes elegantly, oily/creamy, and snack cracker like." Grey Goose, which 10 years ago also received four stars, has now been downgraded to just two. "Drinkable, but a mere shadow of when it burst on the scene in the late 1990s," the review said. A spokes woman for Bacardi, which owns Grey Goose vodka, said that the formula hadn't been altered in any way. "This is a matter of different tastes for different people," she said.

"I'm always down for a new challenge," said Dr. Dre. "When Drinks Americas approached me about going into business with them, I knew there was a lot of competition out there but it was the same way when I started doing music. I'm going to put the best product out there, because that's what I do."

J. Patrick Kenny, President & Chief Executive Officer of Drinks Americas, stated, "This is the next of several steps as Drinks assembles a range of global iconic brands and trademarks that will build substantial long term shareholder value. We are thrilled to be working with Dr. Dre, a true icon, as an owner and our partner in brands that will reflect his tastes and personality. Unlike hiring a celebrity to help grow an existing brand, Dr. Dre is an equity owner of the brands and will be involved as our partner at every stage of the process."

Kenny added, "We expect Dre's foray into the beverage business to rival the magnitude of his success in the music business. Our plan is to be in key markets as 2008 unfolds with a superior cognac followed by selected premium spirits category entries. We have the credit facilities and production partners. Building volume with these products will take time, but the instantly recognizable branding, coupled with superior quality products, and Dre's partnership start us with a competitive advantage, and a corresponding boost in value to our shareholders."

13:10 17.06.08

35% through the last 12 months through April 30th Old Whiskey River Bourbon to join National Barbeque Associations as Corporate Sponsor

WILTON, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Drinks Americas Holdings, Ltd (OTC BB: DKAM), a leading owner, developer and marketer of premium beverages, today announced that sales of its Old Whiskey River Bourbon business are tracking 48% ahead of last year.

Drinks has shipped more than $500,000 in Bourbon sales through April 30th 2008, an increase of more than $120,000 over last year. Shipments through the first quarter of the new fiscal year are continuing to show growth, tracking ahead 60% versus last year, with $55,000 in sales having shipped in May and early June.

J. Patrick Kenny, President and CEO of Drinks Americas, stated, Drinks Americas is seeing the results of focusing on promotion of Old Whiskey River in Florida and Texas. Our targeted approach is beginning to pay off shown in growing case volume and revenue. We see this business as tracking toward becoming an increasingly significant component of our overall business in fiscal 2009, with continued near and long term growth.

Drinks Americas plans on continuing to drive this growth by bringing together the American tradition of whiskey, music and barbeque through Old Whiskey River Bourbon Barbeque sponsorships.

Drinks Americas has joined with the Florida Barbeque Association to become an Official Corporate Sponsor. Willie Nelsons Old Whiskey River, 6 Year Old Bourbon will be the sponsor of the Invitation Only, Florida Barbeque Triple Crown contest in December hosted by the Florida Barbeque Association. This promotion will highlight barbeque cooking with Old Whiskey River in Florida, Alabama and Georgia. The company is developing similar programs in Texas and California.

About Drinks

Sales of Newmans Own All Natural Lightly Sparkling Fruit Drinks and Waters have increased $0.2 million from fiscal 2006 (33% aggregate or 15% annual growth). The Company has expanded distribution of Newmans Own across the country, and volume is increasing. The Newmans business continues to provide an expansion platform for the Companys planned addition of non-alcoholic beverage brands to be distributed nationally.

The Company has completed the development, formulation, packaging and branding for the first spirits products arising out of its joint venture with Universals Interscope Geffen A&M Records. It is anticipated that the first of these products, a premium cognac through the Companys venture with music icon Dr. Dre and his Aftermath Beverage Company, will be introduced to the market within the next sixty days.

With respect to the production and supply of the Aftermath Cognac, the Company has entered into a letter of intent for the production, supply and European distribution of the cognac with Abecassis Cognac, a producer of premium cognacs. Completion of this agreement will not only give the Company access to a superior and necessary inventory of fine cognac, but calls for the Aftermath Beverage Company brands to be distributed by Abecassis in the European countries in which it is now doing business.

Following the introduction of the Aftermath Cognac, the Companys joint venture with Interscope/Dre/Aftermath will introduce a unique new line of 80-proof flavored and unflavored sparkling vodkas. The Company, having completed any necessary formulations, bottle and label design, marketing plans, and regulatory approvals, expects that this new line of products will begin to be shipped to distributors within the next sixty days. These products are to be introduced in coordination with the launch of Dr. Dres long-awaited Detox album, and will be supported by a fully integrated marketing program with the performer and his record company.

The Company has taken note of apparent customer anticipation for the Companys Aftermath line of alcoholic beverages as evidenced by over one million Google mentions in advance of any actual product availability in the marketplace.

The Company continues to focus substantial efforts to expand the distribution of its iconic beverages on an international basis. Distribution and marketing ventures are currently being negotiated with significant distributors in China, India and Europe.

J. Patrick Kenny, CEO of the Company, stated, Drinks Americas has continued to deliver consistent organic growth, creating valuable iconic trademarks with sales volume up 108% on a quarterly basis. Our marketing resources are more robust with our current and imminent product offerings and sales, and our continued reductions in costs. Our management team has continued to streamline costs while maintaining margins. Our strategy of creating premium branded beverages in partnership with icons continues to prove its foresight and long term viability, with great brand value creation enhanced by reduced capital requirements and favorable production and supply contracts. We have demonstrated that we can place quality brands in the market quicker and more cost effectively, with instant brand recognition, on a domestic and international basis, leading to accelerated sales. This, in conjunction with great product and beautiful packaging, will assure our future.

Comparison of Year Ended April 30, 2008 to April 30, 2007

Net sales for the fourth quarter fiscal 2008 aggregated $1.2 million compared to $0.8 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, an increase of over 40%, and an increase of 108 % over our third quarter ending January 31, 2008 . Net sales were $4.5 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 compared to net sales of $6.1 million for the year ended April 30, 2007. The launch of Trump Flavored Vodka and Trump Vodka international sales, both in February 2008, enhanced our growth in the fourth quarter. The launch and national pipeline fill-in of Trump Super Premium Vodka in October 2006 accounted for the accentuation of sales of the product in the prior year.
Net sales of Trump Vodka for the fourth quarter fiscal 08 rose 244% versus the prior quarter fiscal 08, and 101% versus the fourth quarter of the prior year fiscal 07. Sales of Trump Vodka were $2.7 million for this year. The prior year volume was influenced by the sell in, launch and pipeline fill of distributor inventory of Trump Vodka.
Net dollar sales for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 were comprised 59 percent from Trump Vodka sales (including sales of Trump Flavored Vodkas), 10 percent from Old Whiskey River Bourbon, 3 percent from Aquila Tequila, 4 percent from Damiana Liqueur, 9 percent from our international wines, and 15 percent from Newmans Own Sparkling Fruit Drinks and Sparkling Waters. Net sales for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007 were comprised 76 percent from Trump Vodka, 6 percent from Old Whiskey River, 3 percent from Damiana Liqueur, 6 percent from international wines, and 9 percent from Newmans Own products.
For the year ended April 30, 2008, net sales of Old Whiskey River increased 32 percent over the prior year ($452,000 compared to $342,000); net sales of our international wines increased 5 percent ($392,000 compared to $373,000); net sales of our Damiana Liqueur increased 12 percent ($197,000 compared to $175,000); Aguila Tequila increased 520 percent ($133,000 compared to $21,000); and Newmans Own products increased 33 percent ($667,000 compared to $500,000).
Gross margin for our wine and spirits business remained within our target of 40.7 percent for this fiscal year compared to 42.6 percent for the prior year. Gross margin for our non-alcoholic business was 21.8 percent for this fiscal year compared to 24.0 percent for the prior fiscal year. The Company successfully mitigated the impact of (i) the weakness of the dollar versus the Euro, (ii) the increase in glass cost of goods, (iii) and the occurrence of rising fuel costs, by (a) its aggressive moves in transferring spirits product glass production to China, (b) modifying bottle formats on our Newmans business, and (c) executing strategic price increases and reducing price supports. These factors, combined with volume discounts and further manufacturing and sourcing improvements, will enable the Company to achieve continuously improving profit margins for all its brands.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses totals declined 20% to $8.0 million for the year ended April 30, 2008 compared to $10.0 million for the year ended April 30, 2007.
Costs are expected to continue to decrease further in fiscal 2009 as we reach normalized selling and marketing spending levels. The marketing leverage the Company has with Dr. Dre and Universal/Interscope and its additional favorable strategic production partners will further drive costs per case downward.
Interest expenses were reduced $604,000 versus last year. Interest expense was $164,000 for fiscal 2008 compared to $771,000 for last fiscal year.
Net loss for the fiscal year was $6.3 million, or $0.08 per share, compared to a net loss of $9.4 million, or $0.14 per share, for last fiscal year.
Mr. Kenny concluded, Utilizing our iconic branding strategy, Drinks Americas continues to create valuable global trademarks in the beverage category with far more efficient and targeted investment than would normally be required. This, coupled with the right strategic partners, prudent domestic and international expansion, and continued improvement of our financial performance, makes us a unique and exciting industry player.

More information on the Company's annual results can be found in its 10-KSB filing with the SEC.
