'sup bitches?
Soda thread?
I drank nothing but Pepsi Blue for a period of 4 months when it came out.
DAMN I haven't had this years, but is it great.
Also, Mr. Pibb/Pibb Xtra was here, Dr. Pepper can go fizzle.I can't find Pibb anywhere except smaller fast food places like Checkers & Five Guys. And the Checkers in Manhattan stopped having it on tap. :(
I miss this drink.
Gentlemen.
>>2385I'm not sure what that is but it looks pretty nice.
>>2385You just like it because it has a picture of a dog on it.Also, EXTREEEEEEEEME!
>>2392more like "GET OUT, BART. I'M PISS" amiritehave a bizarro mountain dew.
>>2392The Code Red version and Amp actually tastes pretty good. So does the Game Fuel variations.But, the original...ugh.
>>2396Mountain Dew throwback taste better.
more like mountain poo amirite
>>2399mountain dew can doo doo, but jimmy carter is smarter.
Irn Bru was here: it's made from girders, everyone else can go home. Bitches better recognize.Also, Irn Bru always has the best adverts.
>>2388Traditonally brewed english beer with a minimum of alcohol (less than .5% IIRC) with ginger ale (they brew that themselves too). It has a really unique flavour and this aftertaste of caramel that hits just when you think all the taste's gone from that sip. And by caramel, I don't mean the goop I mean the caramelized sugar taste. It's very difficult to describe. Their Curiosity Cola is even harder to describe but also very cool. Hard to find this brand in North America, though. I buy mostly from a local little Mom and Pop shop but they only carry the shandy and the godawful (I think) ginger beer.
>>2372I...I liked Crystal Pepsi when it was in the States. I think Tropical Fantasy or C&C even released a knock-off version, too.>>2397I couldn't find it in my market, only Pepsi Throwback, which tastes GREAT. Anyone else try Sprite Green? I didn't like it very much.
>>2423I liked the taste of Sprite Green but it made me sugar crash like a mofo a couple hours later. Like, way more so than most soft drinks and I can't figure it out.
>>2467Sugar crash, really? The bottle I drank wasn't too sweet, but kind of sour. The only pro I found was that I could actually taste the lemon juice used in it.Well, it does use real sugar and it's supposed to be "completely natural", so it was probably all that.
Ever heard of Fanta?
>>2474New theory: All that cane sugar tricked me into feeling full, and I may have forgotten to eat.Mystery solved.
They call it Mello Yello
>>2393I miss you, Surge. I even won one of your bucket hats in a giveaway.I also miss all the bastard offspring varieties of Mountain Dew. Livewire, Code Red... I know they still exist, but they're mighty scarce where I'm at.I also miss Gatorade Midnight Thunder...Where have all my beverages gone, dammit!?
A store near my job was selling Coke & Pepsi in those old glass bottles. Damn, I haven't seen them in this form in years.Unfortunately, it wasn't a "complete" throwback, since it still have HFCS in it.
>>3122One of the benefits of living near Mexico, cane sugar soda in glass bottles. Shall I send some up your way?
>>3123>cane sugar soda>glass bottlesFerrous, you lucky bastard. I've been looking my whole life for a place that sells that. Sadly it appears no place in Michigan does.
I had a Pepsi throwback a couple times last month when the stores near me were stocking it.I tasted no difference.
Someone peed in my sprite OP
I dislike when other countries are beating us at things we used to do well.That said, I do consider myself lucky. *cue pop cap and coke drinking sound effects*Oh yeaaaah
>>2374Dude didn't even get his degree.
>>2374Another Checkers opened up near me and they got the Pibb. All is well again.
I had Pibb last week when I went to the movies. I grabbed a soda and a milkshake from the Wendy's and was like, WTF @ no Dr. Pepper but then I saw Mr Pibb.And then I remembered that Dr. Pepper is way better than Mr. Pibb, and I got sad all over again.
I also miss when Jolt came in these cans.
>>3169Bullet can is superior.
>>3211Incorrect.
Was I the only one who drank an unhealthy amount of Fruitopia back in the day?
>>3214Nah, man. Fruitopia was awesome
>>3214For years when I was in elementary school my mom would give me a ride every day since my school didn't have buses. Every day we'd stop at Dunkin' Donuts, she'd get a coffee, and I'd get a Fruitopia. Shit was delicious.
>>3214I have never, in my life, drank one of those.
>>3214having had these, i can attest that they are the terrible cousin of snapple and capri sun.
there is not a single brand of orange cream soda available to me. its the only thing i had in the US that i haven't been able to find again.
>>3247Import some Jones Soda, guy.
>>3214Fruitopia always left a weird aftertaste in my mouth.>>3247Regular orange soda with just a touch of milk is a good approximation.
>>3253this sounds terrible but it might actuall work
>>3278Yes.
>>3278fuck yeah
>>3278>Ginger BeerWill my mouth turn into a warzone of flavor if I get one of these?
I had ginger beer once.No, sir, I did not like it.
>>3278superior
THIS IS FUCKING DISGUSTING OH GOD MY MOUTH
>>3284No. Your mouth will peaceably achieve enlightenment and rise to a higher plain of existence.>>3294I put it to you that it is because you didn't try this ginger beer. (Unless you tried home-made ginger beer by someone who really knows what they're doing, and has had a plant going for a year or two now.)
>>3213I BLAME YOU FOR THIS!!!!!!
>>3472I am willing to accept full responsibility for this excellent turn of events.
>>3480

>>3495
>>3496Feels good, man.

There's a store near my hometown that sells over 200 varieties of soda, all in glass bottles, all with cane sugar. It's amazing.
>>3542Pic related. Leninade is just one of the awesome varieties sold there.
>>3542The Soda Pop Stop in LA or The Soda Gallery in Dallas?
>>3545The Damascus General Store in Damascus, VA.
>>3557Sweet.
>>3506Just saying, no more stale battery can Jolt.
>>3580I didn't just like it for the can design, but also the ability to re-seal it after it was open. Also, the awesome *POP* sound the came when opening it for the first time.It even tastes kind of different in the new can. Ah well, I'll still buy it, though. Also, I'm hitting every store to buy out the remainder of their battery cans. Regular Cola, though, since that's the only flavor I can stomach...and the Passion Fruit, which was also discontinued, once all the Cola is gone.
SODAPOPSTOP.COM YOU ARE AWESOME
>>3582You don't like the cherry bomb?
>>3589They didn't offer that flavor at any of the stores I went to. Besides Cola, only Raspberry (crap), Passion Fruit (okay), Grape (crap), and a Sugar Free variant (fucking terrible) were offered. I tried their new flavor, Orange Burst, first time I saw the new cans; it tasted like crap.I don't like most cherry sodas, though. Except Mt. Dew Code Red.
>>3590Cherry Bomb tastes like Dr Pepper mixed with something I can't put my finger on. I personally like Cola, Cherry and Grape. Passionfruit is the bottom of the barrel for my tastebuds, but Jolt is still the best energy drink.
