It was good. It's hard to describe... it's kind of like a slight malt taste without any hop, but extremely clean. It's like beer with no character, but I guess that sort of was its character. I used to drink it all the time before I knew anything about good beer or wine.

I would still drink it if it was still around, not all the time, but just for nostalgia I guess.

The thought of middle aged people posting on GBS honestly scares me. How hosed up do you have to be to be that old and have the free time to post on such a lovely forum?

It's easy: you don't talk about golf, mutual funds, your goddamn kids, lawn mowers, retirement and ailments, that gives you plenty of time to browse GBS.

Being old is kind of cool.
I'm allowed to do pretty much what I want as long as I don't gently caress up.
I mostly read the forums at work as I'm in charge of supplying the funny pics and links.

It's a joke we're all playing on you called enjoy living in debt forever and working until you're 80 millennial poo poo head this empire of ours is taking a nose dive but it ain't hitting the ground until we're dead and you're still alive. Go blame the boomers or gen xers we're too busy listening to rap while in our 30s and playing Nintendo to care. Only 90s kids get to laugh at this.

What did Zima taste like?

A little bit like lemon lime St. Ides Special Brew. A bit like Mike's Hard Lemonade also. The first time I got drunk was when I was 15 and it was on a 6 pack of Zima while on a school trip to Knoxville TN. I also smoked cigarettes and pot for the first time that day.

Maybe just another light that shines
I always thought it tasted like seltzer water, but the bars I was hanging out at would put grenadine or some poo poo in it if you wanted. Or just drop in a couple jolly ranchers.

I'm a Gen Xer but I'll enjoy the laughter while I'm doing slightly older guy things. This no debt, no resposibility, 6 figure job having life isn't for everyone but it's got its upsides.

I have had Zima before but it's been a really long time. I think it was like a grapefruity sprite with a tiny bit of alcohol taste. Lots of times they would be the last things left at a party and if you wanted to keep that buzz going until sunup you did what you needed to do.

Coors, then the nation's No. 3 beer-maker, hopped on the bandwagon by devising a simple process for making a clear brew—just filter your lowest-grade lager through charcoal (a process that strips away both color and taste)

Teens say they think that the drink is harder for police and parents to spot than beer or hard liquor. Some teenagers even say that Zima can beat a Breathalyzer test.

The best thing about being old is the smug satisfaction of knowing that when all the water dries up, the world economy collapses and there's no more food I'll already be dead and you fuckers will have to suffer through it.

It's midnight. Wife and kids in bed. Been posting here for sixteen fuckin years, if you can believe that poo poo. My first account had a counterstrike tag on it.

Anyway, zima tasted like a kind of flat vodka and tonic. It was poo poo.
