Here in the Utah we have soda shops that exist just to put more sugar and syrup in soda. It's mormon crack and loving disgusting.

if you deny yourself the small pleasures stronger perversions become manifest.

For all my ginger soda drinkers, I submit Ale-8-One.



If you're ever passing through Kentucky, get this poo poo. I've also seen it in the regional/independent/unique soda section at Cracker Barrel, but I don't know if every store has it.

Also, I will loving fight you if you drink it out of anything but the green glass bottle. Ale-8-One from a plastic bottle, can or fountain is not Ale-8-One. Ale-8-One is served in a god damned green glass bottle.

Is it pronounced "ale, eight, one," or "a late one?" The bottles do say "A Late One," but I've never heard anyone call it "A Late One." It is loving ALE EIGHT ONE, but if you're ordering it at a restaurant, just say "I'll have an Ale-8."

have to look for that one next time i go to the candy/soda speciality shop. and yeah, glass bottles will always be superior. my grandfather was the manager for a string of bars so he had a hook up for these glass bottle sodas to bring home and i'd always have glass bottle cokes and dr. peppers when i went over there.

Bawls, Shug Free bawls, cherry bawls, root beer?

right now looks like they just have 3: regular, cherry, and guarana ginger.

they have cheerwine which is a fave but these days i try to avoid sugar soda except on special occasions (like the upcoming sprecher tasting) so i wish they would sell sugar free cheerwine.

Hell yeah dude

I guess I never had dimetapp as a kid cos I haven't ran into a grape soda I didnt like

i was a kid with really bad allergies and my mom was constantly dosing me with that poo poo, i'm still overcoming my aversion to artificial grape flavoring to this day. found some grape flavor chewing gum that i actually liked not too long ago, quench gum which i got cuz i read it was supposed to be similar to the gatorade gum from olden times. maybe i'm finally working through it. living, laughing, learning, it's a process.

quote:

In summary, Brain Wash Red Carbonated Drink:

has a unique ominous theme with matching slogans on the bottle
is a red liquid with noisy carbonation
tastes like club soda with bitter oranges, capsicum, jalapeno, lime, sage rub, and pepper

have to keep an eye out for this when i go to sodypop/candy store next.
