You want Zima? You must go to Japan. Cherry Blossom Zima awaits you. | ||

Alea iacta est |
I actually had a few Zima back in the day. My memories of it were pretty good. It was a lot better than Miller Genuine Draft, that all my friends were drinking. The “lol” thread | |||

Drill Here, Drill Now |
We were just talking about Zima yesterday. Obviously, negatively. When it came out, I fell for the marketing once. Certainly didn't fall for it twice.

I tried it once. That was enough. Currently I’m drinking a Sapporo. Very good quality beer, albeit a bit short on character. Serious about crackers | |||

Drink of choice for college girls for most of the 90s. Worked just fine for intended purposes | |||

A cohort dropped by with Zimas one nasty, hot afternoon years ago. I drank one and it still lingers as a standard of alcohol done wrong. The same guy also had a Taurus Judge and I've questioned his judgement ever since. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

Lol, nasty stuff. I was at Ft Stewart when that hurricane hit GA. We had duty so we were late to the on base packy. All that was left was 3 cases of Zima and a bottle of some off brand vodka. We bought em, held our noses and got drunk. “Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it.

Wait, what? |
Zima is basically dead. Flavored seltzer waters like Truly, White Claw, High Noon, etc are the rage now. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

I tease my brother relentlessly by telling him he's drinking "bitch beer". Me personally, I don't drink beer, only bourbon so he can't retaliate  ___________________________ No thanks, I've already got a penguin. | |||

paradox in a box |
A lot of guys do this to me when I drink seltzers. It gets old. I try to explain I will drink with or without diabetes and I’d rather without. When I make my own vodka/soda or drink bourbon no one makes fun of me but I end up completely trashed in an hour and that’s no fun for anyone. These go to eleven. | |||

| No, not like Bill Clinton  |
Had a few back in the day Bought some a couple years ago when they did a release, I think it was because it was on a show my kids liked, I believe Marvel ETA: It was Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D "bitch beer" Lady BeerThis message has been edited. Last edited by: BigSwede, | |||

OMG Welcome back high school memories. 15 and pounding a 6 pack of Zima with Boone's Farm and Everclear thinking I'm cool only to throw up all my Chinese Food in the bushes and sleep on my best friends bathroom floor. I salute you Zima! 10 years to retirement! Just waiting! | |||

frayedends, I just like ribbing the shit out of my little bro. He's far from a bitch but he doesn't need to know that. I'll bet the same is true about you. Now my middle brother on the other hand. Give him any kind of alcohol and he turns in to a bitch pretty fast.  He really needs to take up drinking O'doul's or something.___________________________ No thanks, I've already got a penguin. | |||

They're after my Lucky Charms! |
Zima Gold. First time I dumped a drink after the first sip. I did see a display of Zima in 2018 at the local Total Wine and More. My wife and I did get a laugh, did the 'remember this' moment, and went to buy other items. But in the year 2258, it will be a big seller on Babylon5...  Lord, your ocean is so very large and my divos are so very f****d-up Dirt Sailors Unite! | |||

Not really from Vienna |
Sounds like I pretty much completely missed my opportunity to try it. | |||

I was a couple years behind the curve on Zima, so it never got any attention from me. I remember it, but wasn't 'of age' at the time. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

I tried it back then when it came out. My immediate first impression was 'Zima Zucks'. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

Even back in the 80s, Zima was a punchline, a joke with my group. I tasted it once as to see the fuss and it was horrid. And I didn't know many girls who enjoyed the stuff either, even though it was known as a girl's drink. Zima was to booze like Saved By The Bell was to television.
