I never tried one. I was locked in as a beer nerd/snob by then.

I think I still have one in my fridge from their limited release a couple years ago.

Oooooffff, my college days.....I preferred its competitor, Taos. What did I know, it was the world of clear products, Mickey's and Keystone

Ah, Zima. Fun times in the dorm. Had a friend who would only drink Zima. It was a twist off so I poured out a bit of one bottle and replaced it with gin. The look on his face when he cracked it and got a swig of gin was priceless.

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!
Same. Just not at the same time. Only tried it a few times, but when you were in highschool you needed to make sure you had some zima and jolly ranchers on hand for parties.

Used to come with a tampon in the 90s. Against my religion to drink it, or not make fun of anyone who did. Including girls.

To be fair, that's a very low bar!

In the early 90's college girls liked it more than beer but you couldn't buy it in IL. So the guys would make a run to IN to get it. It was mild and tasted like 7up with less sweetness.
Better than MD 20/20 because it didn't cause technicolor puke stains on the carpet.

I picked this promotional item up back in college and has managed to stay with me all these years. Wonder if its worth anything.

IIRC it tastes like rotten lemonade….
Yeah nahh, only took one for me to figure it out. As a young sailor I spent plenty of money on trying to get girls inebriated, and Zima wasn’t it. Boone’s farm worked in High School, but Zima was a no go.

^^^ In the end, wine is best for women. It's sophisticated and acceptable. White wine for the lighter tases, red for the more passionate ones. 2-3 glasses is enough.

This is the most accurate flavor description of Zima I ever heard.

Wow, that brings back some weird 90's memories
IIRC it tasted like crappy Fresca which tasted crappy to begin with.

Telling someone that they drink Zima is one of my favorite cut-downs...

Zima was at the forefront of the whole clear products craze in the 90's. I remember coming home from leave in Germany in 1994 and seeing Clear Pepsi and thinking "WTF?"
Apparently Clear = Superior during this craze. So stupid
Even SNL mocked it!

Don’t judge me but I used to drink Zimas during drama class in highschool. It was for the girls LOL
