Icehouse Beer and Zima !!! Nasty !!

..also those "dry" beers from the late 80's such as Bud Dry, Miller Dry, Coors Dry and Michelob Dry. All terrible but living in Colorado in 1989 they were popular among the 20-something crowd. Kinda like the way cigars are today.

Ken, if you like rum & Tab then you'll love tequila & Country Time (the powdered version), a drink I created on Jan. 10, 1982.

Not coincidentally, I have not drank tequila since Jan. 10, 1982.

When I was in HS (back in the 60's) one day my friend and I found ourselves at his house after school with no parents around. "Let's get drunk" my friend said. OK, using what? He quickly ascertained that there were two open bottles of rum in his parent's liquor cabinet and that we could do some damage to each of them without making the shortfall too obvious.

One taste and we each said "We have to mix it with something". That was a problem, no mixers. The only beverage in the fridge was Tab (remember that??). So, Rum & Tabs it was. Several of them.

I think it was 30 years before I ever tried Rum again.

"Chelsea", an Anheuser-Busch product.

My ex-sister-in-law was one of the executives in charge of its test-marketing in Richmond; she had a garage full of it and it was so dreadful that she couldn't give it away! It was a low-alcohol Zima.

When I lived in South Korea, I had a habit of trying every drink I could find. So when I was in Pusan for a few days in the summer, I tried a couple of different things because of the heat, which was about 100 degrees and full humidity at midnight.

Neka. It said on the can, "Good for neck" and that had me intrigued. It should have been a warning.

Eucalyptus flavored soft drink. It tasted like a cough drop only worse. I gagged.

Oh, this isn't my first post. I was Big_TedT but my account went haywire and even the mods couldn't fix it so I got a new one.

I was in Hawaii shopping the swap meet at The Hula Bowl, not something typically done by tourists.

There was a man there with a huge machete whacking the tops off of coconuts and selling them with a free straw to the Islanders and uninformed.

I had to have one!

It was vile. I continued to drink it as I was trying to understand how everyone was walking around sipping from those nasty things. They really seemed to be enjoying them.

It was not until years later when a different man in a different place was practicing the same manuevers with his machete.

What the heck, I'd give it another go.

Delicious!

It was at that moment that I realized that I had forced myself to drink sour, spoiled, , rancid, coconut milk that probably could have ruined my trip, but somehow hadn't.

We we're at Disney last year and I was well aware of Beverly so I had my family taste it first and they all cringed. I was expecting the worst when I took a drink of it and it wasnt really that bad to me.

TEA is the worst thing i've ever put in my mouth. I'd rather listen to a room full of woman raking their fingernails on chalkboards than to have to swallow even a sip of tea.

Well, I have to go with an Indian soda called Thums Up. Nasty, to say the least. As I found out, tho it's got some serious fans, (can't, for the life of me, figure out why). It's a savory soda, doesn't even attempt to emulate anything else out there on the market.

The most recent worst soft drink I ever tried was Mountain Dew Super Nova. After about six teeth-gritting swallows, I poured it down the sink. That was enough for me.

Worst soft drink ever. Hands down it is Moxie. I made myself drink 48 cans of that stuff in a two-week period, trying desperately to like it. It never got any better. Can't say I didn't try.

But hold on! I just thought of a worse one! RC's Diet-Rite Cola. I tried it back in 1966--that's 45 years ago--and I haven't ever forgotten that wretched taste yet.

I've found that acidic and/or hot beverages always taste terrible in styrofoam cups. So I now refuse to drink anyhing in foam cups. Has anyone else noticed this?

Cliff, I'm with you about Dr Brown's CEL-REY Soda. After reading several good comments about it, I found a 6 pack at a local distributor...Yuck is the nicest thing I can say about it. The other flavors of the company, especially the Black Cherry and Root Beer are very good, but the Cel-Rey sucks big-time.

Big Red is common here in this area, while Moxie is scarce...but I enjoy them both when I can.

I've tried the Beverly soft drink that the OP mentioned at The World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta and it is truly as awful as everyone says. Can't imagine anyone would drink that on purpose. A close second would be Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray. The waiter even warned me I wouldn't like it and it only took me one sip to realize he was right. Still, I am glad it got tried once.

As for Moxie and Big Red, those are sodas I very much enjoy!

"Wretched" reminds me. I forgot all about a lime Ricky that I once had at Sonic. Now that was wretched.

I tried it and it's every bit as bad as you say. That said, I'd encourage eveyone to try. It's still an experience.

The new lemonade drinks at Long John Silvers. Wretched. (OK, OK, it's a chain, but I had a coupon for a free meal, drink and dessert.)

My vote is any diet drink (especially the colas). They all taste like turpentine to me.

Other than diet drinks, I rank Moxie next. About every five years I revisit a Moxie to see if if's a bad as I remember. It's always even worse (but not nearly as bad as a diet drink).
