4. Zima was the butt of a lot of jokes at the time

I knew someone who tried it once--and couldn't stop ragging on it. Nice T-shirt!

5. Were they planning this press release for April 1?

I was an 80s high schooler myself; our entry-level drink was Bartles & James...

6. Is that like Mad Dog?

MD 20/20 the drink of the 70's

10. No, it was a clear malt drink with roughly the same alcohol content of beer

It tasted a bit fruity. I can see why they might try bringing it back. There are a lot of "hard" drinks out there. Hard cider, lemonade, root beer, etc.

13. It tasted like a Sprite with vodka in it.

The ladies loved it. Guys didn't want to be seen drinking it.
