Title: Faygo in bottles Post by: G.Pope on September 06, 2008, 10:04:56 am Faygo has released their pop in 12 oz. glass bottles w/silk screened labels. It comes in 6 varieties (Redpop, Grape, Orange, RocknRye, Cream soda, Rootbeer). They come in 6 packs and are made with *cane sugar*. They retail for $4.99 a six pack. Bought some and did a taste test with the standard faygo. They are sweeter and less bitter bite than regular.
They are shaped like and labeled like the vintage bottle. Will fit perfectly in 50's style Vendo 81's. Now if we can just get all pops to go back to sugar instead of corn. Way to go Faygo.

I wonder, if people wrote them saying they liked the bottles, would that help to encourage them (and maybe others) to continue? They can't get too many emails/letters praising a product. Companies always hear the negative, but pay attention to the positive. Title: Re: Faygo in bottles Post by: Kilroy on September 06, 2008, 10:46:46 am Faygo.com lists distributors by state.
and as the Michigan SMC Mafia will attest, Faygo is good stuff Title: Re: Faygo in bottles Post by: collecture on September 06, 2008, 10:48:19 am Now if we can just get all pops to go back to sugar instead of corn. AND glass bottles! :happydrinkers: Title: Re: Faygo in bottles Post by: G.Pope on September 06, 2008, 10:56:01 am I already hit them with positive email earlier this week. :happydrinkers:
Title: Re: Faygo in bottles Post by: halehouse on September 06, 2008, 11:38:56 am I just sent them an email too.
So, just contact the distributor and see where they sell them? Title: Re: Faygo in bottles Post by: GreginNM on September 06, 2008, 11:42:35 am I'll have to check, but I'm guessing they won't find their way down here to Texas anytime soon! Who knows, Vernors is here! :drinking:

Stuff in plastic and can has a slightly bitter aftertaste at the end of a sip. The sugar pop has none! We have all been jipped by the soda manufactures. I will state that there is no better combination of Grape, Orange, and Redpop than Faygo. Bar none! And lets not even bring up RocknRye for which there is no pop that even comes close to the taste of that unique soda. 101 years and still going strong |
