Bring Back Zima

Bring Back Zima

Target:
MillerCoors Brewing Company
Sponsored by: 

We, the faithful imbibers of Zima (as well ad Zima Citrus, Zima, Tangerine, and Zima Gold) since 1993, are hereby petitioning the MillerCoors Brewing Company to reconsider its controversial decision to discontinue the manufacture and distribution of this fine malt beverage.


We proud and intrepid Zima drinkers have managed to look past Zima's ill-advised, credibility-killing "Zomething Different" advertising campaign of the early '90s; have resisted switching from Zima to more popular "malternative" beverages like Smirnoff Ice and Mike's Hard Lemonade; have continued to bravely drink Zima in public despite catcalls of "it zucks!" and "tastes like zhit!" from smart-alecky fellow bar patrons; and have even realized that Zima is an excellent (and much more potent) substitute for tonic water in various cocktail recipes. For our devotion to this oft-unfairly-maligned alcopop beverage, we deserve to be able to continue enjoying its fresh citrus essence and bubbly effervescence.


We therefore ask MillerCoors to at least allow Zima to remain available for sale online and in specialty liquor stores such as BevMo.

PLEASE bring back Zima!!!!!!!! I have NEVER enjoyed a drink as much as I have Zima...and I truly miss the taste. There IS no substitute. I have been drinking it for over 10 years, never anything else, and although I have tried other beverages, I have found nothing that compares to the taste. Please consider bringing it back to those of us who have supported your product for so many years. My friend and coworkers miss your product and would be regular consumers if it was brought back.

It was bad enough having to get my local liquor store to bring in a few cases for me at a time, because for 2 years I couldn't find any, but now to have none forever - it is a travesty!

As a kid, I remember standing around on the playground in my Chicago Bulls Starter Pullover, dreaming of the day that I could stand around in my Chicago Bulls Starter Pullover AND hold a delicious ice cold Zima in my hand. Or do a Zima bong. Or make some kind of Zima / Boku / Clearly Canadian mixer. Either way, our 1994 Party is going to go dry (of Zima) quickly without your help. Please bring it back!!!

I have what i believe the largest privately owned ZIMA collection in existance....12 six packs of lemon and 3 bottles of orange! This stuff is hillarious, bring it back so we have something 1994 to serve at our 1994 party! Illinois liquor stores have been picked clean by the Shaunthony's crew. Holla!
