Surprisingly enough, Shasta >Cola tastes much more like the Real Coke than New Coke. This is an quite interresting fact. Probably thers is quite a large market turning up due to the Coke. A swedish brewery will on Monday start to produce "XL Cola" (stupid name). The whole idea behind it is that XL Cola is said to taste like the Old Coke. Time will show if they'll succeed. Anyway, they are surely not alone with that idea. So for any do dislikes the new Coke (actually I haven't tasted it, it has - thank God - not come to Sweden yet) it might be a good idea of trying any obscure local Cola-drink.
