A few summers ago I got to visit the World of Coca Cola in Atlanta, where they have a very large tasting room with many flavors of Coke products (at least 60 were available to taste.) I am glad that some of these other flavors are going to be available for tasting at WDW. I am not sure why the Beverly is being kept in the rotation, though.

The Fanata Pineapple is the only new one I'm disappointed about being introduced. Mainly becaise I can purchase at my local grocery store. I'll miss the watermelon.

NO!!! We were guzzling the Ginger Ale just last week. It absolutely has to be the best ginger ale ever. We'll also miss the watermelon from China and the one from Mexico.

I liked the ginger ale. I was surprised. The watermelon was too sweet for me.
At least I found the cool club this visit. It was nice to sample some drinks in the A/C. Were the beverages also for sale?
And boy, was the floor STICKY!

We traveled from one end of Italy to the other. Not once did I see Beverly on a menu or on sale in a "grocery" store. I think Disney made up this aweful flavor, Italy is known for it's great food, I can't see them washing it down with this drink.
We also have family in Italy and they have never heard of it.

Watermelon was my favorite too but I have found that Sparberry is a good substitute. The description doesn't do it justice. It is very red and tastes good.

Yes you once entered though an igloo and there was a caveman frozen holding a bottle of Coke. It was called Ice Station Cool at that time I believe.
The samples are free and bottomless.

The reason I put 'very red' is because my daughter's red mustache lasted most of the way around The World Showcase!

Good to know. I guess in the end, the thing I've always liked about Epcot is getting to try new flavors. So it's goodbye to the old and in with the new. That's Epcot!

Vegitabeta is the best flavor there.....glad they didn't get rid of it. My second favorite is the now-gone Watermelon soda. The others are ok to have been replaced.

From a story on Coca-Cola's website:
"[Beverly] was introduced in Italy in 1969 as a non-alcoholic aperitif. Aperitifs are drinks that are consumed before meals and are believed to aid digestion. The 1971 ads for Beverly feature the slogan, “Cold as Helsinki, sparkling as Rio, dry as El Paso.” By 1978, the brand was popular enough to be featured in a company history of the Italian market and was available in both the “classic” and “white” versions. The brand continued to be sold in Italy battling against the bigger competitors, like Campari and San Pellegrino which also had products in that category. In 1991, Beverly “White” was chosen as one of the 16 products from around the world to be made available in the tasting area of the original World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta."
"With ongoing product consolidation in the Italian market, Beverly was discontinued in 2009. However, it is still available at the World of Coca-Cola in Atlanta."

I agree, the soda or as us Pittsburghers say "POP" needed a change.
Now lets start changing some other things in EPCOT !!!
