Yeah, I bought 24 cans of it with the aim of becoming a MegaCapitalist. Oh well, if I ever run out of real soda (i.e., soda other than cola), I could drink Buzz. Better yet, I can conceivably sell it to Homer if I dot the u in Buzz with an ümläüt.
<dot dot> Ah, here, try this: Büzz! From Sweden!

Like Billy Beer? So there is some guy named Buzz, and his brother is President, and he owns a gas station, he is a lobbyist for the Libyan government, and he is going to die of Pancreatic Cancer in a few years?

The difference between Buzz Cola and Billy Beer is, Billy Beer was widely available whereas Buzz Cola had a limited release.

Yeah--just about any place with Coke that's outside of the US. Always a treat when I'm abroad.
I never took you to be a cross-dresser. Hmm, interesting.

Fresca is still stocked & sold at local supermarkets (NE NJ)
Wow, I thought it went the way of Macrauchenia and sabertooth cats, but apparently it did so only on a regional basis. I cannot recall seeing it in at least 20 years (i.e., in California).
A few months ago, Loblaws here in Canada had one of those flyers that introduce new products, and one of the new items was for a soda that had that "great taste of Fresca, without the artificial flavoring" or words to that effect. The amusing part was that at least here in Montreal, the Loblaws had been carrying Fresca.
I think it only rematerialized a few years back, to be fair. It's not just at Loblaws.

We regularly buy ours at the Foster City Safeway supermarket on the San Francisco Peninsula.
It must be like Tahitian Treat, which I get at Safeway in The City, but which for some reason isn't distributed down here in Hell (So Cal). I'll have to look for it when I go to San Fran again.

It would seem the company started off in a completely different field of commerce...
