I miss Fruity Tokens and Sugus.

Agree. I found some tokens at Checkers. They were damn expensive. Probably imported. Haven't seen them there for a while.

Who remembers Virgin Cola .......Ster Kinekor promoted them heavily in the mid 90's but it never took off and disappeared from the SA market, Coke is too entrenched.

Just another failed, over hyped Branson project, like jeans, cinemas, rail etc.... Just because it says Virgin it will fly. Ja right.

 

Yup the Pammy bottle was another failed one.

 

If I remember correctly,  My mate worked for them when they tried here.

[HeyYou]

I know these were early 70s. Varsity and beer, synonymous!!!! The resulting price war between Luyt Breweries and SAB almost cost me a couple of years at Varsity!!!

 

How come I remember the beer????

 

 

[HeyYou]

Anyone remember this beer????

 

[HeyYou]

Anyone make the trip in 1988????

 

[Paul Ruinaard]

Anyone make the trip in 1988????

 

No and I am still regretting it.

 

one of my personal bugbears. I have been wanting to see him for years and have missed him every time. Now looking at going to New York - except the Broadway shows tickets are $1200 a throw.

 

It was allegedly one of his best concerts.

Sportsmans Lager,

 

Colt 45,

 

All these were Intercontinental Breweries brands,  my buds dad worked for them so we at 14 years old used to get free beers. He used to get like 4 cases a week.

 

We stole about a case a week and used to act tough with all our buds that we smaaked it. Tasted terrible at that age but none of us would blink or admit we weren't hard .

Yah, remember them well, I was very fond of another of Louis Luyt's beer's "Kronenbrau 1308" in fact at the time its the only brand I was drinking. Not so fussy now though.!
