Surge Vs Vault - A Taste Comparison

The only place you can still find Surge is in Norway (they call it Urge). Many people have said that when Coca-Cola released Vault in 2005, it was because of a huge Internet push to bring Surge back. The argument is that Vault REALLY IS Surge, just with a different name.

I got my hands on a bottle of Urge (thanks Hans!) and set out to compare its taste with Vault. Is it the same drink, or different beasts all together? Watch and learn.

That bottle on my desk with the pump is NOT lube. I swear. It's Gern-X Hand Sanitizer. Swine Flu, you know.

The lighting could have been better. You can't really tell the difference in color between the two soda's, but I assure you, there is.

If you're a big fat soda nerd like me and are interested in the latest soda news plus discontinued, failed, or rare carbonated drinks, check out my soda blog, fizzledout.com

How come every new soda product of the last 10-15 years is marketed to the "extreme" crowd?

7 UP didn't get that memo. They seems to think the big money is on the lady-fied drinks. 7 UP Plus, 7 Up with antioxidants...

Yeah but Surge has that awesome 90's extreme look to it.
