It's always fun to do the Beverly challenge with friends when you're in Epcot. I don't think anybody I've visited with has ever had more than 5 cups. That's enough to make you want to give up, no matter how competitive you are.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I'm not really sure what it's supposed to be. It's a palate cleanser, so it just sort of tastes like everything and nothing all at once. If I had to pick a flavor, it's kind of like licorice, but more gross.
Originally Posted By Daannzzz I like Beverly too. After tasting it a few times while hovering around the machines you sort of get past the bitterness and it is nice to sip. It is a lite drink with a hint of sweetness and a sharp bitter aftertaste. As you can see it takes a second or two for it to register with people.

Originally Posted By magic0214 Yeah it is! I'm from Maine and that's where Moxie is made...it kind of gives our food a bad rep...lol
Originally Posted By Daannzzz I ordered some Moxie form Hometown Favorites and thought it was a bit more mild than Beverly. I liked it too. It has a bit more flavor to it than Beverly. I drank the whole 6 pack but have not ordered more.

Originally Posted By trekkeruss <<Having never tried Beverly, what is it?? What is its "flavor" supposed to be???>> I haven't had it in years, but the closest way to describe it is a grapefruit-like taste. It's not really a soda for drinking by itself; I believe it is sold as an apéritif.
Originally Posted By EPCOT Explorer >>>Okay I want everyone to go look for a soda called Moxie...and you thought Beverly is bad!<<< Funny, I like that stuff, too! Different tastes, I guess.
