This stuff's been out for about 2 years now up here - there is definitely a noticeable taste difference, but I guess it comes down to which version you grew up drinking.

If I still drank soda, I'd definitely prefer the Throwback over the current version. It's not quite as sweet, but there's something to be said for getting away from enough artificial sweetener to give the bottle cancer.

Yes Pain, it's their recipe from the 80's/90's.

Pepsi Throwback is absolute win as well.
