Tiger Red was by far my favorite soda in the late 70's. It was a little like Nehi Cream soda, but smoother. Wish it was still around.

Tiger Red was my Favorite as well and I tell my kids about it all the time. I wish it was still around so that I could share it with them. Thinking about Tiger Red brings back lots of good memories about my childhood.

OH MY GOD! I CAN'T BELIEVE ANYONE STILL REMEMBERS THIS SODA! I STILL REMEMBER HOW AWESOME THIS DRINK WAS! I TOO, STILL TELL EVERYONE HOW GREAT IT WAS AND WISH ALL THE TIME THAT IT WAS BACK. I WISH THAT SOMEONE WOULD REMAKE THIS STUFF! GLAD TO BE IN SUCH GOOD COMPANY. IF ANYONE EVER FINDS ANY OF THIS DROP ME A LINE... CHUCKCRAFT177@YAHOO.COM

I too remember Tiger Red Soda! My Father & Grandfather owned a Key Market store in southern Illinois. I can remember Dad bringing home Tiger Red in 12oz. bottle's & rotiserie chicken. Talk about two taste that I'll never forget. This was back when I was 3 years old in 1969. I'm 41 now and wish that it would be for sale, No Big Red is not Tiger Red. Its not even close!

Back in the mid '70s I would go down to my grandparents farm in northeastern Kentucky. Nothing to do but play with the horses & dogs and to fish all day. After a hot summer afternoon at the farm pond fishing, my cousins and I would walk to the little 'Mom & Pop' store (named "Peco's") next door to the farm and each buy a bottle of Tiger Red. No plastic bottles then or twist-off caps. Just the cold, heavy glass bottle of refreshing Tiger Red in your hand. When you finished you always wished there was just a little bit more. We'd stash the bottles in a bush on the farm so the next time we went to Peco's we could each pick up one of the bottles and turn it in at the store for a 5 cent discount (deposit refund) on our next Tiger Red. I would easily pay $50 for a bottle now, just to take me back to 'the day' for a few blissful minutes.

I loved this soda as a kid! I grew up in ky, and we loved this soda SO much! Our favorite treat was a tiger red and vanilla ice cream soda.

I grew up in KY, too, but left in 1970 and never saw Tiger Red again. In the mid to late 60s, we'd ride our bikes down to the Key Market, and buy single bottles (in glass) on those swampy summer days. I went off it for a while after my older brother told me it would put hair on my chest ;-) but that didn't last long when no chest hair materialized! I still remember the little "bite" that followed a big swig. Good stuff.

I grew up in southern Indiana and I have memories of tiger red pop as well. When I talk to people about it I get looked at like I am crazy. I remember it being the best thing back then and then all the sudden it being gone. I miss tiger red.

I remember this pop. Loved the picture on the can.Use to save the cans. I also remember ..upper 10... and lemon lime soda from the same era.

This was the first soda my brother bought me when i was old enough to remember. You might say it was one of my first memories with my brother. My brother passed away and for whatever reason it sent me on a mission to find it. I searched for over 10 years to find this elusive bottle. I had nearly given up on ever finding this bottle when one day i was telling this story and a man about my age said he had one in his closet. My eyes lit up like i had seen a ghost, i purchased this bottle from him and to this day it brings back the fondest of memories. Im so glad im not the only Tiger Red nut out there. Thank you.

I was telling some of my co-workers about a red creme soda I loved as a child and could not remember the name for nothing. I did remember the tiger on the can. So, I googled it and there it was,,,,,Tiger Red!!! OMG, this was my favorite soft drink ever, and I too wish they would bring it back.

i too grew up in louisivlle kentucky and loved tiger red. no one knows what i am talking about. anyway, i found myself in caracas venezuela with a can of frescolita in hand. i was transported back to childhood in the kentucky. if you know anyone going to venezuela have them bring back a few cans of frescolita and see what it reminds you of

Louisville, Ky 60's and 70's. Loved it I was thinking about it and googled it. That's how I got here. Loved it.

Great to see other Tiger Red fans out there! I grew up in SW Ohio. This was in the late '60s/early '70s, and some of my earliest memories are of my folks getting this for picnic treats or other special occasions. Fantastic stuff! Indeed, if this came back, I'd be first in line for it!

I never had Tiger Red but it sounds good. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a sign with the logo above on it. I saw one hanging in a Cracker Barrel and thought it looked really neat. I do say that I thought it was older than the 1970's though.

I remember getting Tiger Red in a glass bottle, around 1967-1969. It seems to me the tiger image was a little more life-like, and less "tigger" than the one above, though. The closest flavor I've found to being that good, is having bought sarsaparilla root at an herbal shot, and making a tea sweetened with a couple of tablespoons of honey to 16 oz tea. Very good! No Tiger Red, though. :)

I LOVE this site. I too am still a big Tiger Red fan. I asked my husband if he remembered Tiger Red and he gave me a puzzled look and said he had never heard of it. He is only 3 1/2 years older than me, so I began to wonder if I was crazy or my memory of it was imagined. But I remember it was my very favorite drink in the early 70's. I was around 9-11 years old and any time I had a pocket full of change or we had to have a drink for a field trip, I would get my can of Tiger Red! Wish it was still around. I also enjoyed Purple Passion Soda, anyone remember that from around the same time?

Same story as many others here. Grew up in Louisville, KY & loved Tiger Red. When we visited my Great-Grandfather in the country, we always stopped to get Tiger Red to take to the farm. That is where I drank my last one. Loved the tiger on the can too. Glad others have similar memories!

Estill Bryan's Grocery. A neighborhood grocery in Frankfort, Kentucky. All the little neighborhood groceries (Sweasy's, Noonan's, South Frankfort Market, Mason's, The Little Market) carried it but it was Tiger Red in the glass bottle and a frosty pop (Flav-or-Ice popsicles) - the long ones - that I will never forget. I can still recall getting it in the mid-1970s. AND I still have a can.

Tiger Red must have been a regional thing. I, like many of you, grew up in Louisville and remember drinking Tiger Red. While I didn't see much difference between it and the more populsr (and still available) Big Red, I liked the product,and would get it if I could find it. I last saw it at a convenience store near Evansville in the early 80's. I quit drinking soda about a year and a half ago, but I would like to see Tiger Red make a comeback for nostalgia's sake.

It used to be sold at the "Wishing Well" a little store at Bass Lake in Pentwater MI back in the early 70s. Glad others remember this too!

Some of my oldest and fondest memories are of going up to the 'Redoak Store', a little country store, with my grandpa and getting an ice-cold bottle of Tiger Red to enjoy on a hot summer day! Redoak is located between Georgetown, Russellville, and Ripley, Ohio
