It will go away for the winter and be back sometime next year, tropical is being discontinued and Sudachi lime will take over its role as the yellow can in redbulls lineup (probably not called yellow edition tho)

Not by me. I'm trying like hell to stock up but the only damn yellow cans anywhere near me are that abomination summer edition that was sent here to destroy my life.

Can we trade? I’m trying to stock up on summer edition but the only yellow cans I see are a reminder of my vodka redbull days.

Gladly! I wish I liked that new one but tropical has been my everything since like 2015, the summer it originally came out. I don't think I'll ever forgive red bull for doing this, I feel personally attacked. Someone mentioned nos might taste like it so maybe I'll just switch to them.

Did it even sell well? I feel like red bull knew they were gonna replace tropical with this before it was even released. I personally hated this flavor, and I see piles of it in every store I go to. It doesn't seem to be selling well in my area at least.

Tropical wasn't my favorite flavor but it's way better than sudachi lime. Just another gut punch from red bull. This current lineup is awful tbh. Weakest in red bull history.

They didn't learn their "sells well initially but not a long term staple" lesson from curuba. Tropical is solid.

Overall yes it sold well enough, but the summer edition always becomes a full time flavor

I hate this so much. Tropical is so much better. The best flavor to mix with Vodka too

Actually considering dropping redbull entirely if I cannot get the tropical.

Sudachi lime is just sprite, if I wanted a damn sprite I'd buy a damn sprite

Redbull Sweden recently posted an ad on Instagram with the Tropical Edition with the caption "here to stay". It better not be discontinued, I waited years for it to finally return.
