It will never sell, clear beer and clear Cola is repulsive, it's been tried.

TOKYO—The drink in the bottle might look clear, but one tastes like coffee, another is flavored like Coca-Cola KO -0.11% and a third lays claim to “beer taste.”

Japanese beverage makers are increasingly producing products that look like water but taste like other drinks, betting that consumers want the taste of Coke or beer in a healthier-looking clear liquid. The latest wave of water-like drinks hints at the contortions companies must go through to satisfy consumer demands for flavorful drinks that are also good for you and inoffensive-looking.

“The need for drinks that people can enjoy without any hesitation is one of the reasons behind growing demand for clear-color beverages in Japan,” said Ryo Otsu, a creator of a clear nonalcoholic beer that Suntory Holdings Ltd. began selling in June.

I was 14 when the zima craze hit.

Worked wonders to convince prudish pre-teens loosen up :) Noone really drank it more than twice though.
