Jolly Cola is a Danish cola. Through many years, it has gained some kind of cult status because of its "tackyness". It has been produced by dansk coladrik (aka Danish Coladrink) since 1959, and during the 1960s it held 2/3 of the Danish soft drink market. Now it is owned by the Danish Brewery Group. In 2005, an ongoing trial is taking place between the breweries "Albani" and "Vestfyn", about the right to distribute Jolly Cola. Jolly Cola accounts for only about 6% of the market in 2003, which is the latest figure. In 2005, the brewery Vestfyen has the following Jolly products for sale: Jolly Cola, Jolly Light, Jolly Time, Jolly Orange and Jolly Energy Cola.
However, in the Faroe Islands, Jolly Cola is market leader and distributed by the brewery Föroya Bjór.
