Barq's rootbeer is what I usually get, but there are a hand full of better brands I'll buy when available. Root Beer is pretty damned amazing though when it is done correctly.

Me too, but only because that's my upper price limit.  I'm not paying beer prices for root bear... (and I don't even drink beer.)



Henry Weinhard is about as much as IBC, but they only distribute to the West. So if you're east of NM or Utah you can't get it. Had it with some greasy pizza and hot wings the other night...excellent flavor.

People actually like that stuff?  After watching Happy Days for years and seeing Richie Cunningham and co always ask for a root beer, I had to try one when I first visited USA.  It was like drinking TCP.  Absolutely disgusting.  Only OK if you have a throat infection and need to gargle.

Well, I just moved from the west to Nevada, i'll have to check it out if I see it.

I usually shop in the poor person's supermarket though.  Selection sucks, but you can't beat the prices.

That looks tasty. What is it?



Above: still the best game of the year.

Should have made this a poll as well. 

Is nobody else a Jones fan? I really like their drinks, not just the root beer. Try their Cream Soda and Berry Lemonade too, both really good.
