When I lived by Milwaukee, Sprecher root beer.

 

 

Sprecher out of Milwaukee . . . and it aint even close . . .IMO.

 

Sprecher is the best I've had.

 

Point Brewery makes a root beer as well but I haven't had it yet.

I'm a Ginger Beer fan myself.

Never had that. Unless you're joking, can you point me in the direction of a good one?

 

Sprecher's gets a 3.5 out of 5 from the two 'raters' I linked above. They rated my favorite (Virgil's) the same. Anyone ever have Gales? Gales sounds like it would be good with strong hints of cinnamon and vanilla, and it's rated 4.25 by the same crew. Obviously very subjective rating system, but it was pretty well thought out and it was a blind taste test.

These guys did. I found the reviews and rating system interesting.

 

if it was part of your initial post,

 

[lt. kaffee] then why the need for a 2nd post? [/lt. kaffee].

 

 

 

i understand they did it. my taste buds are likely different than theirs, plus i'd like to experience it myself.

I figured you might have skimmed the thread so I re-posted it. Plus, if they were serious enough about it to post it online and put that much effort in it - I figured it has to be pretty accurate. I hear ya though, just figured you likely won't actually do the taste test so this is a shortcut :wacko:

Barq's in the glass bottle, there's nothing that comes close and there are only two bottlers who still package it that way, one here (where Barq's was created) & one in Louisiana so they are fairly difficult to find.

god how i miss Stewart's :wacko:

Stewart's is sold at any Cracker Barrel which I know you have locally.

I am talking about the actual "Drive In" or whatever you want to call them(which of course is where you can get their draft rootbeer from too)
