The best damn root beer out there?

[im4isu]

1818 root beer from the keg. Brewed at Schells brewery in New Ulm, MN. They also make grape, strawberry, and orange pop (Buddys).................crushes Chush.

I haven't had it before but doesn't Olde Main have a root beer? There hasn't been a beer from olde main I haven't liked, and in general I really don't like draught's but Olde Main's in delicious. Back on point, if their root beer is as good as their beer, I think that would be my favorite.

Also to stay on point (slightly) the best root beer I've personally had would be a tie between Sioux City Sarsaparilla and IBC Root Beer, we serve it at the coffee shop where I work and it's great.

Yes, its called Red Monkey. Very different tasting, does not taste like normal root beer, but I love it. Kind of a strong honey taste, hard to describe. A lot of people either love it or find it disgusting.

Sioux City Sarsaparilla = Best!

Aren't those A&W? They used to be. 50 cents for a small and $1 for a large. Ahh, those were the days.

Red Monkey is god awful and doesn't even taste like root beer, I can't believe so many people like it.

Barq's is my favorite in terms of generic, but A&W is good, especially if you're in the mood for a creamier taste.

So in other words, you're the kind of guy that would prefer to go to Applebee's for a steak instead of a world class steak house?

I believe they are.

I was in Wisconsin for the weekend, saw Sprecher's at a gas station, bought one bottle. I opened it in my car, took one drink, set it down so I could go back inside and bought 6 more bottles. This stuff is the best ever without a doubt.

Sioux City Sarsaparilla = Best!

Say friend you got any more of that good sarsaparilla?

Sioux City Sarsaparilla?

Yeah that's a good one.


I've never actually had it, but if it's good enough for the stranger in The Big Lebowski, then it's good in my book too.

Sioux City Sasparilla is damn good for bottle RB, but I used to keep a keg in my kegerator of 1919 at all times. Best there is in my book, plus nothing better than pouring one of your own in a frosty mug. If anyone looking for some the beer distributors usually sell it for servicing bar and grills

 

[TaDelt]

1919 is by far and away the best Root Beer out there

 

[isufox]

Best root beer no longer available was the root beer on tap from DogNSuds.

Still available: BevMo! - Wine, Spirits, Liquor, Beer, Microbrews, Gourmet, Champagne, Cabernet, Chardonnay, Bordeaux, Scotch, Vodka, Tequila

If one likes flavorless, flat, disgusting root beer, then 1919 is the stuff for you.

 

[CysRage]

Barqs or A&W. Please nobody say Mug, it tastes like mouthwash...

Here is the root beer song a few friends of mine made a couple of years ago.
