step aside,

best root beer coming thru

>> No.7473373

Correct.

>> No.7473398

of all the big name root beers, this is unquestionably the best, but what are some small time root beers that taste good? in my experience they all taste way more like the other ingredients rather than a distinct kind of root beer. IBC is similar to barqs, but iron horse is garbage, and i guess kilibrew is fine if you like shoe polish

all things flavored to taste like root beer are awful

so i understand that most europeans wont like it because they are only coming off that awful flavoring used in medicines, americans are introduced to actual good root beer taste from the beginning. for a euorpean, i would recommend barqs because it tastes the most like cola

You kidding me? Europe is filled with liquor that tastes like that, not to mention the strong licorice that's popular in a lot of European countries.

If you're ever in the Baton Rouge area there's a shitty looking diner on Government Street that makes really great root beer in house. It's so much thicker and creamier than any other root beer I've had. it's the shit.

Agreed, we used to stop at the A&W in Standish MI when going Up North camping or hunting and the root beer was the best but the canned stuff from the grocery store wasn't quite up to snuff.
