Seriously, why don't you just pour seltzer water in triaminic? This stuff is awful.

Stewart's is the way to go.

But it is caffinated. Its got "bite".
Otherwise, so many better ones.
-
I have no patience for any root beer.

Recently discovered that Canadain Mountain Dew has no caffiene. What's the point of The Dew if it doesn't have a ridculous amount of caffiene?
They have something else called "Dew Fuel" that has parental warning labels on it about having "Explicit Energy" in it and is not safe for children. Whatever.
I don't drink many root beers, but I agree with Econo - Barqs is the worst.
-
I like Barq's well enough but I really like IBC.
-
It is all about the Virgil's for me or if at the Black Cat, Dominion.
-
I LOVE rootbeer, and Barq's really is the lowest of the low.

I wonder what the deal is with the Rocklands BBQ private label root beer? When I asked, the counter person didn't know if they were just repackaging a regular store brand or not

Most likely it's Dominion's. Just like a lot of other places that carry their own brand ale or lager around this area it's usually from Dominion. Mmmmm

so will old age.
my favorite is stewarts. . .i'll pass up coke if stewarts is an option.
-
Root beer tastes like germoline...which is weird because I've never tasted germoline and actually quite like root beer.
-
ooo. what is the verdict on birch beer?
like it too. i think fanta actually makes a decent one.

Anyone ever been to Mug'n'Bun near the Speedway in Indianapolis? They make some dang good rootbeer there.
However, for rootbeer you can get around here, i vote Dominion.
-
Sprecher also makes a really good root beer. The Dairy Godmother in Del Ray makes their root beer floats with it. Yum.
-
many moons ago, the club had dominion root beer on tap. i miss those days.
i think hard times makes their own root beer, and it's pretty good.
-
You still can't beat Dandelion and Burdock though, best soft drink EVER

it won't kill you, it just is empty calories and a shit-ton of chemicals...rootbeer is the exception, because I like it
-
there was a party at my school over the weekend and we had a keg of dominion root beer.

you're really gunning for the "ms. call-back" award, aren't ya?!?
dang, i haven't had birch beer in, like 10-15 years... haven't thought about it since. yeah, damn good stuff. might have to hunt some down soon, if only to remember a taste from yonder years.
slowgraffiti - i take it your school is in a dry county?

Odd, I quite like Barq's. While it's not as good as the likes of Stewart's and such, I'd put it above Mug and A&W in a second. Barq's Red Cream Soda is tops, though.
I almost never drink soda anymore, though. I had some at the movies the other night, and that was probably my first in months.
And birch beer is awesome. Pennsylvania Dutch all the way.
-
Is the root beer they serve at Franklin's in College Park also Dominion? Definitely some damn good root beer regardless.

there is actually a cafe in annapolis that still has fountain birch beer...

my school's quite wet. there were seventeen kegs of normal beer, but it was a school sponsored party so they always have a non-alcoholic option around.
-
if you want the best root beer, go to any sweet water tavern restaurant and get their homemade, brewed batch. beautiful.

You can always get Fanta Birch Beer at the 14th and U St McD's...wouldn't recommend anything else from there or Toxic Hell/KFC. Food poisoning is bad...

maybe a better title would have been "ms. throwback"... you've unburied several long-lost memories for me recently, like birch beer.
-
hmm... so is this a good thing or bad?
and things like that probably age me past what my actual age is, ha.

definitely a good thing, i like being reminded of warm fuzzies from years past like the yummy taste of birch beer. think of it as a veiled "thank you". forget what else it was that you reminded me of recently, but it was a good one too.
and despite how juvenile many of us act here (guilty!), we're probably older than you think so no worries about your age :)

haha. always good to hear. and nice to see 'thanks you' passed around on here, even if they are veiled. and you know, most everyone on here is probably older than i am, but at least i can legally drink/have a real job/live on my own. ;)

one hasn't lived until they attempted Moxie and IrnBru
-
I always liked birch beer a bit better that root beer. And prefer regular beer far more than either of those.
-
The only upside of seeing the redneck contingent of my family (besides, I guess, the kids) is stopping at Weiss to pick up a case of their Diet White Birch Beer. I do appreciate beers of the Birch, Root and Malt/Hops/Barley variety equally in different ways.
-
birch beer rocks
as does ginger beer
-
Yes, to a sharp ginger beer.
