Root beer tastes like germoline...which is weird because I've never tasted germoline and actually quite like root beer.

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.

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.

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.
