Nathans is pretty good.

No high fructose corn syrup. It has good flavor nothing that unique. I like it more then their butterscotch root beer.

Popped my Hank’s cherry…

I’ve always been a Sprecher guy since it’s made pretty close to home and available, but this Hanks is real nice! Love the bite/carbonation and deeper flavor, almost a little smoky! Definitely going to start adding this to my regular rotation

Another game night, another root beer

It’s hockey night so that means it’s root beer time. Tonight’s choice is Dang’s! Butterscotch root beer. I was actually really excited to try this, but ended up being underwhelmed feeling middling about it. There’s nice carbonation with a slight bite, but all the root beer notes are overtaken by the butterscotch flavor. That flavor is good, but I wanted more complexity in the drink. I also found it made me just want a simple butterscotch beer. While I enjoyed this I don’t think I’d buy it again though.

Six shooter root beer

Has anyone heard of or remember this brand?

My local pizza place in Ishpeming Michigan used to have it on tap and it was the best thing ever.

They relatively recently switched to barqs or mug and it just isn't the same.

I miss my nostalgic, on tap, rootbeer

I just want to know how I can get it, or get some closer knowing I will never have it again

Summit Float!

A very affordable and solid root beer. French vanilla enhances Summit quite nicely.

Cheating

Not sure if it counts because it has other flavors but this was quite the treat. The butterscotch compliments the root beer flavor very well. Definitely getting more of these.

Low cal or sugar root beer?

Any recommendations on a low cal root beer or less sweetening?

I love root beer but I find I can’t just have one and before I know it the whole six pack is gone :(. Definitely adding some pounds.

Any recommendations for like good tasting but not super sweetened or high cal?

Edit: A bunch of great suggestions, thanks everyone :)…I’m definitely going to try to find diet barqs

Zuberfizz

Overall, pretty good. Perhaps too much licorice for my tastes.

Root Beer in airports

Tell me the airports that have root beer! Mug/A&W/Barq’s don’t count for this one as they are generally readily available.

Here’s my list:

Salt Lake - I’ve found Stewart’s, Brigham’s Brew, and Jackson Hole Bucin’ Root Beer Houston (I think it was IAH?) - Hanks Nashville - Abita St Louis - Fitz’s

Surprisingly I can’t find any at the Denver airport.

Today’s haul

Passed by a local BevMo and was surprised to see they had a decent rootbeer selection. Never tried either but have seen others post these two. Thoughts? Which one should I try first?
