Root Beer Rules

How's the battle going?

 

all I know is the root beer float flavored yogurt at yogurtland on 3rd and Labrea sucks ass!!!

 

There's just some flavors you shouldn't mix with yogurt.

 

I'm not a fan of Yogurtland. I like Red Mango better.

 

is red mango self serve?

thats the one thing I like about yogurt land I can get a bit of yogurt and fruit and pay only 20 cents an ounce

 

It's not self serve but it's my favorite place by far. I don't have enough self control to serve my own yogurt, I always mix flavors and it never works.

 

I just had some Sparky's and it also has honey in it. I didn't check initially then I tasted it and it had that distinct flavor to it. I didn't care for it too much. I did see you posted that Faygo didn't fair well, but I kinda liked it... I enjoyed Masons. Frostie's did nothing for me and my wife drank my Dogs n' Suds. Said that after she did she looked at the label and should have just drunk poison instead b/c of all the hi-fructose and other ingredients. lol

The BevMo here doesn't have a large selection at all. The Kutztown Birch Beer was pretty tasty.

 

Triple XXX sucked!!!
so far, in my own personal taste tests, capt'n eli's has been the best.
good balance between sweetness and rootness (spicyness)
albita was a bit on the rooty side, but still really good

 

fuck i missed the honey on the label... it looks like we will have our first WGRBC violation. A replacement will be named. thanks for the heads up.

 

Allergic or just don't like honey?

 

i'm vegan so i dont drink or eat honey.

i'm looking to replace sparky's with this one:

they donate their profits to help shelter dogs.

 

Ah man.....I had high hopes for Sparky!

 

That'll do it

 

Damn I'm late on this thread. I love root beer and all similar drinks. I'm not sure if sarsaparillas were included in the root beer realm but amazingly in Taiwan they love sarsaparilla (if you talk to people from most asian countries there tends to be a heavy distaste for root beer and the like). Hey Song brand is king there and it comes in 3 varieties:

regular:


sweetie (touch of citrus):


with salt (yep just with salt added):


then there is also the unfortunately named:


All were especially delicious though

 

Fucking love Hey Song Sarsaparilla!

 

It is really delicious. Hard to come by state side though.

 

99 Ranch.
There has to be one near you.
You're in LA.

 

where can i find it up here?

 

I believe so. I'm totally on it!

 

adam get me a can!

 

For sure! You're going to love it. I drank about 80 gallons of it when I was in Taiwan, that and apple milk...

 

with or without salt?

 

Without. W/ salt reminds me of when I got sick as a kid.

 

yup,,in nifty pull-tab bottles..



the hey song sarsaparilla sounds good..i think i may have an easier time sourcing it here than US root beers...the hunt begins!!

 

I'm going to guess that's really good. I'm basing this guess on the Australian to US licorice style comparison. Nice ToT avatar by the way, jebcrow.
