I had thought I missed my chance with this, but either they're making it again, or our grocery's distributor found some. Either way, I got a few to stock up in case they disappear. The taste is complex, very much like a classic root beer, nothing too strange. It has a nice bite, licorice, and wintergreen flavors. I love the bottle. A+ on this one, guys, from a true root beer lover, A+.
I thought Virgil's regular root-beer was the best - I was wrong, it's second best.
The only downfall to this product is the price (I paid over $4 for a bottle). I assume that the price factor will keep many people from trying this superior beverage.
I haven't tried this in a root-beer float (I only bought 1 bottle) but I suspect that it would make the best root-beer float imaginable. The taste has a creaminess that is simply unbelievable. Definitely give this one a try.
by far the BEST root beer on the planet - since it's pricey, often around $4.50/bottle, although I can get it locally for $3.59, it is worthy of being a special occasion drink, especially if well-chilled my favorite non-premium brands are IBC, Barqs and Sioux City sarsparilla
