| You can get Faygo here in California. And it's good, but not incredible. |

Bevmo carries them here, but they are kind of old when they get here, and oddly enough, I really can taste the difference. I used to get 1 big glass bottle and go to Chipotle in downtown Chicago and it was heavenly. It is really good if you get a decent one at bevmo, but so far, of the 4 I got, one was good and 3 left a lot to be desired. Its a brewed one, with sugar instead of HFCS, so its a different texture than some as well.
Anyway, this thread makes me want to trek across town to get one...

| Abita's root beer is not half so good as their beer, but it is still tasty.

| wow, I'm a die hard root beer afficionado. I'd place Bulldog and Virgils at the top of the list of "top shelf" commercial brews. barqs has caffeine, a rarity among root beer. I'd choose A&W over Barqs, it's at least creamy. if you can get it on tap, it's infinitely better than the bottled HFCS crap.
attached are a few of my favorites |

| MIchael Jackson was pop, soda is for baking, coke is for overpaid executives who are laundering money. |
