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

Art, you must try a Berghoff's sometime in the windy city, if you ever get there. 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...

Yes. This discussion almost isn't even worth having.

Kemper gets an honorable mention in my book. IBC is lame.

A&W is pretty good otherwise tho.

I don't think I've seen it anywhere in the South, and I've looked for good root beers.

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.
