Sure! they still exist! You can get dog n suds rootbeer by the

here at the local grocery store.
I'm not drinking anything called dog n suds.

No freakin' way.

In any case, the best root beer is A&W.

mmmmmmmrootbeer
There was no contest in a DognSuds vs A&W. The latter tasted like the
former diluted with water.
Like most former Army types, your taste is in your feet.

After marching 40 miles. :)
How can you make comparison claims when you've never tasted a DognSuds?
Don't have to. A&W rules and that's that.

Even after 40 miles I'd probably choose cat **** over A&W.
No you wouldn't.

But, my favorite soft drink *is* root beer. Hell, it's my favorite hard
drink too.
Hard root beer?
Root Beer schnapps.
Isn't that whiskey?

IDIOT, it is only whiskey if the Root Beer been aged in oak barrels. ;)


Is that to EU standard?

Standard set by Scotland, endorsed by EU

Thats just it!

If you order Rootbeer by the mug, he SELLS you the new frosted mug.
Otherwise you only get it in a cheap paper cup

He has all his stuff printed up like the 60's and does the car/ hot rod
cruise a couple times a year. He closes in the winter, but is open
most of the summer. When up there, I still like to park, hit the
button, order, and the girl brings out the stuff. Yes, you can still
put down the window and have a tray hang on it.


Cool. And you've probably outgrown the *need* to steal a mug!

Actually, I am not sure it is drinkable in any aging medium.

Not cool. We used to make a big game of stealing the mugs. We knew all the
waitresses, dated most of them, and it was an art to get a mug without them
knowing. Usually two or three cars would have to work together.

We'd always give them back a couple days later, and get a free root beer
for turning in a 'lost' mug!

Well, I see your point, but I think , that especially that this is a
really small operation, that this guy has been mugged over mugs before,
and would just as soon help you take home a mug.

HOWEVER! you buy a frosted mug, and you do get two free refills.
