Just recently I found Australian root beer in Waitrose in small brown bottles.  I thought it tasted better than the stuff at Sainsbury.

It's called Bundaberg. I buy it at Waitrose too.

Yeah, I tried that too and it wasn't bad.  There's no substitute for Barq's over here, unfortunately,  I find the Carter's bland and insipid.
I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer.

A trip to (dreary)Kingston it is then! This Bundaberg sounds good. Is it in glass bottles? Sure hope so.

I also wish I could find Miller High Life. Shame.

Barq's (ridged bottle) and a honeybun. A great southern breakfast! Well it was for me as a teenager.

Can you still buy the big demijohn of root beer and a tub of ice cream at A&W root beer stands? That was a big treat when we wuz kids.

Carter's is not root beer! It vile.

Asda used to carry it, DD drinks it because it is better than none. You can tell she wasn't raised on Barq's.
Tescos (or one of the big 'uns) used to carry A&W.  Sadly I haven't seen it for a while.
Still tired of coteries and bans. But hanging about anyway.
