Hires. they invented root beer, what can you really say? among the big brands, they are still one of the best out there. creamy, bubbly, just a bit too sweet at times though. you can get some great bottles and some ones that are too syrupy. seems a bit hard to find anymore in the northeast especially. hope they are not slowly dieing or anything. a nice bottle design also, simply yet classic.

I’ve been gradually reviewing root beers for about the last 4-5 years, and I just noticed this is the only national brand on my list not found yet.
I remember this being one of the biggest brands, yet I haven’t seen it in what must be at least 5 years.
I live in Arizona, so I wonder if whoever bottles it doesn’t distribute it here.
We also can’t get Mr Pibb, which is the biggest pain in the a^^ in the world.
