Stewart’s Shops Root Beer

so this is not the same as the Stewart’s rootbeer that is in tons of stores, you can only get this in Steweart’s convience stores which seem to be in the northeast mainly. this taste is a little more generic than the other one. quite sweet with a semi-creamy taste.

here is some more info about the difference:
i got this from Neil Goldstein a while ago about this Stewart’s:
“I work for a beverage distributor in New York. Stewarts root beer in the plastic bottle (on the left side of the page) is produced by Stewarts shops from Saratoga NY. This chain of convenience stores started as ice cream shops years ago that also carried eggs, milk, soda, and bread. They have evolved into a good size local chain of full service convenience stores. They still manufacture their own ice cream and sell their own milk, soda, and other items.”

Stewart’s Original Root Beer

i am not sure if this root beer and the plastic bottle one are actually different or not, the ingredients are in a bit different order and the nutrition info is different though. anyhow, they taste darn similiar. so yeh anyway. a bit too creamy for my tastes usually, but sometimes i really get in that mood to have some Stewart’s. with ice cream, it is really even better. it wouldn’t be my first pick, but it is pretty high up there.

i got this info from Neil Goldstein a while ago about this Stewart’s:
“I work for a beverage distributor in New York. The other product (on the right side of the page) is made by Cable Car Beverage, a company owned by Tri-Arc (Mistic, Snapple, RC Cola, etc.). Cable Car’s line of sodas are all old fashioned formulas, hence the lack of bite in the root beer.”

so that is cleared up. i do like this soda, at least more than IBC which is all i can get in a 32 around here.
