i did have a mug of this at the restaurant and also a growler to go. sadly i did not take notes on the mug as the growler is a bit flat after a week. oh well. i suppose it just had a bit more carbonation than this. the head was pretty small to begin with. this soda just does not stand out though. yeh, it is pretty good but does not have a strong flavor really, it is just there. you can tell it is root beer of course yet not really enough. they have really good ice cream though also which i would recommend very highly as it is served in a caboose by rather cute girls.

another car hop that i knew about beforehand and headed right for. i must say that this place had the cutest waitresses of any drive in i have been to. although the Stewart’s in Whitehouse or whatever on Rt 22 in New Jersey has very cute girls also, they are much too young. i digress here, sorry. i like this place, good signs, great feel, excellent service, and probably good hot dogs. the root beer was rather good, a little over sweet, but not so bad. it had a real carmel taste going on in it too. the carbonation level was nice and high although the head was not so big really. nothing wrong with that.

this drive in car hop i knew about beforehand. it is right near the Indianapolis Speedway which is pretty rad. and also near a Muffler Man but that is another webiste entirely. sadly when i was here it was raining an insane amount, car hops are just much more fun in the sun i think. but in any case, i ordered some fries and of course a frosty mug of their finest brew. they know how to do it as the mug was indeed fresh from the freezer causing a constant foggy mist to come off of it and the soda contained there-in. the root beer was a little bit watery i thought but had a definite maple syrup-ish sweetness to it. that seemed to give it more of a candy taste, which i approves of whole-heartedly. i hear the food is very good also. the fries were tasty, but i guess i should have had the onion rings. oh well.

I was driving between destinations in Indiana when I passed by this sign. for a moment i considered whether i had time to stop for some soda and if i would even be BK Root Beer or the sign was just old. of course i realized i had to stop so i turned around and went back, pulled in. it looks like they should have car hop service but they don’t anymore, which is fine by me. so i go inside and try to order some soda and food. after waiting for a good 15 minutes and someone in the back looking at me at least 10 times, they come out and take my order and i get some root beer. the brew was pretty decent. the carbonation level was very low as was the foamy head, barely any of either to speak of. the flavor had a slightly bitter taste while being a bit too sweet also. i know, a weird combo. it actually tasted somewhat unusual, so they get points for that. try it out.
