Speaking of Root Beer. I had two when I was in Chicago. One was called Rowdy Root Beer. It was really good. Then I had one at State and Lake that was called Not Your Grandaddy's Root Beer (I think). They ordered me a 32 oz. one and after about half way through it informed me it was 20% ABV. Holy crap.

Not your fathers, thats the one from small town brewery. Its only 6% though.

Says 19.5% on the menu and beer advocate. Either way. It will make you a limp noodle after a long day/night out on the town. That was our night cap. Or my nighty night cap.

I've been wanting to try one. I'm a big fan of regular root beer I'm sure the alcoholic version is great.

I would suggest the Berghoff Rowdy Rootbeer. Especially if you like canned rootbeer. To me, it tasted more like a typical rootbeer. Had a little bite to in like a carbonation in a soda.

their website says 10%, but I swear I saw 5.9 on the bottle. I'll have to check one of them tonight.

Wonder if they have different alcohol contents for draft.

Maybe it's just what the locals call it. I was not very coherent when I discovered this...lol

The bottles we had are 5.9.

Went to community tap last week looking for a root beer with no luck.

Y'all have growlers?

Buddy of mine wants me to build a stainless stand/cooker for him to start doing big batches of all grain brewing and is going to pay me in beer. He's done a good bit of brewing usually starting from extract but said after starting from grain there's no going back with how much better it is.
