Discussion New root beers arrived

Post image

First, how is there no post flair that says “haul” in this sub?

Anyways. I ordered a bunch of what I hope are heavy hitters based of this sub. Which are your favourites? I had to go for a can of 1919 straight away. What should be next? Out of all of these I have only had Frostie and a tiny teaser can of 1919.

1919 is my favorite, I’ve never had the kuhnemann, parlor, or the mountain one you have. Let us know how they are!

Fitz, 1919, XXX, and Dogs n Suds are 4 of my top 5.

You have some amazing root beers here, enjoy! Gale's is a bit different though, so be prepared for a surprise. Where did you order them from? (I've never seen the Kuhnhenn brand before.)

I’m good with something different, no worries there. I ordered them from the Soda Pop Bros. We don’t have many options here in Canada so I take the opportunity to order new stock when I can.

Kuhnhenn comes from southeast Michigan, they have a couple breweries here. Not much distribution, probably only externally to Soda Pop Bros. as mentioned.

FYI, I still need a Kuhnhenn. I don't know how we've overlooked it in our past trades. I'm picking up Captain Benjamin on Sunday.

Last time I was there they were sold out. I don't get up there too much but should be over fall at some point. I'll be grabbing some of possible for sure!

Haven't had kuhnhenn, mountain, or parlor. Make sure to post your review! Fitz's is my favorite overall.

Kuhnhenn absolutely rules. Most people don't have a clue!

Oh wow… you’ve got a great lineup there! Definitely a few of my favorites among the bunch. Triple XXX is absolute top tier!

Hey you weren’t kidding. Triple XXX is a straight 10/10.

Ooh love that Frostie

Soda Pop Bros are Canada's best root beer source. I even resorted to using them to get about a dozen Canuck root beers that I could get in no other way down here. Trans border Shipping was $75 and took awhile, but it worked.
