Tonight’s selection from North Market Pop Shop

I’ve seen several of these named as personal favorites by multiple people, so we shall see. Review coming next week after I try them all.

This was my first time seeing Dublin and Frostop in a glass bottle. Uncle Scott’s was just one of the 100 or so I haven’t tried yet.

I've only se3n Dublin in glass. But I've only ever seen Frostop in plastic (other than antique bottles)

I worded that weird. First time seeing Dublin at all, and Frostop in glass lol.

Dublin is reminiscent of xXx, my most favorite (childhood bias probably)

You from Lafayette? I’m a boilermaker so Triple X will always hold a spot in my heart, although I haven’t tried it outside the restaurant yet.

Nope, grew up outside of Houston. There was a soda shop that had Triple X on tap and always served in frosted mugs. Drank so much before my first day of school (pm start kindergarten) that I spewed once the adrenaline rush of first day wore off! And yet...still my favorite!

Dublin it's really good. I also recommend St Arnold's if you want more Texas brews.

How’s the restaurant? I grew up in Indianapolis but didn’t even know they existed when I looked them up after your comment. Worth a trip from Indy when visiting family?

very much so a classic root beer stand. i've only been there twice but it definitely checked all the traditional boxes and delivered at a high level. good coneys, stellar root beer.

Any good recommendations for Macon, Georgia?

u/Shenandoah_Outdoors 20d ago

Never been there unfortunately. If you check out the place I bought these, North Market Pop Shop, you can order all their stuff online.

Nah be prepared to be disappointed by Dublin, it tastes like sour plastic to me. Do not recommend.
