Have been putting it off forever but did an overnight mash to save time. Making an apricot ale for the missus. Just squeaked it in before I leave for work two weeks tomorrow morning.
I don’t drink that much nowadays and not as much company is coming over so if you guys could help me drain the 3 beers I have on tap in the garage I’d be thankful! 
lol, i was just telling the wife that I think we have to throw all the beer in the basement out. I don’t know how long some of it has been there.
I swear I thought the first pic was kombucha
Im gonna be honest with you. I have never even tried kombucha haha.
I agree, I drink rootbeer from a place in state college, pa called Ottos, they have a brewery there and make it on site. I think it is delicious. Get some everytime we visit the kid at college. Someone had just dropped a six pack here (they say to pick it up from the bottom, but no one reads signs).
Here is some of the non alcoholic stuff they brew.
Here’s local to St. Louis. Very good stuff.
I gotta try that. I love root beer. Hard to beat an A&W from a place that has it in the barrels
Love myself a nice cream soda or even sassparilla. Have always thought about brewing one and maybe someday I will.
We have made cream soda at home. It was some type of kit, but I can’t remember exactly what was involved. The boys did it one year.
The place I buy it from has a restaurant/pub. I have had it there while eating and I like it in the bottle better than on tap. It may be the local water/ice watering it down that I don’t care for. The stuff in the bottle tastes crisper to me.
Pm me your address and I’ll send you a bottle.
I didn’t even know they had root beer in barrels. That’s pretty cool. They used to have a handful of A&W’s around here. There’s only one left.
You need to go there and get a root beer before they close. All the ones around me closed. I took a 200 mike detour in Oklahoma on our Rt 66 yep so my son could get one. He loves root beers and strawberry sodas
We had an A&W here and it closed about a year ago. I never went in but sure love Root Beer. Ever saw it in a barrel though. (Excerpt the hard candies 
)
IBC is decent but nothing beats Barq’s
How was the Fitz’s?
Barqs has a little too much bite. Fitz was a little buttery, like a cross between A&W and a cream soda. I liked it. Mike sent me 4 but UPS busted up two of them. I drank one and was going to make a float with the other but the baby boy found it and opened it before I could throw my shoe at him
That must be what I love about it. Nice review lol I’ll have to find a website that has ALL the root beers to order and sample. If I can’t find one I’m making one haha. Sorry bout your float that could have been
