I haven't seen it in my parts for a long time now. Thanks!

Here's some copy on the differences between Root Beer and Sarsaparilla: https://www.bundaberg.com/en-us/the-difference-between-root-beer-and-sarsaparilla/

I have some in my fridge right now.

Nice! In my area when it came out it was during the same time as Dad's Root Beer. Sarsaparilla had the embossed bottles instead of the labels then.

I've had this one. Pretty good stuff. Extra sweet IIRC.

I remember when I went to the states for the first time and tried root beer from the soda dispenser. Let me just say that it's a taste I haden't acquired yet not have I any intention of aquiring.

I get Americans who try our licorice better now.

Just a FYI the actual ingredient from sassafras root was found to be "dangerous for consumption" so no rootbeer in the USA contains it. It is illegal for sale within the states.

But its still available outside the USA. If you can get your hands on some.

Personally American rootbeer tastes like toothpaste. Don't believe me? Then compare them your self.
