Truly exceptional root beer
This is a wonderful drive-in with car-hop service. There are long waits for service -- at least on a Sunday night in late March, when I was there, when all of the many parking spots were taken. It is deservedly popular, and well worth the wait.

Review of the ROOT BEER
        A soapy nose made me think maybe the glass had not been rinsed out after washing; this was the only thing I did not like about this amazing root beer. A maple syrupy lead, slight burnt sugar taste. Very similar to Mug 'N Bun, a little more wintergreen stirring in aftertaste. Rich, full bodied, delightfully sweet. A lovely, smooth smooth brew. Didnt get much rootiness on the first time around.
I ended up buying a half-gallon to go, which is served in plastic container like a milk jug, which fueled most of my drive to Fort Wayne. I detected no soapy smell to this batch, which confirmed my feeling about my first mug. The next morning, I had some of it warm, and it is a remarkable root beer. Oooh. A complex, rooty taste, which was masked by the cold, emerged in the warm brew. A very subtle and pleasant rooty aftertaste. I upgraded both rootiness and aftertaste after my morning's libation. This is a truly exception brew.    [31 Mar 2004 03:08:55]
