Hello all,

I am in desperate need of finding out where I can purchase alcoholic root beer. I have recently found out that it does in fact exist, but I cannot find a company that makes it. I live in southern California and have scanned over google and misc websites and have come up empty. If anyone knows where I can purchase it whether it is via store/website/wholesaler, please let me know.

-Thank you for your time

Try searching for "Root Beer Schnapps", or just go to a liquor store and ask.

I am curious as to how someone can be in "desperate need" for something like this. If you don't find it will the mob break your legs? Is it part of a scavenger hunt that you must complete in order to get your inheritance? If you give it to your priest, has he agreed to pardon your sins? Did you find a miracle cure for cancer, and alcoholic root beer is the final missing ingredient?

Of course you could always just buy some delicious RootJack and add some rum like a good pirate would.

My motto is that if you can't find it in the store than make it yourself. Most beer & wine making stores sell everything you need to make a batch.

I did find a brand...Rock Hard Root Beer from the Huebert Brewing Company in Oklahoma City, OK.
www.huebertbrewing.com
reviews don't sound too promising, but who knows until you try it. Looks like only about 6 distributors nationally, and 3 are in OK.

East of the Mississippi, Sam Adams made a a "hard" root beer a few years back, but only for 1 summer. The Lion Brewery in Philadelphia also makes a hard root beer. I'll have to ask my high school friend and Tulsa TV reporter to checkout Rock Hard the next time he's in OK City.

Heard of but haven't tried Frank's Alcoholic Root Beer. It got pretty good reviews. http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/franks-alcoholic-root-beer/136652/
