Root Beer - WTF?

[Bozza]

Went to the fridge to get myself a beverage. Ah - Dr Pepper - that will do nicely - Ooooooh, I'm a Pepper, you're a pepper, wouldn't you like to be a pepper.

I returned to my desk, cracked open the aforementioned can and took a long slurp.

At least it was going to be a long slurp, but my mouth was soon full of what tastes like anti-septic. Somehow, I had returned with a can of Root Beer (Famous Olde Tyme Barg's - "It's Good!", no less).

Good? It tastes like utter shit. What is it all about?

I can remember as a young boy I used to get root beer whenever I went to McDonalds because I thought it made me grown up much in the same way I always drunk Panda Shandy at Safari parks and zoos.

I tried it some years ago & hated it.
Then my bruv brought back some Route 66 root beer last year & you know what? Twas superb.

My god, I've just sipped some more.

It surely is the devil's own urine.

My god, I've just sipped some more.

It surely is the devil's own urine.

Stop drinking it then!

It is nasty stuff. I've only had it once and hated it.
