ordering small batch craft root beer on tap sounds pretty white.

I visited the US for the first time in 1989, when I was 21. I stayed with an American friend of mine who was the same age as me. My friend introduced me to root beer and a root beer float with vanilla ice cream. She and her friends liked it. I hated the float and I could just about tolerate the taste of root beer on its own.

Is root beer still popular in the US? If so, is it more popular among young people, or people of all ages?

Yes, almost every household is well stocked in this beverage staple. Whether it is for children after school, at breakfast its more popular than coffee and the favorite drink to order at bars is a rum and root beer. Its the most ordered drink on airplanes, at cinemas and sporting events.

Hi, I am OP.
I had no idea that people drink rum and root beer. As an alternative to rum and Coke?

That first trip to the US in 1989 was a real eye opener and it will be etched in my memory forever, in a very good way.
Not only was I introduced to root beer but also to Cherry Coke which I liked.

I had also never experienced a salad bar before. We just didn't have them over here. Of course we could order salads from a menu in a restaurant but we didn't have the American style salad bars. It was great.

Well, it's either root beer and rum or conscripted military service. A lot of eighteen year olds would rather do the traditional 3 root beer & rums and 3 bars instead of 3 years shooting cannons. That's the only reason we invented a drink so intolerable. That, and so people in the UK would have something to be insulting about.

I feel that it's placement in the "Food" forum is likely to serve as a significant handicap, but this thread has the potential to be an all-time DCUM classic. Thanks for your efforts PP.
