Piratecat's Official Drink???

Wow I never knew that. No wonder I only drink Barqs...

Atleast when my desire for Ambrosia overwhelms my inate allergy to sugary colas...

Barqs is the best--EvilE

Okay, that's funny.

Thanks!

Capsicum in a root beer....? Hrm... Is that typical?

Actually, Skeleteens sodas have been around for quite a while. I remember drinking Brainwash as a lowly freshman in college. That stuff was like jet fuel! A bottle or two and finals were easy because the need for sleep was eliminated.

They specialized in highly caffinated herbal sodas, and their product is quite tasty (though the presence of capsicum does lend a unique note to the product).

If you've got the time, I'd highly recommend picking up a few bottles. If you're not very adventurous, try the ola Cola (pronounced Fu-Kola Cola)-- easily the most mainstream of their drinks. For the brave, Brainwash and Black Lemonade are excellent.

Rat bastardy or not, I'll slide this over to OT.

Barqs is the only popular brand I know of that does.

Exactly.

Actually, it always pays to check... while Barqs and Sunkist (which tastes like crap anyway) are the only popular brands to have caffeine, most of the store brands do have caffeine in them. While not popular, they are cheaper, and thus more often bought.

Except I'm a root beer/orange soda snob... all I drink is IBC and Minute Maid, respectively. Though I'm always open to something better.
