I remember Snapple having a fairly impressive variety of flavors back in the day... Nothing like it is today...and a bit later, all those caps with the free subscription to WebTV lol
Nice!! I do remember correctly, then. That was the first time i saw clear root beer...I was intrigued! It was very tasty, that much i definitely remember!
Interesting fact, the reason some root beers have "bite" is due to them having caffeine. Most root beers do not have caffeine and since caffeine has a natural bitter taste, it makes those root beers sharper. At least this was the case for Barq's.
