I’m going to guess it’s a form of alcohol, given the username and personality:) ---

Wow, I used to drink that all the time … yum! Just thinking about one takes me back to my mis-spent youth, it does. Wonder if they carry it at the store here? ---

Ginger Ale makes me feel like a kid. I had it when I had tummyaches. mmm…ginger ale. ---

None of the above. It’s a state of mind. They just put Vernors’ Ginger Ale in the soda machine here at work. Only took me about a year and a half to convince 'em it’d be worthwhile. ---

And - perhaps it’s sacrilege to ask - do they make _diet_ Vernor’s now? \ I hate getting old. ---

Vernors truly rocks. However the old glass bottles were the best.The plastic bottles make it taste funny so I avoid it except to make Vernors floats mmmmmmmm… MikeG runs to the Grocery store… ---

The absolute **best** part about drinking an ice-cold Vernors is when, as you bring the glass up to your mouth, all of the little jumping carbonation-fizzies get inhaled into your nose where they do a frantic little jig. Perfection! ---

Isn’t a Vernors float properly called a Boston Cooler? I can’t say I’m wild about the stuff, but every once in a while, I get a craving for it. Usually when I’m down here in Missouri where no one’s ever heard of it. ---

I love how it makes your eyes water when you take several long swallows from a freshly opened can. Ahhhhhh, Vernors, Indeed! 🙂 ---

Thanks, **cher3** , that’s all I needed to know. I’m checking the store as soon as I get off work. A Vernor’s float? Intriguing! ---

Vernor’s is pretty good, but I prefer to drink Canada Dry. [sub]There’s an opening here for anyone who wants it.[/sub] ---

I’ve tried drinking Wyoming dry a couple of times and just couldn’t do it. No way I could manage Canada. [sub]Thanks, Slip![/sub] ---

I drank my beererator dry Sunday afternoon. When I saw the name of this thread I thought, uh oh, Uncle Beer done reared back and cut a big hunk of the cheese. 😃 [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ahhhhhh/95576.md?page=2)
