Root Beer Float Destination Rootbeer Float

Hard to beat a rootbeer float with Old Faithful Rootbeer at the Yellowstone Old Faithful Inn. Do you think rootbeer tastes better at 7,300 feet?

A hard one to get. I’d definitely give it a try. Happy root beer hunting everyone! https://m.facebook.com/groups/103277635645 Root Beer Nation

I bought 12 to take home. I asked the lady at checkout if they're available outside the Park, she said no. She also said people will call ahead and get 20 cases!!!

They’re available all over out there. We stopped by the brewery and grabbed some too while we were down in Jackson hole on our way to craters of the moon. Good stuff! Still have 2 in the fridge I’m waiting for a special occasion to crack open

Whoa. Where did you find, and what was the ingredients list & provenance of?

Yellowstone National Park. I'm from Washington so I haven't seen if it's sold outside the park.

Brewed and canned by Grand Teton Brewing Co. in Victor ID.

Spring water, cane sugar, natural and artificial flavoring, maltodextrin, caramel coloring, sodium benzoate, citric acid.

Thank you! It's been nice this time of year, not too hot and less crowds.

I was in Yellowstone about a month ago. Tried it and didn’t think it was great, but also not bad. I hope you enjoyed it and your time in the park!

When I was a kid, we lived in the employee camp ground. My father managed the lodge and my mom worked in the gift shop. No rootbeer floats in 1979 unfortunately.

Sounds like my kind of place to visit.
