Anyone who is familiar with IBC Root Beer knows that this wonderful bottle of root beer flavored sugar is just so tastey. I saw at the store the other day IBC Root Beer in a can. Is this considered blasphemy?

Also, does anyone remember drinking an Australian drink called "Wallaroo"?

pop (soda to some) always tastes better in a glass bottle. I hate those plastic bottles they have now.

Plastic bottles do indeed suck. The IBC comes in a glass bottle.

Wallaroo came in a glass bottle too. Was out in the late 80s. Carbonated with different flavors. Was really good.

Yes, it is blasphemy. I can count the ways it is wrong.

IBC should only be in a bottle.

Same with Blenheim's Ginger Ale (southern local brand).

YUM YUM AND YUM!

Wallaroo - what sort of drink is it. Is it an apple alcohol drink?

Wallaroo is a testing site for military in South Australia.

Wallaroo is a cross from a wallaby and kangaroo happy

Australia's best is the Bundaberg ginger beer - nicedrinker

It was marketed as a drink from Australia. It was not alcoholic. It was like carbonated fruit juice, but not like orange juice or anything like that. Kiwi-Mango type flavors. I'm guessing it didn't originate down under but that's how it was marketed.
