I have not seen it. But the packaging looks quite retro.

It's a pale ginger ale, not as spicy as our local Vernor s ( Detroit)

speaking of Vernor's, does anyone know why it's only available in Michigan?

A friend of my parents picked me up some a few weeks ago. Pretty good stuff. It has a very unique taste, kind of like a ginger ale, but also different than a ginger ale.

Vernor's in bottles is reserved for the elite soda drinkers of Michigan...   Either that or no other states wants it  Oo
