Don't blame ya. Good stuff. An IBC black cherry in a glass bottle goes good too.

 My favorite snack as a kid was a frozen Snickers bar and a birch beer.

Birch Beer seems to be a regional thing as I don't see it here very often and back in the early 80's when I first tried it a buddy had brought some back from a family trip to Pennsylvania. When I was a lad there was nothing better than a tall glass bottle of Squirt....damn good.

Not the best but I think Polar is national and they make it. I've seen it locally at IGA.

When I was a kid it was Varsity Birch Beer. It was clear and also in a clear bottle with a blue cap. My great grandfather ran Kendall's bottling plant in Conway.

Edit: found pic of the cap.

Ill get the polar every now and then. Got to drink it quick as it goes flat fast.

This is the one I had...want to try Red one next.

I always grab a 4 pack of Stewart's whenever I see it. Most stores seem to carry every Stewart's flavor except Birch Beer.

The furthest away you can set the locator is ten miles. Guess how many stores pop up for me?

Nope. The Wally World is even a Supermarket.  Just a Shaws for major grocery store

Stopped by Aldi for a skirt steak for tomorrow night and picked up some chili thai shrimp or something like that for tonight. 

Damn I was surprised at how good it was!  Getting it again.

My nonna used to make it, but she's been gone for a while. Haven't had any real homemade gnocchi in a long time.

The gnocchi I bought at the grocery store. Most I’ve tried are not good, but this one was excellent.

There's a couple of Italian places around here that have it, but not the same as homemade.  Used to get it at a place in South Warren called Firenze , but it's not the same since the mom isn't alive anymore.
