Hi, Anthony,
Well I'm sure you've tried Dominion and Root 66, both from Virginia. Dominion seems to bottle for a number of restaurants, attractions, etc. in the MD, VA and NC area.
My brother lives in VA, and although he keeps a watchful eye, hasn't found anything new lately. A few years back, I spent a year in NC and have several friends there with the same results. I did find a couple of brands in Charlotte - one at an upscale restaurant chain, and another at a place that went out of business.
Haven't spent much time in WV - I wish I could as I bet there are some undiscovered brands there.
I look forward to hearing what you find along the way...good luck.

You might stop by Jerome Gundrum's (aka Dr. Rootbeer) new place, Doctor Root Beer's Hall of Foam, in Sneads Ferry (near Wilmington), NC.
You can find details here: Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!
It seems like half of the pictures in Tom Morrison's Root Beer Advertising & Collectibles book came from Gundrum's collection. |

sadly i did not get to Greenshields or any other microbrewery. but i got a lot of store brands and some Cotts which I had never had before. and some Hires and Dominion because i can't get either up in NJ.
oh well, maybe next time.
thanks for the help all!
reviews will be up eventually.
