SCORE!!! My Favorite DRINK!!! 
posted by John at 6:19 PM

How happy am I? Back in the day, I would join up with friends at the Black Sheep in Ashland. I usually ordered rarebit and bangers & mash and the thing that made the occasion complete was Stewart's Ginger Beer. And then one day, I ordered ginger beer and they brought me Reed's instead. Now nothing against Reed's (their Spiced Apple is my #2...and their CANDY & Ice Cream (but that is for a different time...)), but it ain't Stewart's.

I started cruising the places I used to be able to find it... the most reliable source was the wonderful little Quality Market on East Jackson in Medford. But alas, it was no longer available from the distributor! As Charlie Brown would say: "Auuuuuuugh!!!"

So I am in St. Paul (thus making the Charlie Brown reference more apropos) and doing a quick shopping run in Kowalski's (which for you Southern Oregon folks is kinda like Cantwell's used to be)... and lo and behold, STEWART'S!!

The plan now is to bring a case or two home to Oregon for the summer. :) And they make a Birch Beer, too - something I haven't been able to reliably find from any bottler since I was in college in Connecticut. YUMMMM.
