Thumbs up root beer and cigars?
most of the time i have a coke and makers or a bottle of wine with a smoke so tonight i decided to try something different and had a plain old bottle of mugs rootbeer with an IT cameroon legend maduro. and guess what it was pretty good. i thought at first it sounded kinda disgusting but the sugar of the rootbeer and the spicyness of the IT complemented each other very well. just thought i would let you know.

Re: root beer and cigars?
I keep hearing about root beer and cigars. Gonna have to try it. Doubt if it will replace my martini though.

Root beer and cigars? Good combination, I've tried it! I'll have to try the Dr Pepper...maybe tonight! I've tried Baileys Irish Cream and Kahlua, also a chocolate liquor...good with a maduro.

Re: root beer and cigars?
Which is a better complement to the cigar? Barq's, A&W, or IBC?

In a general sense at least. Some cigars I like with certain beverages.

most brewers switched from making beer to root beer during prohibition.

Re: root beer and cigars?
Usually rotate several diet sodas with my smokes on week nights when I don't want to have any alcohol. Best RB I've probably had is Dr. Brown's which I've only seen in one 40's style deli near downtown. I think those are mostly sold in the east coast.
