a guy who i work with is from michigan and had an empty can of vernors on his desk, which spurred a conversation. apparently there isn't any places in the greater boston area that sells vernors. shipping would cost $12 for 1 case to be shipped ( Read more... )

I'm in Michigan!

Remember to not inhale when you drink it.

Actually, I found a place out here in Eugene, Oregon that sells vernor's. Yeah, that was a good day. And Diet Vernors even, which is better.

Cream soda? Really? I've never thought that. It's always been ginger ale to me!

i remember that post, so i had to make sure i mentioned you <3

it has such a unique flavor, that that's my best approximation, since to me it has more of a vanilla taste than a ginger taste.

And the place here is like $3 for a six pack of cans. So like regular price.

nice! wish it was that cheap here.

What a good friend you are! We Michigan folk always think of Vernors AS ginger ale and everything else is a fake. If we have Michigan visitors driving here, we must remember to have them bring some for you, too.

See, I'm not from the northern states and, thus, have never heard of or tasted Vernors. However, my boyfriend and I are constantly trying to find a cheap way to get Dublin (Texas) Dr. Pepper shipped to where we live in Georgia. The Dublin Dr. Pepper is made of cane sugar instead of corn syrup. It's so yummy and doesn't have the aftertaste that the usual Dr. Pepper does.

See now what you've gotta do is become a Vernors reseller! Set up shop and sell it at a slight markup. You could even start by giving free Vernors shots to get hem addicted!

I remember back when Vernors was an amazing and special drink. In Indiana, I get it at the local Walmart.
