Best Ginger Ale
 
I like Canada Dry's very much.

What about y'all? :)

Blenheim Ginger Ale from South Carolina.

I love Ginger Beer-the real spicy ones with so much ginger kick they are hot and sometimes need to be cut with soda water :D
The ones from Jamacia are very good.

Luscombe Ginger Beer is delicious

There's a hot and cool version, I've only tried the 'hot' kind.

Fond of Blenheim, but find it a bit vanillary. Used to like
Vernor's when Vernor's was Vernor's.

I got hooked on Almdudler when I was in Austria a few years ago.

I like Canada Dry as well, but probably only because it's always what I had when flying UA as a kid.

I do like Whole Foods' generic Ginger Ale for its organic approach (meaning sugar cane, not processed sugars). It also mixes well for a jack + ginger. :)

Reed's Ginger Brews, especially the Extra Ginger Brew. It's ruined Canada Dry for me, which now to me tastes like carbonated sugar water.

I first learned of it while working at Trader Joe's in SF.

I'm a fan of Polar ginger ale (Massachusetts company). They make the golden kind too. It's mostly nostalgia; I usually bring a case back after visiting the family in Boston.

Anyone from Michigan or northern Ohio knows there's none better than Vernor's Ginger Ale. :D

Vernor's Ginger ale
 
Being from Detroit and also being a traveler, I have tried them all, but Vernor's is still the best. Try with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
