A couple of weeks ago I ran across some Schweppes ginger beer in a local grocery store. [For Bay Area residents, it was Nob Hill Foods.] Unfortunately, since that time I've been unable to locate it again. Schweppes ginger beer is definitely different than their ginger ale. My question is: has anyone else run across this beverage, and if so, how does it differ from British ginger beer? Since Schweppes is a British company there's some hope that the American and British versions may be the same. -- John Bruner (S-1 Project, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) MILNET: jdb@mordor.ARPA [jdb@s1-c] (415) 422-0758 UUCP: ...!ucbvax!dual!mordor!jdb ...!decvax!decwrl!mordor!jdb
