Its the oak taste that makes it so great! Its the only ginger ale I like to drink!

You can still get Vernor's in Michigan. The best are Boston coolers or a Vernors float. Its vanilla ice cream and Vernor's. So good.

I found Vernor's in San Diego at Albertson's. It's in the soda aisle--not with the other ginger ale.

vernors in southern california at all grocery stores almost.

Yes, available all over socal (Ralph's, Staters, etc.)...but is the sickest g-ale that's akin to swigging vinegar.

The Vernor's that is available now isn't the original. What I drank was made in Columbus OH, I believe. (a history I found says it was founded in Detroit) Bottled in glass with a gnome logo. (mid to late 80's) The old Vernor's was great! The new stuff is alright ... I guess.

I've been drinking Vernors since the 80's. I don't remember a change in taste but I'm not a Vernors connoisseur. Though I do question whether it should be listed under 80's food as it was first made in 1862 and is still being made today. Next people will add bread (sliced and otherwise).

Duke- Vernors is Vernors, it is the same, the only difference is its being made by dr. pepper and associates, so unless you were born before 1966, I doubt you were actually drinking the original. Ryan- If you read the beginning of the site you would see this is not just for food that came out in the 80's but also food that was POPULAR in the 80's and as I recall it was very popular then.

Uhmm I remember Vernors Gingerale so strong it made me cough a little...It did wonders for my stomach aches...It isn't as strong as it used to be so I disagree with Dana, and agree with Duke...

I used to drink Vernors in the 60's, I agree with Duke & John. This is not Vernors. For one thing, it was made with real ginger, and sugar. It was the strongest flavored Ginger Ale around.
