If you like wintergreen and you like sodas you'll like birch beer.

Birch beer was available when I grew up in Buffalo/Niagra Falls area.
It still is when I go back to visit family.

Souix City brand carries birch beer and it's available nationally at
Cost Plus World Market and places that carry small brand sodas. I've
occasionally seen it at the local grocery store section of small brand
sodas.

So far I've only found one brand of diet birch beer. Nasty. Sigh.
