Northern Neck Found Closer to Home

beverage

There are ladies at my job who amaze me. I, when in the right setting, can be quite the talker. With the slightest provocation I am prone to tell them what I Iike. In a previous post I gushed about my favorite ginger ale. I still believe that Northern Neck is the tastiest ginger ale in a can and I shared my love of the golden beverage with one of the ladies (as well as how hard it is for me to find).

Well, my birthday was just a few days ago. When I walk to my desk, one of the first things I see is a lovely green case of Northern Neck waiting for me with a card. How on earth they can remember things I say is beyond me.

Of course I just had to go thank her and when I did she told me she found it at a local grocery store. Well this is awesome for me. It won’t take long for me to fly through the sodas she gave me, but I do so armed with the knowledge that more are now only a short drive away.

The Tasty Bubbles of Northern Neck

beverage, food, General

Northern Neck Ginger AleI fully expected to be regaling about the sumptuous spread on a class reunion dinner cruise but that wouldn’t be right. Although there were numerous offerings on the menu it paled in comparison to the fun I had catching up with my classmates.

While we were talking and I was sipping on a $5 ginger ale, the subject of Northern Neck ginger ale came into the conversation. I am not sure of the reach of the soda brand, but whenever I see it, I buy it. This brand is more ginger than ale which sets it apart.  This is no quiet mixer that needs to be propped up like the looker with no personality. No, this ginger ale shows up like the quick witted stunner everyone wants to sit beside at the dinner party. It never disappoints and if it is pared with other ingredients, it brings out the best in them without disappearing into the background. My cousin makes a punch with it that is always a hit. I just wish I could get it closer to home.
