I was wondering if anybody lives in a town where they sell Hires root beer at the grocery store? They use to have in San Diego,CA back in the 70's and they had it in Yuma, Arizona in the 90's but I haven't seen it since.

I have seen it in online soda stores but I'm wondering where they get their supply...

I have not seen that brand in such a long time, it is good. Here is the HIRE's link you can contact them and ask if there is a local distributor.

I am pretty sure I saw Hires at one of the grocery stores or costco's in the LA/OC area recently.

Wow! If you see it in an OC grocery store let me know which one. I go to OC on the weekends.

Was that a west coast or east coast item?

Make it a day trip for your favorite beverage....If you are going to the OC just keep on driving.

I've seen it on the west coast. Never been on the east coast.

I usually don't go further north than San Juan Capistrano. I was planning on doing a day trip to either the Getty Museum or Chinatown later this year and check out the soda store along the way. I really hate going through the L.A. traffic along the 5.
