You can get ginger beer, cream soda and a dandilion & burdock flavours too in the same old style bottles from Barr too.

Ahh Mr Freeze, I remember my mum buying my sister and I a whole box of these from the cash & carry to last us through the summer holidays.
I distinctly remember sitting down on the floor sharing out the various flavours one for me one for you making sure I wasn't underdone on the cola ones, they were our favourite.
