I'm guessing one of the major supermarkets would do it. I'd check Tesco, then Asda and then Sainsburys.
May be worth checking Aldi and Lidl as well. They have random shit like that.

the caffine content in it is like 10 double expressos or summat like that, its rocket fuel, like pro plus and speed it has a huge come down tho.

also addicted ;)
Barq's is the only one worth drinking, none of this mug with the dog on the can..
asda do american soda and a few places do mountain dew but its just not the same is it...
I used ot get it through a company called american soda, they operate on ebay and that
paid about £10 for 8 cans I think.
Well worth it

After reading this last night I decided to buy some root beer from asda to try it. Yuck! I can't decide whether it tastes more like germoline or savlon! But it's one of those and I do not like either!

I love this stuff but in the UK it tastes crap!
Ice cold A&W FTW!!!
Smells like a cleaning product but it quite refreshing!
