In the United States , Dad's Root Beer has been a true legend since its creation in 1937 in Chicago. While its soft drink is iconic across the Atlantic, its related candies are just as popular! These famous "Root Beer Barrels" are the quintessential symbol of traditional American confectionery of yesteryear (the famous Old Fashioned hard candy ).

Inside this attractive 113g (4.0 oz) box, you'll find a variety of individually wrapped hard candies, perfect for slipping into a bag, pocket, or glove compartment. Their unique grooved barrel shape is a nod to the wooden casks in which the original brew was historically brewed and aged. The candy melts very slowly in your mouth, releasing that distinctive and indescribable Root Beer flavor—herbaceous, sweet, and subtly vanilla—that has captivated Europeans and delighted Americans for generations.

The 100% American tip (The "Root Beer Float Candy"): If you love the famous American dessert Root Beer Float (a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream dipped in a tall glass of fizzy root beer), try enjoying one of these candies with a scoop of smooth vanilla ice cream! The contrast between the hard sarsaparilla candy and the creamy sweetness of the vanilla recreates all the magic of this classic American diner dessert.
