The Krystal Company, the brand famous for its iconic square hamburgers, is celebrating National Root Beer Day all week. From August 8 through August 12, Krystal will offer its Root Beer floats at a special price of $0.99 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. in participating locations.

The Krystal Float is made with a blend of cold and frosty Barq's Root Beer, plus a scoop of creamy Blue Bunny vanilla bean ice cream.

"Nothing quite says 'summer' like a Root Beer Float,” says Alice Crowder, vice president of marketing for the Krystal Company. “It's the perfect way to refresh on a long, hot day. Sweet and foamy, ice cold and just a tiny bit decadent; there's nothing better.”

Krystal recommends pairing the Float with Krystal's latest menu addition, premium boneless wings, which come hand-tossed in a tangy barbecue or spicy buffalo sauce.  

"At Krystal, we believe no celebration is complete without great food and drinks," Crowder says. "Sometimes one day is just too short to celebrate the best things in life, and we're looking forward to celebrating our great Floats all week long."
