Head: Small Sweetener: sugar, fructose
Caffeine: No

nothing real unique or special yet still a solid root beer. tastes very much like a candy root beer barrel but a bit less sweet. that is a good thing to me at least. the carbonation level leaves something to be desired though i think, seeing as how it is so low, producing little head at all. others are worse, but i expected more here for some reason i guess.

Hoffman Draft Style Root Beer

Type: Root Beer Comes In: 12 oz can
Available: discontinued Obtained in: Bound Brook, NJ
Head: Medium Sweetener: high fructose corn syrup

maybe the most generic of the generic root beers, unless there is a no-frills root beer out there. i am not sure why i declare that really, but it just seems to be what is served at cheap barbeques and junk plus it is only like $3 a flat, maybe less. anyhow it is probably also the best of the generics with a flavor all its own. a flavor i just cannot place for the life of me… Aaarg! i hate that… ginger or something perhaps. it does have citric acid so it could be that i suppose.
