although it is quite tasty, this root beer is not as amazing as i had hoped or maybe i was just expecting too much from all the praise it has gotten and how highly it came recommended. kind of a less creamy and smooth Saranac. don’t get me wrong though, i like it quite a bit and would definitely get it more if i could.

Ingredients: carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, phosphoric acid, sodium benzoate (as a perservative), natural and artificial color

Head: Small Sweetener: corn sweetener, sugar

alright, the packaging is pretty bad, but this root beer is REALLY good. wow. sweet as the Dickins. and very vanilla. not sweet like a root beer barrel candy, but sweet like melted ice cream. or if you let your vanilla ice cream in your root beer float melt a lot. a darn good taste. i think i would feel really sick if i drank more than this bottle, but it is just oh so yummy that i may not be able to stop. that is, if i had more than the one bottle. oh well.

Head: Medium Sweetener: high fructose corn syrup

i don’t taste the smoke. that is a good thing, i hate smoked stuff, cheese, meat (well, i don’t eat meat, but i didn’t like it when i did comsume flesh) and so on, so i was wary of this beverage. it has a faint taste of something natural i suppose. not something i love, but i am not offended by it. not too sweet, a little bitter. yeh, it is alright.
