Americana Microcrafted Cream Style Root Beer

September 30, 2000
Filed under: root beer reviews — anthony @ 5:10 pm
Type: Root Beer Comes In: 12oz glass bottle
Available: AZ, OK, WA Obtained in: mail from popsoda.com
Head: Medium Sweetener: cane sugar
Caffeine: No

they only brew 600 gallons at a time, they say. which seems like a lot. but hey, i am no brewer so i dunno how big a batch of regular soda would be. also contains a bunch of wacky things like Extracts of Vanilla, Licorice, Sassafras Root Bark (does a root have a bark?!), and Aracia Extract. the licorice is very subtle, but there if you really pay attention i suppose. overall the root beer is pretty good though. one of those “sippin root beers” really, where the flavor does not hit you until you put the bottle down. creamy. pretty smooth. i approve. carry on.

Jack Black’s Dead Red Root Beer

September 20, 2000
Filed under: root beer reviews — anthony @ 5:49 pm
Type: Root Beer Comes In: 12oz glass bottle
Available: CA, OK, online Obtained in: mail from popsoda.com
Head: Tiny Sweetener: high fructose corn syrup
Caffeine: Yes

there is just so little actual taste here it is hard to say anything about this. it is caffeinated which is weird. and the bottle is nice looking. but it tastes like barely anything. a little bit of a spicey taste i guess. not offensive, but not good and the caffeine knocks it down more.
