alright, so i got a 6 pack of this stuff when i was visiting people in Atlanta. it was at one of those natural grocery stores. i tried a couple of cans there but brought a couple home to try too. why, i do not know. especially now when i try it again. this is SO bad. granted it has no artificial sweeteners which is a plus. which means no cancer or brain tumor or liver damage risk i guess. but it tastes just like this medicine i used to have to have to take as a child to control my coughing from the asthma. the after taste is actually decent. it is that initial kick that stinks up the joint. it does sort of taste like some tropical fruit gone wrong.

ok, so i have had this for like 3 years in my refrigerator and just noticed it. i am a bit wary to drink it, but i shall, for you, my loyal readers. ok, it sucks. very high carbonation, which seems to be the case often for diet sodas. probably in a futile attempt to mask the awful diet sweetener taste. have i mentioned that i hate diet sodas lately? cuz i do. especially root beers. they taste nothing like root beer. this one especially. it is more of a very fizzy seltzer with a very faint root beer hint. whatever, i am dumping the rest of this out.

Flathead Lake Monster Rootbeer

the carbonation is very low in this soda. the taste is not as low but it is more of a “natural” root beer taste. perhaps that stems from the use of real sugar. it is not so much a bad taste, it is just not all the yummy. perhaps it is too sweet or something as a body could feel a little ill after finishing a bottle of the brew. i like it to sip and probably to drink with some food, but standing alone, it falls a little short.

well, i think i may have gotten a bum bottle of this. and since it is so pricey to mail order i only got the one. oh well. i will assume this is how it is supposed to be. i’ve probably seen this before in fact but since it looks so much like the root beer bottle i overlooked it. or maybe not. who knows? i will check next time i am at the place i got the other 2 bottles. once again the taste is hard to find. even less subtle than the root beer in fact. just sweet really with a slight taste of something. i guess it could be some sort of root taste. it is not an offensive taste, it is just bland and sweet.
