another purchase from this fine web store! just goes to show you that you can scour a city or whatever pretty well and miss a ton of sodas as i have been to portland a couple times in the past year or so and came up totally empty. oh well. so this is a solid soda, probably one of the better ones i have had in a while. a complex flavor, which i’d expect as it contains “wintergreen oil, anise, vanilla, spices, herbs” and more. i can taste the wintergreen but not so much the anise. i suppose very subtly. yeh, definitely, it is coming out more as i drink. in theory i don’t like anise much, but when it is not strong and overpowering as here or in a couple other brews i enjoy it. this is a unique beverage in a sea of many many sodas that taste too similar.

Satisfying root beer. I wish it had a little more bite to it. However good stuff
It was ok. Too minty for me. It has a strong wintergreen flavor to it. But a decent brew I suppose.
