hhhmmm, very unique indeed. actually it tastes way more like a black cherry soda than a root beer. i am almost wondering if they put this in the right bottle. i will have to assume they did though for the sake of this review deal. sweet, fruity, yummy goodness. i like black cherry soda actually so i am not at all opposed to this drink. i wouold guess it is made with corn syrup even though no sweetener is listed. the whole ingredient list seems shady but whatever.
Ingredients:caramel color water, natural and artificial flavors, gum arabic quillaia, citric acid, and sodium benzoate

my gosh was this hard to get! many places claim to carry it but every one was out of stock on root beer for the last year or so. until i came upon sodapopstop.com! well, actually ifs ands & butts has it too but nothing else i want so it was not worth ordering there. anyway… tasty beverage. a little watery. some would say that that makes it have a subtle flavor but i just say it is watered down in this case. i don’t dislike it but it does not set itself apart from other drinks really to me.

hhhhmmm, well this is the soda of Real Soda In Real Bottles (realsoda.com) supposedly but they don’t carry it on the website. they probably have it in their retail store in Torrence, CA i don’t think it has any connection to the old brand of the same name, but it might… and it is made by the Monarch Company who also make Dad’s. now, i have not had Dad’s in a while myself so i am not sure, but i think this is different. pretty creamy with a bit of an herbal kick. nonetheless i am not a big fan. it makes my tummy feel a little weird. perhaps it is too sweet? nah, i don’t think that is possible. i love my sweetness.
Ingredients:carbonated water, sugar, caramel color, sodium benzoate (to preserve), citric acid, natural and artificial flavors
