Sprecher Lo-Cal Root Beer Soda

Ok so i have not opened this yet and i must admit i am intruiged, instead of going for the 0 calories as most diet sodas do, there are 15 calories per 8 oz serving here. they have mixed the 3 sweeteners of their regular root beer with aspartame to get a reduced calorie beverage. and you probably burn off those 30 calories hauling this heavy 16 oz bottle up to your pie hole anyway. ok, trying it. hhhmmm, not half bad. yeh, it has a slight aspartame aftertaste but it is nearly as bad or overpowering or long lasting as most diet sodas are. of course it is no where near as good as their regular soda. it has that metallic diet thing happening a little too much for my tastes. but if i had to drink diet, i suppose i’d get this. yet, if i HAD to have diet soda, i would think it would be because i could not have sugar at all and this does have sugar so the only reason to have this is if you are dieting i suppose and if you have seen me and think i need to diet, well, you are quite wrong.

Napa Valley Soda Co Root Beer

ok, i will admit i try to eat as much organic food and as much sweet food as possible, but never have I heard of “invert sugar” let alone invert sugar of the organic variety. i think it is time for google to flex its muscle. ok well, i don’t quite get it but i think the idea is that invert sugar is sweeter with less carbohydrates than regular sugar but when i check the nutrition info, this has more carbs than pretty much any soda i have seen before. oh well. that is actually the only part of it that is organic. i suppose the carmel color is all natural as is the citric acid huh? so the taste is alright, a little more cane sugary than i would have expected and no real head to speak of. but still not bad. it does taste similar to other of the more “natural” kind of root beers and it probably as good as any of them. i may not seek it out, but i would not turn it down.
Ingredients:carbonated water, organic invert sugar, caramel color, citric acid, and natural flavor

Cott Premium Draft Root Beer

a little unusual, once I saw this stuff once, i saw it a lot. although that might have more to do with the fact that I was in the south and it is more prevelant in the area I was in. I suppose it is a mass produced sort of soda, judging from their website, even though it is in a fine glass bottle. yet, it is rather good actually. creamy, smooth, sweet. it is a shame that it is not available closer to me, i would get this more regularly than any other of the more mass produced glass bottle sodas. oh well, such is life, especially for me these days.

Food Lion Root Beer

eh, another generic root beer. fine in taste, but nothing new or interesting really. which of course is what one would want from a store brand root beer i guess, right? actually if you made liquid root beer barrel candies, this is what it would taste like so i suppose it is how root beer should be or something.
Ingredients:carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, sodium benzoate (preservative), natural and artificial flavors
